While the Switch versions for these three games were announced, there is so far no release date. This will be the first time the mainline games will be available on Switch, although Kingdom Hearts has been on Nintendo's console already thanks to Melody of Memory.
The Switch versions were announced alongside the news that Kingdom Hearts protagonist Sora is heading to Super Smash Bros. as the final DLC character.
