Last night, Square Enix revealed that Kingdom Hearts III’s opening theme, a new composition for the third game in the main series. The previous two titles featured tracks “Simple and Clean” and “Sanctuary” from Japanese popstar Utada Hikaru. Kingdom Hearts III’s track, titled “Don’t Think Twice,” is also created and performed by Utada Hikaru, but Square-Enix and Disney tapped dubstep artist Skrillex to remix the song, as well. That remix has turned into a collaboration and the new track, “Face My Fears,” is a joint effort between the Japanese popstar, the electronic dance music producer, and Justin Bieber producer Poo Bear.
Square Enix points out that the friendship between Utada Hikaru and Skrillex lead to the new track and its placement in Kingdom Hearts III as the game’s opening music. “Face My Fears” will be released and put on sale on January 19, one week ahead of the game, alongside “Don’t Think Twice,” which was previewed earlier this year and you can find a clip of below.
Kingdom Hearts III is scheduled to release on January 25 on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
