Shimomura-signed BBS/358 soundtrack in lottery sale

Square Enix has listed a hand-signed reprint of the Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep and 358/2 Days Original Soundtrack, with Yoko Shimomura's signature applied to each copy. The store page notes each copy is opened once for the signature writing and that the ink may show smudged-like traces from the materials. The discs carry the same music as the 2011 release SQEX-10213-5: original-version tracks from Birth by Sleep, 358/2 Days, Re:coded, and Birth by Sleep Final Mix across 3 CDs and 80 tracks. To be clear, this is the same recording set, not a new performance or arrangement.

The sale is a lottery, not first-come-first-served. Entry is open until September 22, 2026 at 00:00, limited to one copy per person, and orders cannot be cancelled after September 4. Payment is restricted to credit card or Square Enix Crysta. The deadline is the part that matters: the page lists it as a limited-time lottery product with entry closing at that time.

Price is ¥3,981, with release and delivery set for October 10, 2026. A signature from Shimomura turns a straight reprint into a collector piece, and it lands in a busy merch season alongside the 25th anniversary exhibition goods and the recent Sora and Axel figure announcements.
