LINE Games Unveils Hello Kitty Friends Match: A New Match 3 Puzzle Game

If you've grown up with Sanrio characters or still hold a fondness for Hello Kitty and her friends, there’s a delightful new addition to your gaming world. Developed by LINE Games and their affiliate Super Awesome, the game Hello Kitty Friends Match 3 is now available in select regions.

Available in the Philippines and Canada, with a full global launch planned for the first half of 2025, this mobile match-3 puzzle game is worth checking out—even if you’re not a fan of the genre. For those outside these regions, you can pre-register on the Google Play Store to stay in the loop.

While match-3 games may seem familiar, Hello Kitty Friends Match 3 introduces some refreshing twists. Unlike traditional vertical layouts, this game plays in landscape mode, offering a more relaxed and visually appealing experience. The larger icons ensure you won’t strain your eyes while matching candies—or in this case, Sanrio-inspired treats.

Dreamland serves as the vibrant backdrop for your puzzle-solving journey. Here, you’ll team up with beloved characters like Hello Kitty, My Melody, Kuromi, Cinnamoroll, Pompompurin, and more. Together, you'll embark on a magical quest to collect star power and restore their home. The game seamlessly blends casual puzzles with a charming storyline, making each level feel like a mini-adventure.

Collecting characters is a key feature, allowing you to gather 10 distinct Sanrio characters and unlock over 100 unique costumes. Early bird rewards are available for pre-registrants, even if you're not in the soft-launch areas.

As LINE Games’ first mobile release of the year, Hello Kitty Friends Match 3 offers a cozy escape with its iconic cast and engaging gameplay. Pre-register today or dive into the fun if you’re already in a soft-launch region. And don’t forget to check out our next article on Azur Promilia, the upcoming game from Azur Lane’s creators!
