The game is a rhythm action title developed by Malaysian studio Metronomik, and it is scheduled for release in 2027 on Nintendo Switch 2. The protagonist, Kaya, aims to become a World Builder, a figure who creates worlds. To reach that goal, she travels through islands filled with rhythm, solving mysteries and taking on trials along the way. The central mechanic is a Magic Spoon that gives rhythm to whatever it scoops. Footage shown during the presentation included scenes of the spoon moving giant objects. The game combines rhythm-based play with puzzle-solving, as Kaya uses both timing and insight to overcome the challenges on each island. The announcement came as part of the broader Nintendo Direct 2026.9.9 showcase, which included multiple third-party and first-party reveals.","whyItMatters":"The game marks Bandai Namco Entertainment Asia publishing a rhythm action title from Malaysian developer Metronomik for Nintendo Switch 2, a pairing that expands the publisher's lineup beyond its usual franchises.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eMetronomik, the studio behind the project, is based in Malaysia.
