That’s why I’m looking so closely at this, Sony’s reveal of the PS5 interface. Take a look!

The PS5 launches on November 12th, 2020.

The upcoming musically focused Kingdom Hearts game, Melody of Memory, interested me a lot when it was first announced a few weeks ago. However, while I was used to playing rhythm games like Rock Band, Guitar Hero and even THEATRHYTHM I was confused as to how this new game would actually be played. That is no longer the case.

Square Enix has just released a free demo featuring a tutorial and four playable songs for Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory. You can download them right now on your platform of choice including the Nintendo Switch, PS4 or Xbox One. If you download the PS4 version of the demo before December 31, you’ll get a free exclusive theme. On the Nintendo Switch, the demo weighs in at around 550MB.
