Square Enix Gets Kawaii with New Merch Line

If you like your Final Fantasy smol and adorbs, Square Enix announced last week a new line of merchandise, coming next March, that will start to scratch that itch. The key item in the small collection, to me, is a new music album with twenty songs including one from every mainline game; this list contains a few tracks that seem like they would be pretty confusing to get the "cute" treatment, which really makes me all the more interested in hearing it. The album will be in CD format and will be the Japanese release even if bought worldwide, and is listed at $30.

The album art contains a new illustration with a ton of cute illustrations of Final Fantasy heroines and creatures, to the extent that I can't pick a favorite. The same art is reflected on some other merch, as well, but pretty standard fare including t-shirts and a tote. In my opinion, the keychain is probably the best option both based on price and how well the album cover design translates to the products.

Preorders for all of the merchandise are open now and preorders of the album also include a sticker of the new SQKawaii branding on the album cover.
