Publisher Rogue Games and developer Dabadu Games have today announced that the rhythm dance game, Hello Kitty and Friends Happiness Parade, will be bringing some cute choreography our way on 26th October.
This one will see you teaming up with the titular Kitty and a handful of familiar faces including Kerokerokeroppi, Badtz-Maru and Pompompurin as you "bring joy to the universe" through the medium of — you guessed it — dance. There are 40 different tracks for you to shake your Joy-Con to and a boatload of unlockables to pick up along the way.
If it sounds a little repetitive, that's because it probably is, but surely there is room here for a decent amount of fun if you are a fan of the Hello Kitty universe (HKU? Is that a thing? We hope not). For a little more information about the game itself and a look at some screenshots, check out the following from the publishers.
HELLO KITTY AND FRIENDS HAPPINESS PARADE stars the iconic Sanrio girl and 10 of her adorable buds like Kerokerokeroppi, Badtz-Maru, Pompompurin and more as they step the beat and roll to the rhythm of over 40 tracks - including 20 new tunes curated exclusively for Switch - to bring joy to the universe.
