UPDATE: Kingdom Hearts 20th Anniversary Tamagotchi Announced; October 2022 Release

Bandai Japan and Square Enix have announced new merchandise to celebrate the Kingdom Hearts series’ 20-year anniversary, Tamagotchi, for some reason. There are 2 devices customers can purchase, Dark Mode and Light Mode, which don’t differ regarding functionality.

UPDATE 12/3/2022: The Dark Mode and Light Mode Tamagotchis are available for purchase via Amazon for $24.99.

Information regarding these Tamagotchi has been summarized by our team’s Ryuji, viewable below:

General Information

Two types of the egg shell exist. In the example image posted below, Sora is Dark Mode, Kairi is Light Mode. Whichever you choose is up to your own personal preference.

There will be over 20 characters to play as, but the way it works is that if you buy the Tamagotchi, it will start off with KH1 Sora, and have the chance to grow up into another randomly.

Kingdom Hearts Tamagotchi – How To Play

You can feed the character Paopu Fruit or Sea-Salt Ice Cream. Sometimes Heartless will appear on the screen, and you can defeat them.

Pre-orders for these products are available from March 28, 2022, through May 5, 2022, for ¥3,100, with October 2022 shipments planned. Reliable retailer Aitai Kuji has the Dark Mode and Light Mode items prepared for pre-order.
