Rhapsody: 25th Anniversary Collection announced for PS5, Switch

Nippon Ichi Software has announced Rhapsody: 25th Anniversary Collection for PlayStation 5 and Switch, the latest issue of Weekly Famtisu reveals. It will launch physically on August 29 in Japan for 10,978 yen, and includes a set of original artwork reprints, an art book, the original soundtrack, and a special box.

Rhapsody: 25th Anniversary Collection will feature the full Rhapsody series—Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure, Rhapsody II: Ballad of the Little Princess, and Rhapsody III: Memories of Marl Kingdom.

In the west, Nippon Ichi Software’s western branch NIS America released a collection called Rhapsody: Marl Kingdom Chronicles on August 29, 2023 in North America and September 1, 2023 in Europe. However, unlike Rhapsody: 25th Anniversary Collection, Rhapsody: Marl Kingdom Chronicles only includes Rhapsody II: Ballad of the Little Princess and Rhapsody III: Memories of Marl Kingdom, and not Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure.

In Japan, both Rhapsody II: Ballad of the Little Princess and Rhapsody III: Memories of Marl Kingdom are already available for PlayStation 5 and Switch as individual digital releases. Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure is also available for Switch as a digital purchase in Japan, and via Prinny Presents NIS Classics Volume 3 in the west. Rhapsody: 25th Anniversary Collection will mark the first time it is available for PlayStation 5, and the PlayStation 5 version will also be available as an individual digital release for 3,278 yen.
