It looks as stylish as ever. Every now and then something comes along that sets itself up perfectly as a cult classic. The World Ends With You is exactly that. We’ve seen a re-release on iPhone and Android, but honestly, the Switch seems a far better fit. We can’t wait to play it on the big screen. The Final Remix offers more than new controls. The music has been remixed, and a two-player co-op mode has been added. For fans new and old, it seems as though The World Ends With You Switch will be a great, and worthwhile purchase.
