Hello Kitty Island Adventure claws its way onto Switch today

Hello Kitty Island Adventure is finally launching on Switch today, and you can pick this one up digitally or physically.

Discover eight unique regions, from the ocean’s depths to an island in the clouds! Run, float, swim, and dive around the world to uncover hidden treasures and mysteries, all while listening to over 50 tracks of original music.

Engage with stories both epic and cozy, from braving volcanoes filled with treacherous lava to throwing birthday parties for all your new friends, all while piecing together the ultimate secret behind Friendship Island.

Whether it’s cheerful Hello Kitty, mischievous Kuromi, or sweet Cinnamoroll, there are over 40 iconic Hello Kitty and Friends characters to meet, befriend, and adventure alongside. How do you improve friendship? Cooking and crafting galore! Create beautiful recipes at cooking stations or craft the items you find into the perfect gifts for all your new friends!

Each character has a unique role on the island and their own likes, activities, and interests. Once you’ve bolstered your friendship, invite your favorite characters to adventure alongside you and gain their special power-ups and abilities!

Renovate cabins and decorate them to attract new visitors to the island, like Hello Kitty’s twin sister Mimmy. These new visitors can unlock special quests and even entire new storylines!

Create your perfect avatar. Choose from six species with different face options, inclusive body types, and unique colors and patterns—all based on the Hello Kitty & Friends world. Collect, discover, and customize hundreds of clothing options to find your favorite look!

Buy and tailor furniture to create your dream home aesthetic, with over 30 furniture sets to mix and match and countless ways to change color, pattern, and style.

There’s always something new to do on the Island with year-round events. Whether you’re celebrating the joys of summertime, ringing in a holiday, or throwing a party for a character’s special birthday, there are always new festivals (and rewards!) around the corner.

Keep your eye on the weather, too! Weather events like Starfall, Rainstorms, and Steamy days will encourage new critters to appear, chests to spawn, rewards to collect, and other surprises.

Hidden puzzle ruins are scattered all over the island—test your skills to unlock bonus rewards and solve the island’s mysteries.

Watch your island spring to life with flowers of all shapes and sizes! Cultivate your gardens to breed rare and exotic varieties, colors, and patterns to impress your friends (and because gardening is fun).

The island is teeming with life—kick back and fish in the clear waters or hunt for rare critters with your net. Donate them to the Nature Preserve to give them a safe place to live and grow your collection.

Dive into a multiplayer game with real-world friends. Team up to explore, get bonuses, and solve challenges together. Complete social quests to level up your friendship, unlock unique emotes, and gain special bonuses like trading rare items and clothing.
