If you've been waiting to play the Kingdom Hearts trilogy on the Nintendo Switch, your wait is almost over. Square Enix has announced that the three games, Kingdom Hearts - HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMixKingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, and Kingdom Hearts III, are coming to the console via cloud download starting February 10. It'll be priced at US$90 when it launches, but you can get a discount if you pre-order now for US$72. You can also opt to pick individual titles instead of the bundle. If you buy the all-in-one collection or just the Kingdom Hearts III version, you'll get the Advent Red Keyblade to use in the Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind (DLC).

Since the game arrives as a cloud version, you will need a fast and stable internet connection to get a decent experience. As Engadget pointed out, it seems like a waste that the developer didn't remake the game to run directly on the Switch, given titles like Witcher 3 and the Assassin's Creed collection will run directly on the console.
