The game was originally released in 2007 on the Nintendo DS to positive reviews. The game was ported to mobile devices on iOS and Android in 2012 and on Nintendo Switch in 2018 as The World Ends with You: Final Remix. The Switch release included updated controls, co-op, and a new scenario.

Here is the game’s synopsis:

Complete the mission…or face erasure. That’s all Neku knows after regaining consciousness in the middle of a busy intersection without his memories. Now he and his partner must fight to survive a life-or-death game in this twisted tale with more turns than the urban labyrinth of Tokyo they’re trapped in.
