Summary
Considering there is still no telling how long it is until we hear anything Hearts 4, let alone get the chance to play it, it’s impressive just how much of the video game spotlight Sora and the rest of hisDisneybuddies are hogging right now.The series' arrival on Steamlast week has a lot to do with that, coupled withKingdom Heartsfans always wanting Kingdom Hearts merch, new game or not. If you’re one of those Kingdom Hearts fans, volume two of its lo-fi soundtrack is now onAmazon.
Arranged by foreteller, The Ocean Between was released in 2023 and has finally found its way onto Amazon. Not only that, but if you pre-order it now through the link below, you can get it for 12 percent off, down to $33.34 from the usual $38. The artist started piecing together the collection of lo-fi Kingdom Hearts music at the start of the pandemic, spurred on by the need for people to find different ways to relax more than ever before.
The Ocean Between includes lo-fi versions of ten tracks spread across the Kingdom Hearts series and yes, Simple And Clean is on there. In fact, it’s the opening track. There’s a real mix of popular songs and deep cuts on there as foreteller has pulled from every corner of the Kingdom Hearts universe. Tracks from every main game in the series so far, but also some themes from 358/2 Days and Birth By Sleep thrown in there for good measure.
Kingdom Hearts And Lo-Fi Beats, The Perfect Combo
Kingdom Hearts Vol.2 - The Ocean Between Original Soundtrack
The second volume in a collection featuring lo-fi versions of tracks from throughout the Kingdom Hearts series, The Ocean Between starts with a kicked-back Simple And Clean and proceeds to take you on a relaxing musical journey through the Kingdom Hearts universe.
The only downside to ordering The Ocean Between through Amazon is how long you’ll have to wait for it to arrive. It’s a pre-order situation and the vinyl won’t be released until Jun 08, 2025. There’s a silver lining if you may’t wait that long, though. As noted, volume two of the Kingdom Hearts lo-fi collection was released in 2023. That meansnot only can you buy it at Materiaand get it sooner, but the store on which the soundtrack originally launched also has the same lo-fi OST available on CD or cassette tape if you’d prefer them over the vinyl version.
There are a lot of ways you can make yourself feel better about the long wait for Kingdom Hearts 4, and one of them won’t cost you a thing. It will be a roll of the dice if you actually get anything though as the free way to satisfy your Kingdom Hearts hungeris via a sweepstake. The winner of the sweepstake will get a Steam Deck Kingdom Hearts bundle signed by Tetsuya Nomura, and there are runner-up prizes available too.
