Finally! This is some fantastic unexpected news! I’ll definitely be buying them (again) on Steam! 

I knew this would be coming to Steam once Square announced they focusing on multi platform releases. Didn't expect them to do it so soon though.

Personally, It's a little too late for me. I would've purchased them if they launched the same time as EGS. But I'm going to wait for a deep sale to add these to my library if I even decide to in the future.

This does give me hope of future games releasing on launch day on Steam. That was one of my biggest concerns with the series going forward.

What about KH Melody of Memory?

Hopefully that one will come later on. My assumption would be that they're holding off on it so they can do a separate release as opposed to throwing it into Integrum Masterpiece

In the Dead of the Night evil will find her. In the Dead of the Night just before dawn.

FINALLY!!! I am literally shaking with excitement. There have been several times where I almost buckled and bought them through Epic Games, but I kept telling myself that their exclusivity on Epic Games couldn't last forever. I've been emulating the original versions on my Steam Deck to tide myself over. SO STOKED!!!!

That's cool and all, but a few question do cross my mind

- Are we talking about full price, or somewhat of a discount? Given the fact these remasters are some years old, we shouldn't be forced into paying full price imo

- As a mod enjoyer, I hope they keep the same configuration that the EPS versions use, AKA LUa files. Does this also mean 3rd party apps like Mod Manager and Patch Manager are compatible with the Steam version?

 

Other than that, it is cool that I can hunt for achievements once again and deck out my Steam profile with KH related stuff

And of course, more people are going to be exposed to the madness that is this franchise (in a good way, that is)

Probably going to backseat some of my friends on the older games 

Still holding out for a switch release.

Hey, I can daydream! KH 1 is so old at this point, they could cram it onto a switch cartridge 

how much money does it cost?

The only pricing info I was able to find was from the Japanese SE announcement post saying 

1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX and 2.8 will be ¥7,480 --> $47.73 USD

KH3 + Re Mind for ¥9,680 --> $61.75 USD

Integrum Masterpiece ¥17,160 --> 109.44 USD

The actual list price might be a bit different but at least this provides some type of idea, hope that helps!

What is an integrum masterpiece
