Square Enix lists Final Fantasy IX “A Place to Call Home” music box

Square Enix has listed a compact Final Fantasy IX music box built around “A Place to Call Home,” the game's main theme. Despite a headline that made the item sound like a new release, this is merchandise rather than a newly announced game.

The official UK product page describes a black music box measuring approximately 5.99 by 5.30 by 3.98 centimeters. The lid carries the Final Fantasy IX logo and the song title, while the mechanism plays the game's main theme.

Square Enix lists the UK price at £24.99 and gives an approximate October 2026 release. The store warns that the date can change and that imported orders may face customs delays.

The North American listing charges $25.99 and currently offers the item through an Add to Cart button. That page still shows a July 2026 release date, creating a regional mismatch with the UK preorder page. The difference means there is no single worldwide launch date supported by the current listings.

Square Enix presents the box as part of a broader line that turns music from across the Final Fantasy series into small collectibles. The company says the case designs draw from scenes associated with each song. It does not provide the music box's materials, track duration or a unified international shipping schedule.
