Here’s a rundown on the game, via its store page:

Experience a new dimension of rhythm game in a forgotten world filled with memories…

Each awakens without any memories in a barren, pale world of ruined buildings and dry oceans. Only the drifting, glass shard-like memories offer any sense of life in this world… but where will the memories lead them?

Features:

  • Two play types: traditional touch gameplay joins a new play type that uses the Joy-Con™ controllers
  • Over 150 songs from over 90 different artists in a multitude of electronic genres
  • A brand-new song pack, Divided Heart, containing five songs, the new Partner Shirahime, and a new storyline
  • Three difficulties for every song, ranging from easier songs for those experiencing rhythm games for the first time all the way to extreme challenges that will
  • make even the most hardcore rhythm game fans sweat
  • A completely revamped progression system for unlocking new songs, characters, and stories—all playable offline

As their story unravels, a timeless tale is told once again—
