Kingdom Hearts is enjoying its 20th anniversary in 2022, and Sony has just announced that it will not let this occasion go unmarked without limited-edition devices. The electronics giant has chosen one of its personal audio peripheral flagships for this purpose, with might go with the modern-day Walkman variant to match.

The Sony WF-1000XM4 Kingdom Hearts 20th Anniversary Limited Edition (or WF-1000XM4/KH20) set of TWS earbuds come in black, as with many of its standard counterparts. However, in this case, the finish acts as a background for an elaborate, appropriately-themed new paint job.

The Sony Walkman NW-A105 - one of the OEM's updated media players with the classic branding - has gotten the same treatment, along with a new and possibly exclusive skin for the Android-based UI visible with its color TFT screen.

It is set at 36,000 yen (~US$282) for 16GB of total storage and no headphones in the box, whereas the new WF-1000XM4/KH20s go for 34,000 yen (~$266) on Sony Japan's Walkman web-store.

These WF-1000XM4s might be plain black, but they can just be ordered on Amazon today.
