As on Twitter, voice actor Zach Pokres (known as🉐 Za🍒ccActs on social media) has sent the Kingdom Hearts fanbase into a frenzy after claiming that in the last year, he's been involved in Square Enix's upcoming RPG.

Pokres recently starred as the protagonist in horror-flavored adventure game MiSide, as well as Finley the sea serpent in Indigo Park – games which also featur🐈e in the actor's roundup of projects he's been part of "in the last YEAR," alongside Kingdom Hearts 4. He notes that "I'm in studio roste💦rs that most people would DREAM of being in, all without an agent and just always pushing."

Referring to Kingdom Hearts 4 specifically, Pokres says that he has "permission to disclose without showing anything else regarding it," so, needless to say, we've not goꦯt any more details a𒈔bout what role he could be playing. The actor doesn't appear to have starred in any previous games in the series, so that doesn't help narrow things down, either.

Although it's worth taking this with a pinch of salt when it comes to what it could mean for Kingdom Hearts 4's current state or how close it is to completion, it does feel rather promising that this has happened closely on the back of Square Enix finally giving us a new look at the game. After literal years of nothingness, the company dropped some fresh screenshots of the RPG earlier this month, noting that it "can't wait to share more about King𝐆dom Hearts 4 when the time is🦄 right."

Again, when that time will be is another matter. We're fast approaching this year's Summer Game Fest, so there's no doubt fans will be hoping that the RPG could make an aꦜppearance. Hang in there, folks.

In the meantime, be sure to check out our roundup of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best RPGs you can play today.

"I was a bit surprised🍰 when they explained to me what songs they wanted me to write – there was quite a gap there," Shimomura says in an . "I thought: 'wait, it's a Disney game, but you want that kind of song there? That kind of track there?' So, I was quite surprised at the difference."

🍌Kingdom Hearts does feature plenty of music that fits the vibes of the various Disney worlds the game takes place in, and Shimomura says these tracks offered a particular kind of difficulty, since she wanted to create something true to the spirit of the source material without simply rehashing the source material.

"I didn't focus on expressing my identity with the tracks," she explains. "I was only thinking to myself: 'What will be accepted by fans as new tracks that represenඣt the specific Disney world?' So, I explored ways to▨ create such tracks. Of course, I had already watched a number of Disney films at that point. So, I tried to look at it from the fan perspective. I always thought, 'Ok, as a fan of this Disney work, is what I’m making right or does it feel out of place?'"

For the game's original worlds, Shimomura took inspiration from the visual design the rest of the team was building. "For Hollow Bastion, for example, I actually got the game, played it and walked around insid🐠e the world to get a feel for the place. I really tried to create some🎐thing based on the visual impressions it gave me."

Shimomura is set to return for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4, and🃏 she says she hopes to "keep making game music for as long as I can and try not to fall short of the eꦰxpectations of all the fans who are looking for more tracks from me." Given her track record, I doubt Kingdom Hearts fans are going to be disappointed.

The Kingdom Hearts 4 drought is over after 1,131 days as new screenshots of the RPG reveal another Keyblade, playable Mickey Mouse, and more.

The Disneyverse-spanning RPG was announced a whopping 1,131 days ago (I've been keeping count) and aside from vague 澳洲幸🧸运5开奖号码历史查询:lore drops from director Tetsuya Nomura, publisher Square Enix has been relatively♓ mute about the ෴upcoming game.

That is, until now. Squeenix just dropped a collage of screenshots from the game, showing Sora duking it out with some Heartless in Tokyo while don💫ning a new Keyblade, fresh renders of a brand new character called Strelitzia, a weirdly close shot of a random telephone that, knowing the series, is probably crucial to the plot, and confirmation that we'll once again be able to play as King Mickey Mouse in at least one section.

"We're curr𓂃ently working hard on Kingdom Hearts 4 and will continue pouring ourselves into the game's development," Square Enix writes via a new . "We're dedicated to making this an experienꦜce that lives up to your expectations!⁣"

"We've seen how excite♉d you are, and we are truly grateful from the bottom of our hearts," it continues. "We are equally excited and can't wait to share more about Kingdom Hearꦓts 4 when the time is right. Until then, we appreciate your patience.⁣ ⁣ Thank you for your continued support."

The update comes hot off 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the cancellation of Kingdom Hearts 🌠Missing-Link, the mobile spin-off that promised to tie in to the next full-fat mainline game, so perhaps the publisher was trying to alleviate fans' con⛦cerns about the state of the series.

And it worked! Kingdom Hearts sickos immediately mobilized to dissect every l🔴ast detail in all of the screenshots. Seriously, some people have already in Tokyo, meaning the map m🍎ight be closer to its real-world counterpart than anyone was expecting. Now, can someone actually try to explain what the heck is up with that telephone?

To get through the Kingdom Hearts 4 news drought, Square Enix is re-releasing a 10-game collection full of other already re-released collections

Revealing the cancellation of the GPS-based mobile game, the developers begin by apologizing to excited fans: "We wish to convey our heartfelt apologie♛s to everyone who has been looking forward to the start of service."

According to the studio, as work o🅷ꦬn Missing-Link unfolded, the devs realized that the final product would potentially be unable to last in popularity over time, prompting them to rethink its future release entirely.

"Although we worked hard on developing and adjusting the game in the hope that it would be enjoyed by lots of players, we determined that it would be difficult for us to offer a service that players would find satisfactory over a long period of time, leading us to the decision to cancel development," explain the devs, going on to𝔍 reference the now-canceled game's past beta tests – the last of which took place in 2024.

"We would like to take this opportunity to express our thanks to everyone who gave us their support and assistance with the multiple closed beta tests," states the studio. "We are truly sorry to hav💖e to make this announcement."

While it's certainly not great news for fans of the Kingdom Hearts series, the cancellation of Missing-Link doe🍎sn't spell the demise of any other future games – including the long-awaited Kingdom Hear♛ts 4.

"The Kingdom Hearts series will continue," conclude the devs. "We are har🅺d at work on Kingdom Hearts 4, and hope you'll continue to support the series as you keep an eye out for further updates."

To get through the Kingdom Hearts 4 news drought, Square Enix is re-releasing a 10-game collection full of other already re-released collections

Kingdom Hearts All-In-One package previously got a physical PS4 release back in 2020 in North 🎀America, though the publisher is now sending the collection to EU retailers in June. (Thanks, .)

But the collection of collections is almost as lovably convoluteℱd as the series lor🌞e.

For those♏ not deep into the winding KH rabbit hole, the All-In-One package includes Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix (which itself bundles together two different collections of games that were once sold separately), Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue (which has three chapters of the KH saga), and Kingdom Hearts 3 (tꦫhat one's simple enough – it's just one game, minus the DLC.)

Here's the fඣಞull rundown of what you get with too many brackets because this is a series that requires some extra explaining:

• Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 Remix
• Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix (the first game)
• Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories (a remaster of a remake of a card-based GBA game)
• Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (the DS game now as a non-interactive, movie-length cutscene)
• Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix (the second-ish mainline game)
• Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix (the PSP prequel)
• Kingdom Hearts Re:coded (also a remastered, movie-length cutscene)
• Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue
• Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD (the excellent 3DS game)
• Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep - A fragmentary passage - (a lead up to KH 3 and a pseudo-epilogue to Birth by Sleep... beating it is quicker than trying to say its name out loud)
• Kingdom Hearts X Back Cover (another movie-length cutscene that ties into the third game)
• Kingdom Hearts 3 (the third game)

Phew!

Having the whole saga so far on one disc is handy, but the lack of a bespoke PS5/Xbox Series X/ Switch 2 edition makes me think the collection still has at least one more re-re-release left in its bones, which would be hilarious for people like me who have b♉een dealing with Kingdom Hearts 4's relative silence for the 1,103 days since💛 its announcement.

To make matter worse (or slightly funnier depending on your perspective), Kingdom Hearts maestro Tetsuya Nomura recently revealed some potent🍎ially crucial fruit-based lore that even༒ left Square Enix baffled. He also implied he 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:has the whole story planned out already, in case you're worried about things flying even furt🥃her off the rails.

After voicing Sora in 12 RPGs, Kingdom Hearts actor says maybe "the best thing to do" is let the long-running series end: "Even if you have something that you love"

To celebrate the first Kingdom Hearts game's 23rd anniversary, publisher Square Enix decided to try and wrangle some new info out of Nomura's head, specifically in regards to the star-shaped paopu fr🐭uit that appears in protagonist Sora's home island. "In the game, it's said if two people share a paopu fruit, their destinies become intertwined," a new social media explains. "We asked director Tetsuya Nomura to tell us more."

His response may or may n♍ot surprise you depending on how numb you are to Kingdom Hearts bulls*** - which I love,﷽ by the way.

Square Enix asked the famed director if there are any "untold stories❀" behind the fruit, to which Nomura simply says "You mean the Paradise of Promise?" Square Enix's social media team seemingly has no idea what he's talking about, and asks if the word paopu came from "combining the words Paradi👍se of Promise."

In keeping with the series' tradition of confusing retcons, Nomura then asks "or was it Paradise of Pure?... I guess there💝 are no particular untold stories." The Square Enix team, echoing what everyone else is thi🦂nking, just responds with "Hmm?!"

I've been playing Kingdom Hearts for most of my lifetime, and I couldn't even begin to speculate about what Paradise of Promise/Pure even means. We might find out in Kingdom Hearts 4. We might find out in a social media post years from now. Or maybe the information will stay locked in Nomura's noggin for the rest of time. Regardless, it's at least slightly hilarious that the biggest news drop we have about one of Square Enix's biggest 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:upcoming games is a piece of lore about fruit that even has the publisher lost for words𒁃.

After voicing Sora in 12 RPGs, Kingdom Hearts actor says maybe "the best thing to do" is let the long-running series end: "Even if you have something that you love"

That's because Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep released on PSP 15 years ago today in Japan, January 9, and to celebrate the milestone, series director and infamous zip-lover Tetsuya Nomura wrote a commemorative message breaking down the spin-off's first teaser, ori𒈔ginally included as a secret ending to Kingdom Hearts 2. The cutscene has the game's three heroes, clad in spiked armor, meeting in a dusty wasteland we now know as the Keyblade Graveyard, but Nomura explains that it actually ties into a larger series motif. 

"Meeting someone at a crossroads is actually a recurring motif in Kingdom Hearts," he wrote, referring to the endings of al🧸l three numbered games, plus multiple scenes from the series' many, many spin-offs. "Whenever there's something important going on, crossroads act as an important point of divergence."

It's not just a random setting, though. Nomura wဣas "inspired by the well-known crossroad myth from American folklore" where "a young man makes a deal with the devil at a crossroads, trading his soul for the ability to play the guitar." The director then points out that a similar trade - "losing something to gain something" - happens every single time a crossroads pops up in the series.

"But wait... when the Lost Masters gather at the crossroads in KH3, what is gained ꦑand what is lost? That's a story for another time," he finally hints, referring to the threequel's epilogue.

It's a very vague description of the themes Kingdom Hearts 4 might play around with, but it does at least reveal Nomura had planned out where the series would be heading next years in advance. Interestingly, Sora wakes up in an alt universe version of Shibuya Crossing - yes, I'm not joking - in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3's ending as well. Maybe he'll make a trade with Nomura himself🧸 while he's out there.

Read our list of all the new 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:video game release dates heading our way this year.

In a 2003 interview featured in Hyper PlayStation 2 magazine, now available on , Tetsuya Nomura discusses the development of the first Kingdom Hearts title, which was at the time a few months away from release, alongside Metal Gear Solid developer 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Yoji Shinkawa.🧜 At one point, Nomura notes that, despite being a Disney game, it's quite "hardcore", and had previously been even more so.

"My concept for Kingdom Hearts was that it would be a game with a lot of depth, something you could play for a long time," he explains. "I wanted to tr💞y making a game where the player could do anything. Even though Kingdom Hearts is a Disney game, there are quite a few "hardcore" elements that remain."

He gives an example of navigation, with Kingdom Hearts featuring a 3D map but no 2D minimap, forcing playe♛rs to explore and use their heads - something Nomura believes to be part of the fun. At this point, Shinkawa chimes in, saying that "Kingdom Hearts sounds like an easy game to get lost♏ in," before Nomura explains that the game had previously been even harder. 

"It was actually MORE hardcore in the beginning. We had some puzzles in there that would make you go, 'what is this, Takeshi's Challenge?' We lowered the difficulty a bit, but it still has more bite to it than most mainstream releases today," expl🐬ains Nomura, referencing Takeshi Kitano's infamously confusing 1986 NES title.

Thankfully, the game didn't turn out to be as difficult to understand as Takeshi's Challenge, thou🎀gh Nomura concedes that it probably wasn't as simple as many players thought it would be. "[It's] the Disney factor, it's a bit of a wolf in sheep's clothing, isn't it? I think the gameplay is going to defy p༺layer expectations in that regard." At this point, I think it's safe to say that's exactly what it did.

If you're excited for the next game in the series, check out everything we know about Kingdom Hearts 4.

When first drawing up character designs and initial✃ treatments for the very first Kingdom Hearts game, Nomura knew he wanted to create an original star, which eventually led to him sketching Sora for the first time, a cheery protagonist that mixes classic Disney colours with a little JRPG edge.

"We talked about us🎃ing an existing Disney character as the protagonist, but from the beginning I knew I wanted the main character to be non-Disney, with an all-star cast of supporting Disney characters," ♔Nomura said in a recently resurfaced interview with Metal Gear Solid artist Yoji Shinkawa, first published in a Hyper PlayStation 2 Magazine, now available on . "That was one thing I wasn't willing to budge on."

"For Sora's coloring, I was very conscious of Mickey Mouse," he continued. "Since all the oth🃏er characters are not Square characters but Disney, I wanted Sora's design to be a kind of 'grand compilation' of all the characters I'd drawn up till then. So I think he resembles a lot of characters: there's a bit of Cloud, a bit of Tidus, some Sion too. I was very intent on that."

Part of the reason for a more mature, zip-ridden protagonist was because Kingdom Hearts wasn't exac﷽tly what you'd expect from a 2002 licensed Disney. It was an RPG that carried Final Fantasy's traditions in many ways - with summons and similarly named spells - but with an action slant, anime melodrama, and a weirder, slightly ominous undertone.

"My concept for Kingdom Hearts was that it would be a game with a lot of depth, something you could play for a long t🎃ime," Nomura explained. "I wanted to try making a game where the player could do anything. Even though Kingdom Hearts is a Disney game, there are quite a few "hardcore" elements that remain. Things where you'd think, we probably have to make this more friendly―we dared to buck that expectation in a number of places. For example, the map is 3D, but we deliberately did not include an easy-to-understand 2D-overhead minimap display... Originally, getting lost and having to use your head was part of the fun, I think. I do wonder if all the recent hand-holding and over-explanation from developers is really a good thing…" A vision of the future perhaps.

Before 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 gets going, Sora&apo꧑s;s main actor said maybe "the best thing to do" is to let the series end: "Even if you have something you love."

The minigame in question is Grandstander, an early side activity in Kingdom Hearts 2 that challenges you to juggle a ball. It bounces into the air when you hit it, and you've got to 🐷keep it from hitting the ground as long as possible. The minigame grades you based on how many juggles you perform, with a reward of 10 munny - the game's 🌼currency - for four juggles, up to a reward of 50 munny if you surpass 20 juggles.

The maximum high score any reasonable person would attempt in this challenge is 100 juggles - the number it takes to grab the achievement required for 100% completion in Kingdom Hearts 2. But the onscreen combo meter tracks your juggles much, much higher than that. You could, in theory,📖 reach a 9999-hit ♕combo for a perfect score in Grandstander.

There are to rack up a massive combo as Sora, but how long would the 9999 hits take using Roxas's basic three-hit combo? About two hours and 19 minutes, as NobodyDaxian ably demonstrated during a recent (via ). You can watch the full thing for yourself at that link if you've the 𝔉patience to endure it, but the basic gist is that NobodyDaxian sends the ball over to a narrow alley and keeps bouncing it back and forth between two opposing walls. For two hours straight. Always knowing that any momentary lapse in concentration will break the combo and force a total restart.

"This is possibly the most stressful thing I've ever done and I took a public speaking class," NobodyDaxian said at one point during the attempt. The in-game reward for all this effort? Well, agaiꦫn, the game stops giving rewards past the 20-hit combo, so NobodyDaxian just got the sta💖ndard reward of 50 munny. By my count, that's enough to buy exactly 1.2 basic healing potions.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 is coming… someday, and here's hoping it can stand with its predecessors among the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best RPGs out there.

Josh Scherr worked for over 21 years at Naughty Dog, with the first 13 spent as the cinematic animation lead on gems like Jak and Daxter, Jak 2, and Jak 3. Jak 2 shipped in 2003, and it featured many firsts for the iconic series - Dark Jak, Haven City, and cutscenes with unique character models. According to Scherr, though, it's actually another smash-hit title from many gamers' childhoods that inspired this shift to more high-reso♈lution models in Jak 2.

Sp♈eaking in a recent on the matter, Scherr reveals how Kingdom Hearts prompted Jak 2 devs to stop using the same character models seen during gameplay in cutscenes. In the first Jak and Daxter, he says Naughty Dog "used the same character models for both gameplay & cutscenes (Daxter didn’t have fully articulated fingers)." While making Jak 2, the studio "saw early screenshots of Kingdom Hearts" and "went 'oh shit.'"

That's when they opted to create "high-res models for cutscenes" - and "still did it without visible loading!" Scherr then shows an eye-opening before and after comparison of Jak 2's cutscene models, along with a screenshot of how Tarzan appeared in Kingdom Hearts' own. "Graphic fidelity was a big selling point in the PS2 era," he explains," much more so than now, so making thജe pivot to more deta🏅iled models made sense."

The changes are undeniably apparent - just look at how smooth everything appears to be in the screenshot featuring the reworked cutscene models. The new ones certainly give off a far less "low-poly" vibe than the original models did, althoughꦬ I'd be lying if I said I don't find them all charming. I'm just excitꩵed to learn that two of my favorite throwback games have some sort of connection - an arguably wholesome one, at that.

Love a good throwback? Here are some of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best retro games of all time.

Speaking to , Osment wasn't actually aware that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 had been officially unveiled. "I hope that we hear something about it sometime soon," he said, "I guess it's rumor🐼ed that there's going to be another one. I'm always the last to know, because I'm the last step in the process. So hopefully, sometime soon, I'll be back in the studio finding out what happened to everybody."

IGN then informed him that Square Enix announced the fourquel some time ago, and also asked him about series creator Tetsuya Nomura's recent about moving 💞the story towards its final conclusion. The Sora steward said he's sure Nomura "has great plans to wrap it up in a satisfying way" - and, perhaps, "that's the best thing to do, even if you have something that you love and you feel like you want to play it forever."

Osment reckons it's better to say goodbye to a beloved series rather than let it drag "beyond where the creator wants it to go. I think that's the best way to go." And, hey, if you find yourself missing a version of Donald Duck that is canonically stronger than any other single black mage in Final Fantasy✃ history, then there's still "many, many hours of gameplay for people to go back and revisit."

Tetsuya Nomura acknowledges that Kingdom Hearts 4 is more like Kingdom Hearts 13, but the story’s gotten a “reset” for newcomers. 

"As everyone has said, 'Kingdom Hearts 4 was just announced, but it's really just like 'Kingdom Hearts 13,'" Nomura says in an interview with Japanese magazine (Google translated). Nomura adds that, while players int✃imately familiar with Kingdom Hearts lore will have a deeper 📖appreciation for both Kingdom Hearts 4 and the upcoming mobile game Missing Link, they're both "being made with a stronger focus on being new titles rather than sequels."

To that end, Nomura has tried things like bringing in devs who've never worked on Kingdom Hearts before to participate in writing the story. "I do think of Missing Link and 4 as a reset," Nomura says. "I wanted to end it with 3 or rather reset it, so I appointed new writers and even ma🐻de a new logo to make it easier for new people to get into it."

This notion of a "reset" isn't entirely surprising - after all, the devs have been calling 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hear💦ts 4 the start of a new st💖ory arc since it was first announced. But it's not as if the new game will completely ignore everything that came before. For example, Nomura teases that the famous line - "I’ve been having these weird thoughts lately like, is any of this for real, or not?" - has come to fruition in the new game's concept 𒅌of Quadratum.

"For those who know how KH3 ends," Nomura says (this time translated by on Twitter), "the reason why Sora ends up like that in the ending is because we wanted to reset the story in a way. This should make it even easier for newcomers to join the story starting from KH4. Fans of the Kingdom Hearts series will also be able to feel like 'oh so it's THIS,' but we're making this game with the hopes that new player🤪s can enjoy it as well."

Nomura says he started making hot characters after a friend said he didn't want to be "ugly" in games, and then never stopped.

Anyone who has ever tried to 1ꦑ00% Kingdom H🌳earts knows about the vein-popping Sephiroth secret boss fight. You step into Hercules' Colosseum, a horror-tinged version of One Winged Angel begins to play, and there he is, all Kingdom Heartsified with belts on his legs and an actual wing creeping through his leather coat, ready to deliver non-stop stabs while he's protected by about ten health bars, give or take a few.

It's gruelling, but don't be disheartened if you struggled with the boss fight. Lance Bass, Sephiroth's voice actor and former NSYNC band member - a sentence that'll never stop astounding me♒ - has also never beaten himself.

In a about his upcoming TV special, one commenter asked about hi🦩s surprising guest appearance in one of gaming's infamously hard fights. "Yeah, I'm kinda badass as Sephiroth," Bass wrote. 

"No, I've never been able to kill my own character," he continued. "He is so hard! But definitely one of the biggest surprises, when I tell people I voiced Sephiroth. In fact, I think a lot of people get upset, they get taken aback that I ಞvoiced Sephiroth. But God gives you a booming bass voice, and you 🔥gotta use it!"

Final Fantasy 7's big baddie showed up again as an optional boss fight in Kingdom Hearts 2 with a different voice actor attached, and was completely omitted in the threequel. Other renditions of the iconic villain in Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Advent Children are also handled by different actors, b𒊎ut Bass can be satisfied knowing he was the first person to ever lend his "booming bass voice" to Sephiroth.  

Another fun fact: Kingdom Hea💦rts' Sora is voiced by the Oscar-nominated "I see dead people" actor Haley Joel Osment.

Behold the power of PC gamers: The complete $100 Kingdom Hearts collection jumps 396 ranks in monthly sales chart immediately after Steam release.

That's according to reliable leaker Midori, who claims in a new post on Twitter that Kingdom Hearts 4 is currently planned to be released in 2026. Yup, if you thought that the wait for GTA 6 w✨as taking too long, then this apparent release window really takes things to the next level. In addition, Midori claims "this title looks different now than it did when it was revealed. But it is not bad."

Midori doesn't elaborate on what "different" means for the RPG, so that's a bit of a mystery. When it was first shown in April 2022, we saw an🐷 older-looking Sora, as well as Strelitzia (a character from the spin-off game Unchained X) in some kind of apartment, as well as some gameplay footage of our spiky-haired protagonist fighting an enormous foe in the middle of the city. The story will kick off 'The Lost Master Arc,' succeeding the previous games' 'Dark Seeker Saga.' What that actually means for the plot is another matter, as that's still very much unknown at this point. 

It goes without saying that Kingdom Hearts fans have been desperate for more news ever since its reveal, and no one can blame them. Yesterday's Summer Game Fest stream came and went without a trace of the RPG, although that wasn't exactly a shock since host Geoff Keighley warned fans ahead of time that they were "setting themselves up for failure" by hyping theღmselves up for a new trailer at the showcase. Maybe next time, right?

For more games like Kingdom Hearts, be sure to check out our picks for the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:25 best RPGs you can play right now.  

Speaking during a recent Q&A live , SGF presenter Geoff Keighley seemingly reveals news that no Kingdom Hearts stan wants to hear - we probably won't see the upcoming RPG at this w𒆙eekend's show. Following a slew of questions regarding Kingdom Hearts 4 and its possible presence during the event, Keighly notes that "people keep asking about Kingdom Hearts" but says that he doesn't "know why." He goes𝓰 on to speculate that players may have expectations due to last year's announcement from Square Enix at SGF.

"I think it's because we did Final Fantasy [7] Rebirth last year," Keighley explains. The host then laughs awkwardly, saying that "people are setting themselves up for failure" by expecting a new look at Kingdom Hearts 4 following its big reveal during 2022's 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:20th-anniversary event.

The announcement trailer showed a matured Sora and provided a glimpse of the Tokyo-inspired city Quadratum - a bustling hub area home to the protagonist and his 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:luxury apartment. Past that initial clip, Square Enix has yet to drop a🐻nother trailer.

If Keighley's sentiment rings true, it seems excited fans shouldn't expect to see one during SGF, either - "but you guys can keep hoping." While the showrunner's Q&A reveal was undoubtedly disappointing for us longtime Kingdom Hearts players, the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest schedule this weekend offers plenty of other possible announcements and trailers to look forward to with the GTA 6 publisher, Xbox, and PlayStation all in attendance.

As revealed by Twitter user @ (and translated by @), Nomura made an appearance during the Kingdom Hearts Second Breath concert in Tokyo over the weekend, and revealed that something happened shortly after 𝐆澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4's announcement which "determined the direction" of the series.

Joining series composer Yoko Shimomura on stage, Nomura 💦said: "Last year after the Kingdom Hearts event, there was something that happened that determined the direction of the Kingdom Hearts series." This was apparently news to Shimomura who responded with: "Huh, what? What happened?" to which Nomura replied: "Oh you didn’t know? I’ll tell you backstage."

Understandably, this has sent fans into a frenzy and has left us all now questioning what happened after the 20t𒁏h-anniversary event and what it means for the future of the series.

One of the most popular theories floating around online is that Disney's ꦬinvolvement with the Square Enix series could have changed - this seems extremely unlikely though as if ♏you remove Disney from Kingdom Hearts, you'll be missing a lot of key characters, storylines, and themes from the series so far. 

It's even less plausible when you remember that we saw Donald and Goofy (and maybe even Hades) in the Kingdom Hearts 4 announcement trailer last year. Not only this, but shortly after Square Enix debuted Kingdom Hearts 4's new, and much more realistic, art style, Nomura reassured future players by saying that Disney fans shouldn't worry about Kingdom Hearts 4 feeling "slightly different."

It's possible that Nomura could have been making reference to the role Final Fantasy plays in the upcoming game. As we already know, Nomura isn't sure if we&apo🐟s;ll be getting ♌more Final Fantasy characters in Kingdom Hearts 4, especially since there was a distinct lack of them in Kingཧdom Hearts 3.

Right no✱w, we'll all just have to 𝄹stay on the edge of our seats until we get another update on Kingdom Hearts 4.

In the meantime, find out the 10 Disney worlds we want to see in Kingdom Hearts 4.

Thanks to several Twitter users, we can get a good idea of what kind of game Kingdom Hearts Missing Link is shaping up to be. The rules of the beta test say that participants can't share screꦐenshots or footage of the game but that they are allowed to share their thoughts online, and so several people have done exactly that. 

One of the first bits of information we got actually came from an official Kingdom Hearts Twitter account, and it details the mobile game's controls. According to the tweet below, Missing Link will be playable in both 'GPS Mode' and 'Pad Mode'. The former allows players to move around the map by physically walking outside (similar to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Pokemon Go). The other mode works just like a standard mobile game and sees players touching an onscreen pad꧑ to get around. For 'GPS Mode&ap🙈os; there's also a 'Hands-Free Mode' which will do all the battling for you. 

As for what testers have been saying, several people have commented on the game's visuals, sharing that it looks impressive for a mobile game 🎶and that it could be on par with the Nintendo Switch's graphics. Participants have also shared that the game has a CGI intro, similar to all the mainline games, and even its own version of the Kingdom Heꦬarts opening song 'Dearly Beloved'. The character customization is also very varied, allowing players to choose their own hair style and color, eye colour, outfit, accessories, and more. 

Missing Link's gameplay also sounds fairly intuitive and makes reference to previous Kingdom Hearts titles. A🦩ccording to players, Missing Link will have story quests but they're not available in this beta version. There's also been reports that the jewels and gacha from fellow Kingdom Hearts mobile game Unchained X are back, as well as other materials from previous games, and completely new items too.

A few other details have also been revealed including that cha༺nging between keyblades will switch up the game's battle styles, weather conditions can affect which Heartless appear on the map, and (as of right now) there's no controller support for the game.

A lot of exciting thing☂s have already come out about this game, with more expected as the Kingdom Hearts Missing Link beta continues over the weekend. It's important to remember though that this is a beta test and that some of these features could change by the time Missing Link actu🐬ally launches.

If you're wondering if it's worth playing this one when it eventually releases, well, according to series director Tetsuya Nomura, Missing Link will ha💞ve connecꦦtions to Kingdom Hearts 4. So if you don't want to miss out on any of the sequel's story, we suggest getting up to date with everything before 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 releases.

Over the weekend, it was revealed that beta testing for Kingdom Hearts Missing Link is due to begin on January 13, 2023 - January 18, 2023, with sign-ups now available via the new until December 26, 2023. The only cat💞ch is that this beta test is only available in J💙apan and on iOS devices right now. 

As revealed in from the Kingdom Hearts Dark Road account, this "prototype test" isn't your normal closed beta tes❀t, as it'll only feature some of the full game's functions on a small scale. According to the same tweet, an official closed beta test will apparently be announced later. So we may get a chance to take part worldwide soon after. 

Along with this news, Square Enix has also released some new Kingdom Hearts Missing Link artwork. It's a 🅷very different look from what we're used to seeing from Sora, Donald, and Goofy's previous adventures and the comparisons to Bloodborne have already begun. It's not hard to see why several fans have been reminded of the FromSoftware game as the art features a dreary colour scheme, intimidating architecture, and what looks like a lot of mist.

If Kingdom Hearts Missing Link is news to you, let us catch you up. Originally revealed during the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary event in Tokyo last April - the very same event where 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 was first revealed - Kingdom Hearts Missing Link has been a bit of a mystery up until now 🌱since all we've had to go off of is a short teaser trailer. In the trailer, we are introduced to a host of new characters in a version of the Kingdom Hearts🔜 3 world Scala ad Caelum. 

It's probably worth keeping an eye on this mobile game, especially considering the role Kingdom Hearts X (aka 'Unchained X' or 'Dark Road') played in the overall story of Kingdom Hearts 3. Series director Tetsuya Nomura has already said that Missing Link will have connections to Kingdom Hearts 4, so you better be rea✤dy to play this one when 𓂃it does eventually release.

If you've played Kingdom Hearts 1 and Kingdom Hearts 2, you'll already be familiar with the concept of command shortcuts. ꦺTo save Sora from flicking through the magic and item menus in the heatﷺ of a battle, players can instead assign things like magic and potions to a button on the controller. For argument's sake, we're talking about when Kingdom Hearts released the first time around on PS2, so your options are X, Circle, Square, or Triangle. 

For many, including myself, X was always the go-to for the magic ability Cure; which would give Sora back some of his HP if he was on his last legs. It turns out, however,
that there are some people out 𒅌the🤡re that actually prefer to use other buttons. This has actually come as quite a shock and caused a divide within the Kingdom Hearts community. It seems that most fans go for X, some go to Triangle, and some unhinged individuals go for Square or Circle. 

The majority of this debate has taken place on Twitter. As one reads: "If cure isn't X you are one of the following: Od𒈔d, strange, weird." chim🐎ed in the discussion with: "The only time Triangle is acceptable for cure in Kingdom Hearts is when you are playing Birth by Sleep or Dream Drop Distance" - two of the spin-off games in the series. 

The tweets have since got a little bit more personal though. As by Team Triangle, it makes sense to apply Cure to the green PlayStation button as the color of the item matches. Although this makes sense in theory, has responded to this by bringing the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:PS5 into the discussion, which doesn't have any colꩲored but⛄tons on it at all. 

Another just went straight for the jugular by making a chart that gives each of the shortcut buttons their own personality types and frankly calling ea🔜ch of them out in their own way. 

For the record, the best shortcu🍰t setup is X for Cure, Square🐲 for Thunder, Triangle for Fire, and Circle for Blizzard. I will not be taking any questions at this time. 

We'll probably be waiting to find out the result of this discussion long after has released.  

Following Frost's victory during the 2022 elections, one of the member of Congress' old tweets has resurfaced on Twitter. This isn't a bad thing though, as reads: "Haven't played video games in years but I'll always remember how awesome Kingdom Hearts is," with a link to the Kingdom Hearts 2 menu song 'Dearly Beloved II&♌apos;. 

This has, of cou𝓰rse, got Kingdom Hearts fans across the US celebrating Frost's win, and fans all over the world making lighthearted jokes about the whole thing. "Kingdom Hearts fans are infiltrating Congress," one said. Another praised Frost by : "Confident @MaxwellFrostFL will do well in congress because he understands complex topics like the Kingdom Hearts storyline." 

Another Twitter user had a more proactive response when they : "Okay, I demand that Congress now pass a measure to make Kingdom Hearℱts make sense." Kingdom Hearts aside, Frost's win is admirable all on its own as he is just 25 years old. He's also now being referred to by several media outlets (including the ) as the first Gen Z member of Congress.

Now I've never won an election so I can't relate to that, but I have beaten Kingdom Hearts 1, 2, and 3 on Proud Mode - which I imagine is just as exhilarating as winning an election. I wonder if Frost is just as excited for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 as tꩲhe ཧrest of us? Either way, congrats on your win, Maxwell Frost!

First revealed during the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 20th Anniversary ꦛevent back in 2022, we've only really been getting small breadcrumbs of news ever since, so it's great to see more of the RPG, which promisesꦇ to be something of a soft reset that builds on the Sora's last outing in Kingdom Hearts 3.

With the screenshots showing off Sora's updated look and some other features - including the appearance of Mickey Mouse - they've certainly left us all the more eager to learn more. And as we approach the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Summer Game Fest schedule 2025 lineup of showcases set to come, we can only hope for another glimpse of what is one of the most anticipated 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games in the pipelin🅷e. While we𝓡 await more news, read on below for an overview of everything we know so far about Kingdom Hearts 4.

Kingdom Hearts 4 release date speculation

Square Enix is yet to confirm a Kingdom Hearts 4 release date. The game was 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:said to be in early development back in 2022, and it had been quite quiet on the update front following the announcement - even Goofy's English ♓voice actor didn't re🅠alize it had even been announced that same year.

But the publisher recently confirmed work is still underway on Kingdom Hearts 4 in 2025 in a statement that accompanied the news t♌hat mob൩ile game Missing Link has been cancelled. Even so, we've yet to get an indication of when KH4 will arrive, and it looks like we'll still be in for a wait for the next entry to arrive - especially if the unverified rumors ꦆcoming in 2024 suggesting that Kingdom Hearts 4 could release in 2026 are to be believed.

Kingdom Hearts 4 platforms

Square Enix is yet to confirm the Kingdom Hearts 4 platforms. Square Enix is currently working closely with Sony, having launched 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Forspoken, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 16, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Final Fantasy 7: Rebirth as PS5 platform exclusives.

However, given that Kingdom Hearts has traditionally launched across a wider array of systems, we're hopeful that it'll also land on PC, Xbox Series X, and potentially even the Switch 2.

Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer

We got our first look at the Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer in April 2022, as Square Enix celebrated the series' 20th anniversary. It came as a shock to fans of the series, not only because of the unexpected nature of the reveal but also b💎ecause it features an art style that is completely different to 🦩anything Kingdom Hearts has had before.

The photo-realistic trailer features appearances from Sora, Strelitzia, a Darkside heartless, a brief appearance from Donald and Goofy, and a little gameplay in the world of Quadratum. It's all very exciting, and honestly, the short teaser reminds us why Kingdom Hearts is one of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best anime games still to this day!

Kingdom Hearts 4 story

Back in 2022, it was said that Kingdom Hearts 4 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:would see an "epic new storyline". But trying to predict exactlꦫy what direction the Kingdom Hearts 4 story will go in isn't easy by any means - nobody knows what director Tetsuya Nomura has planned next. What we do know is that this will be the first chapter of 'The Lost Master Arc', which succ❀eeds 'The Dark Seeker Saga' – that's the saga we played through in the previous games.

We also know that some of Kingdom Hearts 4's story takes place in Quadratum, a world made up of neither light or dark that might tak🦹e place outside of the realm of reality and resembles Shibuya in the real 💦life Tokyo. What this means for Donald and Goofy is yet to be revealed.

As fans of the series will no doubt know, droplets of canon lore can also come from the most unexpected of places when it comes to Kingdom Hearts 4, and Tetsuya Nomura 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:shared some curious fruit lore on the first game's anniv🌠ersary that's pretty baffling - whether it'll be connected to the next entry's story is a big question mark, but it certainly gave fans some food for thought.

Thankfully, Nomura acknowledged that Kingdom Hearts 4 will be something of a "reset" to keꦏep new players from getting confused,🀅🍎 so it'll be interesting to see how approachable the upcoming installment is.

Or if you need a quick recap ahead of the new game, you can check out our article explaining the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3 ending.

Kingdom Hearts 4 gameplay

It's difficult to tell exactly what the Kingdom Hearts 4 gameplay will be like, but we did get a very brief look during that first reveal🍒 trailer. From this footage, we can see that a variation of the Flowmotion mechanic will be returning, as well as the usual abilities such as magic and just whacking darkness with the keyblade.

It also looks like Sora will also use the keyblade's keychain as a grappling hook to get him closer to enemies and,𝕴 like in Kingdom❀ Hearts 3, traverse up the side of buildings.

We got another look at the grappling🐻-hook like movement in a screenshot Square Enix dropped on (as seen above), which shows Sora balancing on chains to catapult through the air, with the signature command inputs in the bottom left corner of the screen, which show we can attack, use magic, and access items. Curiously, there's also a "build" option, which may link to how we can use the grappling-hook-like feature, or point towards something else we'll be able to do. We've yet to see this in action to know for sure, but it's certainly exciting.

Elsewhere, we can also see Mickey Mouse atop a chandelier, which could hint at some platforming-style sections, and p🌜ossibly t🌠ease that we may be able to control the famous mouse at certain points.

All siౠgns point to more of♛ the Kingdom Hearts gameplay we know and love but with a few upgrades.

For a refresher on how the previous entry plays, check out our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3 review.

Kingdom Hearts 4 worlds

In terms of Kingdom Hearts 4 worlds, all we know for sure so far is that Quadratum is one of them. , Tetsuya Nomura has confirꦏmed t❀hat Quadratum is the "initial base within the game" and that we will "spend time there and then go to different worlds and then go back there." He also confirmed that "there will be Disney worlds in Kingdom Hearts 4", but is yet to share any details.

All we can do is speculate at this point, but there are some theories about what Disney-themed worlds might be making an appearance – a few eagle-eyed fans have spotted potential references to a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:ꦇStar Wars-t🦋hemed world in Kingdom Hearts 4.

Using geo-location, some folks have even worked out that the latest screenshot of Sora in combat appears to be set on a street in Toky🍨o - which may indicate the game will take place in real-world locations.

Kingdom Hearts 4 Sora

Although he may look s🌳lightly different from his previous appearances, there will be a Kingdom Hearts 4 Sora. The spikey-haired guardian of light is a main staple of the Kingdom Hearts series and has aꦍppeared in almost all 13 of the games.

This time around, Sora will sport a much more realistic look. As we can see fr🅘om ꦦthe reveal trailer, his hair is a little less tall and his clown shoes have been swapped for a pair that actually fit him. Don't panic though, he's still going to wield the signature Kingdom Key keyblade.

Kingdom Hearts 4 Strelitzia 

Kingdom Hearts 4's Strelitzia appeared alongside Sora in the reveal trailer. This mysterious girl was thought to be a newcomer to the series, however, those who played Kingdom Hearts Union X know exactly who she is. So, 澳洲幸运ꦜ5开奖号码历史查询:who is Strelitzia in Kingdom Hearts 4?

We won't spoil anything in case you do go back and play the full series, but let's just say that Strelitzia is a keyblade wielder whose story takes place years before Sora, Donald, and Goofy get together. How she ended up with Sora will hopefully be♚ revealed in the upcoming game.

Kingdom Hearts 4 Final Fantasy 

A big question is will Kingdom Hearts 4 have Final Fantasy characters? If you've already played through Kingdom Hearts 3, you would have noticed the distinct lack of Final Fantasy characters. The first two games in the series feature cameos 🔥from Cloud Strife, Sephiroth, Squall 'Leon' Leonheart, Aerith Gainsborough, Yuffie Kisaragi, Cid Highwind, and more.

As for whether we'll see any of these characters again, Tetsuya Nomura has said that the future of Final Fantasy characters in Kingdom Hearts is currently uncertain.

Check out some of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best JRPGs to play while you wait for Kingdom Hearts 4

Seth Kearsley, who worked as executive producer on the project before it was scrappe🌸d, has been teasing on over the last few weeks that they were in possession of the original Kingdom Hearts pilot animatic on VHS. Now, they've uploaded the entire 11-minute pilot to YouTube. 

Talk of a Kingdom Hearts animated TV show has been floating around online for a long time now, but other than the odd or script, we've never seen anything really from it. That is of course, until now. According to Kearsley,💙 who on Twitter, the Kingdom Hearts TV series was commissioned by Disney but later scrapped due to Disney and Square Enix "doing more games." 

As you can imagine, what with this just being just the pilot of the proposed show, the animatic doesn't look exactly like how the final product would. Simply speaking, this is just a collection of storyboard animations pieced together to get an idea of what the actual show would look like. You can see 🍎what would have been for yourself below. 

So what happens in the pilot? Well, just like at the start of the first Kingdom Hearts game, Sora, Riku, and Kairi are hanging out on Destiny Islands when a bunch of Heartless show up and separate the trio, spreading them out across far-off worlds. Deviating slightly from the game's plot,▨ Sora is then traveling with Donald and Goofy and manages to find Riku in Agrabah. Think of it as a condensed - and sಌlightly altered for TV - version of the plot of the first game. As Kearsley themselves: "I had 11 minutes to set up the entire concept and tell a story."

If you recognize a few of the voices in the pilot, that's because a lot of the original cast apparently returned for the series. As revealed in by Kearsley, which featured a photo of the pilot's cast list, David Gallagher came back to voice Riku, as well as Hayden Panettiere as Kairi, Tony Anselmo as Donald, Bill Farmer as Goofy, and a few others. The only main difference was 🌟that Sora is not voiced by Haley Joel Osment this time around and instead is voiced by actor Bobby Edner.

It's so surreal seeing what could have been and has led to many fans for Disney+. Although not completely out of the realm of possibility, it might be a bit of a tall order now considering that the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts series as ♌grown exponentially in the last 20 years. Trying to fit all of that lore into a single animated series may be a bit of a challenge, even for the most dedicated Kingdom Hearts fan. 

But hey, at least we've definitely got 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 to look forward to! 

As of the time of writing this, has been nonstop streaming for over 185 hours (that's around 7 days) and documenting the entire thing on Twitch. If you're wondering how they𒆙've managed to do this for over a week, the answer is sleep breaks. That's right, Ninten plays a Kingdom Hearts game for the full day, sleeps (whilst still broadcasting), wakes up, and repeats the cycle. Which sounds like an ideal day if you ask me. 

Heading toward the end of the challenge now, Ninten has managed to earn the platinum trophy for Kingdom Hearts, Re: Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts 2, Birth By Sleep, Dream Drop Distance, and a gold trophy for Kingdom Hearts 0.2 - with just Kingdom Hearts 3 and Melody of Memory left to go. We previously reported on another Kingdom Hearts streamer who was attempting to get 7 platinum trophies in 7 days but that now looks easy compared to Ninten's hardcor𒁃e speedrun. 

If you're wondering why only eight out of 13 of the Kingdom Hearts games are counted in this run, it's simply because the likes of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Re:Coded, Dark Road, and more don't have a platinum trophy available to earn. Here's hoping Ninten attempts the same challenge again once 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 releases. 

If you've been out of the loop on all things Kingdom Hearts lately, let us get you up to speed. The series recently celebrated its 20th anniversary, which is where we got 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:our first glimpse of Kingdom Hearts 4. It's also where we found out that Kingdom Hearts 3 was the best-selling game in the series (so far) and all about the upcoming mobile game Kingdom Hearts Missing Link - which is said to have connections to Kingdom Hearts 4. 

Are you now inspired by Ninten to start your own series playthrough? Take a look at our how to play the Kingdom Hearts games in order guide to get started.

Following a Kingdom Hearts Dark Road Q&A session with series director Tetsuya Nomura, fans have begun speculating that we could be getting some news about theꦐ upcoming mobile game Kingdom Hearts Missing-Link during the Disney fan convention D23. Like most things to do 🌼with Kingdom Hearts, this theory has many layers, so buckle in. 

As shared by Twitter users and Kingdom Hearts fans and @, a Kingdom Hearts YouTuber in Japan - known as @ - has made a very interesting observation about Nomura’s recent Q&A session. As pointed out by the content creator, and tr🍷anslated by @xenosaga7, the Q&A has been by Square Enix however some of the questions are laid out differently from others. 

Eagle-eyed fans would have already spotte༺d that each of the questions starts with the usual "Q1, Q2, Q3", etc. however, question 4 is instead been labeled as "O4" and the same can be said for question 10. Although this could be considered a potential typo, Kingdom Hearts fans have𒀰 learned that nothing is accidental with the cryptic game designer and are now theorizing that the numbers four and ten are significant in some way. 

One theory is that the Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary event - where 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 was announced - took place on April 10, that's right 10/4. Many fans will also know the importance of the 104 building in Kingdom Hearts 3 and fellow Square Enix IP The World Ends With You, and, if we're being real conspiracy theorists here, the Q&A was held on August 26, 2022, meaning 14 (10 + 4) days before September 9 aka the very same date that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:D23 Expo's video game event 🔯is set to be held. It's also worth noting that technically Kingdom Hearts 4 will be the 14th game in the series if you don't include the final mix and re-released games.

Although this sounds coincidental and potentially far-fetched, fans are convinced it's not. It's not been confirmed whether we'll see Kingdom Hearts: Missing-Link - or any Kingdom Hearts content for that matter - at D23 Expo but the game is set to get a closed beta later this year, so the timin𓂃g does add up. 

Unfortunately, it's unlikely that we'll be getting any Kingdom Hearts 4 news during the event. Nomura has already said that fans shouldn't expect any more Kingdom Hearts 4 news until "way after E3 period." That isn't to say that we shouldn't be excited though as Nomura has also said that Missing-Link will have connections to Kingdom Hearts 4.

Streamer and speedrunner '' is the brave volunteer undertaking this challenge, which they began earlier this week. The idea of the challenge is to play all of the main series games that are available on PS4 - this means Kingdom Hearts 1, 2, Re: Chain of 🤡Memories, Birth By Sleep, Dream Drop Distance, 0.2, and 3 - and obtain the platinum trophy for each of these games as quickly as possible🧸. 

If you didn’t know, each of the games listed above has an average play time of around 20 - 30 hours, and that’s just the main story. So in total, you’re looking at approximately 115 hours to complete all of these. However, desa35 is aiming to get it all done in justܫ under seven days. So far, they’ve managed to get the and

It hasn’t all been smooth sailing though for this Kingdom Hearts fan though. In fact, just one day into the challenge desa35 accidentally and lost over five hours of progress. So, they did what any logical person would do and completely restarted the challenge again, going back to Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix. Whi🥀le playing KH1 again, they during the Deep Jungle section of the game and had to start over… again. 

In other Kingdom Hearts news, Square Enix recently released footage of the Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary celebration event that was held in Tokyo in April 2022. During the event, it was revealed by producer Ichiro Hazama that Kingdom Hearts 3 is the best-selling console game in the series. We also got to relive the now-iconic moment when 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 was first revealed to the group of attendees at the ev👍en🐓t. And yeah, it will probably give you goosebumps all over again. 

Want to give the same speedrunning challenge a go, or just get into the series? Plan the perfect playthrough with our guide to how to play the Kingdom Hearts series in order.

This figure comes from producer Ichiro Hazama who spoke during the Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary event in April of this year. During the event, fans got to experience a live orchestra, insights into the series' development, and perhaps most excitingly, their first look at 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4. 

The aforementioned event took place in Tokyo, Japa🔯n, and has now been released online for fans all over the world to see for themselves. The video doesn't include everything that happened during the event, but it does feature the important parts, including chats with the developers, including series director Tetsuya Nomura, a cameo from Kingdom Hearts theme song writer musician Utada Hikaru, and footage of the in-per꧋son crowd reacting to the reveal of Kingdom Hearts 4 - which made me emotional all over again. 

During the presentation, Hazama reflected on the success of Kingdom Hearts saying: "In total, there are many entries including final mix and others, but after ta🌞king all things into account, there are 13 entries in the series." Hazama continues, "and can you believe it, over 35 🌼million units have been sold." 

Perhaps most impressive of all, though, is that Kingdom Hearts 3 alone has sold 6.7 million copies globall꧟y. Hazama explains that this makes it "the highest achieving console game in the series over these last 20 years." Clearly, a 14-year wait in between mainline games will only make the heart grow fonder. 

Towards the end of the video, fans of t꧒he Kingdom Hearts mobile game Unchained X🏅 (aka Dark Road) got a pleasant surprise as the official release date for the offline version (Ver. 5.0.0) of Kingdom Hearts: Dark Road. Fans will be able to experience this for themselves on August 26, 2022.

During yesterday’s 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Nintendo Direct Mini it was revealed that Square Enix’s action-RPG NieR: Automata is getting a full Nintendo Switch port. Although great news to those who want to take 2B’s post-apocalyptic adventure on the go, some Kingdom Hearts fans can’t help but feel a bit bitter after Square Enix only released 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Cloud versions of the Disney-themed RPG to the Nintendo console earlier this year. 

The biggest gripe fans have with the Kingdom Hearts 'Integrum Masterpiece' collection for Nintendo Switch is that - generally - the games don’t perform very well on the system. In fact, on the collection's release day 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Square Enix had to put out a day one patch as some players couldn’t even access the titles due to a bug that prevented the 🌊games from launching upon start up.

Not only this, but the fact the Nintendo Switch has to be connected to the internet in order for players to even gain access to the Cloud versions of the games kind of defeats the purpose of having 🔯the Kingdom Hearts series on a handheld, and therefore transportable, console. 

Following yesterday’s announcement, the is now populated with a variety of mem🥂es which, in one way or another, pokes fun at ♈Square Enix’s preferential treatment of NieR: Automata. Of course, you could argue that it is a lot more work to port all 10 games in the 'Integrum Masterpiece' collection than the one NieR Automata game but, as many , a lot of the games in the collection were originally PS2 and Nintendo DS games. 

from

Twitter shows much of the same vibe with Twitter users such as saying: "I have every reason to be mad that Nier gets to be on t𒊎he Switch physically and digitally with no cloud version while Kingdom Hearts Only gets the Cloud Version. Unacceptable." 

Another Twitter user also vented their frustওration with the Cloud ports by saying: "Nier and Persona 5 are running on the Nintendo Switch. Natively. While Kingdom Hearts has been reduced to a cloud port."

Here’s hoping that Square Enix decides to fully port the entire Kingdom Hearts series onto Nintendo Switch eventually, hey maybe it'll even be done before 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 releases?

If you’re now considering trying out the whole series yourself (Cloud versions or not), find out how to get started with our how to play the Kingdom Hearts games in order guide. 

In an interview with , Nomura spoke about the upcoming mobile game Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link and said: "Compared to our past mobile releases, it's a lot closer to the series and also connected in many ways to Kingdom Hearts 4." If you didn’t know, Missing Link was announced during the Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary celebration in April and will apparently be launching as a closed beta later this ye♚ar.  

"The eas𓄧iest way to get more new information and hints about Kingdom Hearts 4 would be first to play Missing Link," Nomura revealed in the same interview. "I know that not everybody is really into smartphone games, so some fans might not be really excited for it, but we are making it so that it's something that anyone can jump right into."

Previous Kingdom Hearts games such as Kingdom Hearts X (aka ♏'Unchained X' or 'Dark Road') provided a lot of context for Kingdom Hearts 3. These smaller titles did appear to overcomplicate an already complex story, especially if you didn’t dip your toes into the spin-off stories at all before playing Kingdom Hearts 3, so it’s good to hear that Nomura is considering newer fans this time around with Missing Link. 

It doesn’t look like Nomura is leaving Kingdom Hearts X out of Kingdom Hearts 4 though, as in the reveal trailer we can see that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Strelitzia makes an appearance in the sequel after mostly only appeaꦦring in Kingdom Hearts X. So it's probably wise at least familiarise yourself with all of Nomura’s past Kingdom Hearts efforts before the release of Kingdom He𒆙arts 4.

Elsewhere in the interview, Nomura gave an insight into the future of Final Fantasy in Kingdom Hearts 4. 

In an interview with , Nomura discussed the lack of Final Fantasy characters in the more recent Kingdom Hearts titles explaining: "A lot of fans are saying that Kingdom Hearts is this collaboration between Disney characters and Final Fantasy characters. But I really feel like that's not the basic concep🎐t of Kingdom Hearts; that's not eꦅxactly what Kingdom Hearts is."

If you weren’t aware, in the first Kingdom Hearts game our protagonist Sora meets up with the likes of Cloud Strife, Sephiroth, Squall Leonhart (aka Leon), Yuffie, Aerith, Ciꦬd, Tidus, and more. In its sequel, Kingdom Hearts 2, we wer🉐e then introduced to more Final Fantasy characters such as Tifa, Auron, Yuna, Rikku, and others. So when Kingdom Hearts 3 rolled around, fans were surprised to not see any Final Fantasy characters until the game’s DLC Kingdom Hearts Re:Mind was released. 

Giving more context to why the classic Square Enix characters were ever involv꧅ed in the first place, Nomura said: "When we released the first title, we had only a few original Kingdom Hearts characters. When they were interacting with really well-known, beloved Disney characters, I felt nobody really knew these new characters, so it was harder for them to stand their ground just yet." Nomura’s solution was to introduce a lot of recognizable Final Fantasy characters to "lend a hand for everyone to get to know these [o🌼riginal Kingdom Hearts] characters better."

As for whether we’ll see our favorite Final Fantasy characters in Kingdom Hearts 4, Nomura revealed: 💖"That's something we definitely are thinking about. But just with the sheer number of original characters that we have now, it's h🍨ard to say what the exact balance is going to be and how it will play out in Kingdom Hearts 4." 

Now feel like catching up with this magical Square Enix series? Let us to point you in the right direction with our guide. 

"With regards to Kingdom Hearts 4, players are definitely going to see a few Disney worlds in there," Nomura tells . "I just want to mention that they don't need to worry so much about this aspect of the game. It might feel slightly different from previous Kingdom Hearts titles, but onc𓂃e players have had a chance to play the game, I'm sure they'll be relieved to find that it is definitely a Kingdom H▨earts title."

Nomura does note that the increase of graphical qualities in each successive Kingdom Hearts game "kind of limits the number of worlds tha🤪t we can create in a sense. At this time we're considering how to approach that, but there will be Disney worlds ♏in Kingdom Hearts 4."

The continued inclusion of Disney shouldn't come as much of a surprise - after all, Donald and Goofy were in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:debut trailer. But the focus on the hyper-realistic Quadratum location in that trailer suggested that we might be seeing more grounded locations in thജe new game꧂.

Nomura adds that Kingdom Hearts' most realistic world was previously Pirates of the Caribbean, and "this time ꦇaround we’re spending some time in the actual real world." The devs aimed to challenge themselves to see "just to see how realistic can we make this."

While there will🌃 be plenty of Disney, Nomura seems to suggest that there won't be much Final Fantasy this time around. Nomura describes the inclusion of FF characters in the original Kingdom Hearts as a way to help introduce players to the game's original cast. Once the new characters became established, "it was hard to find room for 💟including more Final Fantasy characters. We're trying to find a good balance for that."

The announcement of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 was undoubtedly a surprise to us all, but no one more than Bill Farmer who, despite playing one of the main characters in the series, only found out that a sequel was i🦹n the works this weekend. 

This news comes from Twitter user (thanks, ), who says that they broke the news to Farmer during a meet and greet at MomoCon 2022 over the weekend. "You know, they never tell me these things, I only find out from fans at conventions," Farmer 🍨responded, before adding: "At least I know I've got work coming."

We’re sure the news must have just gotten lost in the Traverse Town post office and is no way a sign that Farmer is not returning for the sequel. In fact, the short teaser released last month hasn’t yet been dubbed in English, 🌸or any other languages for that matter. 

What this probably means is that Square Enix really is still in the early stages of development with Kingdom Hearts 4, so most likely hasn’t started recording or casting for the English language version 💛yet. ⛄Hence why Farmer - probably much like a few other members of the international Kingdom Hearts cast - has only just found out about his future role. 

If you too have only just heard about Kingdom Hearts 4, here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming sequel: After being unexpectedly announced during the Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary celebration in Japan ꦅin April, series director Tetsuya Nomura has revealed a few minor details about the upcoming game in a number of interviews. 

So far, we know that Sora’s next adventure is going to take place in Quadratum - a world more similar to the real-life Tokyo than the fantasy worlds our main protagonist is used to exploring - and that he will be joined by Kingdom Hearts X character 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Strelitzia as well as Donald and Goofy at some point. There are also theories that Kingdom Hearts 4 could be the game to finally incorporate the likes of Star Wars into the Disney 𝓡x Finaဣl Fantasy crossover series. 

Want to get started with the long-running series and don’t know where to start? Take a look at our how to play the Kingdom Hearts games in order before Kingdom Hearts 4 guide. 

As highlighted by several Kingdom Hearts fans, including Twitter user , Taco Bell has released a new commercial advertising its recently released Mexican Pizza 🐲dish, and Sora gets a mention in the jingle. 

A few seconds into the ad, the line: "We eating all our order, key to my heart like Sora" can be heard. Although it’s only a brief mention, there’s no doubt that the advertisers working on this campaign w♏ere making reference to the Square Enix protagonist. You can see it for yourself below. 

As expected, fans were completely dumbfounded by Sora’s mention in the advert with several to share their shock and a series of hilarious memes. This even includes @aitaikimochi who also of Sora working behind the Taco Bell counter due to the suspected high cost of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:his $1.2 million apartment in Tokyo - as seen in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer. 

The recent Kingdom Hearts weirdness doesn’t end there though. Over the same weekend, it was also revealed that . During one scene, fans have spotted not one but two references to the spikey-haired keyblade wielder. Speaking of, the two references are Sora’s iconic hairdo and the equally as r﷽ecognizable Kingdom Key. 

Despite being one of Square Enix’s biggest IPs, it’s always a surprise to see 🍷references to the game in other media. In 2022 alone, references to the JRPG were spotted in as well as in the Disney+ film . Here’s hoping we see more not-so-subtle cameos leading up to the release of Kingdom🌠 Hearts 4. 

In even weirder Kingdom Hearts news, it turns out Goofy's English voice actor didn't even know Kingdom Hearts 4 was happening until a fan told them. 

Now the dust has had time to settle, we've been able to gather our thoughts on the Kingdom Hearts 3 ending and put together some cohesive theories on where the characters and the series as a whole has ended up, in the wake of that explosive finale. Read on as we share our knowledge and informed speculation, to give you the lowdown on the conclusion to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3.

*Beyond this point there are major story spoilers for Kingdom Hearts 3 - but that's why you're here, right?*

Graveyard Showdown

Sora and the gang head to the Keyblade Graveyard to meet up with Xehanort and his 13 vessels to initiate the keyblade war. At this point, Sora has rescued both Aqua and Ventus, meaning there are seven keyblade wielders ready to meet the 13 vessels of darkness. Sora faces off against a gauntlet of foes. Im🐲portant to note is that whilst we see everybody die, the game makes a point of showing you that one of the boss battle participants, Xigbar, escapes. Sora then rescues Roxas, Xion and Terra and defeats the main three villains of the entire franchise, namely Young Xehanort, Ansem and Xemnas.🧸 

As Sora heads tꦆo the final fight with Master Xehanort, he murders Kairi in front of him. Xehanort then forges the x-blade, opens Kingdom Hearts and fill💙s it with darkness. 

Scala Ad Caelum

After a series of boss battles, you best Xehanort, but he has still won. Kingdom Hearts has been consumed by darknꦛess. That is until Eraqus appears, an old friend of Xehanort and mentor of Terra, Aqua and Ventus, who has been hiding in Terra’s heart since Birth By Sleep.

Eraqus reminds Xehanort of the chess matches they used to play as children, in particular, a game where Eraqus was on the back foot but told Xehanort that there is “more to light than meets the eye”. This game Eraqus is re🅰ferring to is a chess game they played as children that, for all intents and purposes, forms the basis of the entire plot of the Kingdom Hearts series. This game is alluded to throughout Kingdom Hearts 3 in cutscenes from the opening to the end. This is Eraqus’ winning move in the chess match, the final play of the game they’re playing, and by proxy, the game series as we know it so far.

Xehanort fully yields, s🤪ees the 🔜power of the light and entrusts the x-blade to Sora and his friends. Later, in the Keyblade Graveyard, Sora makes a bold decision to strike out on his own and go after Kairi, who was the main casualty of the battle.

Aqua, Ventus and Terra mourn Eraqus’ passing once more at the place where they trained under him, the Land of Departure. Ventus sees his Chirithy, the one that spoke to Sora in the afterlife. (Ventus was a member of the Dandelions, a special keyblade union from a previous era meant to travel to a separate timeline to protect the light after the first Keyblade🔯 War. Each Cross-era wielder received a Chirithy.) This is interesting, as it confirms that this Ventus is the same Ventus from that timeline, so he’s been involved in some kind of time travel mumbo jumbo.

Riku visits Radiant Garden and meets up with N💃amine, who has been reawakened by the scientists using one of the spare vessels. We then cut to another ending video. In this one, all members of the main cast are seen on the beach of Destiny Islands.

We then cut to see Sora and Kairi sitting on a branch of the iconic Paopu tree. Suddenlyꦕ, a tear rolls dow✨n Kairi’s cheek as Sora’s form starts to disappear and he fades into nothingness. Kairi is back, but Sora is… gone.

The Epilogue

After that bombshell, we cut to the epilogue, where a hooded figure receives the fallen Xehanort’s keyblade, No Name, after the♕ events of Kingdom Hearts 3. The figure picks it up, 🌌and four of the Foretellers (union leaders) from the ancient era before the Keyblade War appear in front of the figure.

After some squabbling, the hooded figure is recognised as Luxu, the sixth Foreteller who was chosen by their coll🐭ective master, the Master of Masters, to go on a secret mission, taking the keyblade No Name (which contains the master’s all-seeing eye) and passing it down from master to apprentice so that he can see the events of the future. He was also entrusted with a Black Box, the contents of which we are yet to understand.

After more protesting, the hooded Luxu then reveals himself to be Xigbar, who we thought perished during 🥀the Skein of Severan🎐ce. It’s suggested that Luxu has taken many forms across time, but his main form has been Xigbar, who has been lying in wait amongst Xehanort’s ranks, a double agent serving the Master of Masters, out to usurp his keyblade once he falls so he can become the new ringleader and continue the mission. 

That time is now, and it looks like the greater plan the Master of Master’s had for Lux﷽u is about to be revealed. Unfortunatelꦬy, Xigbar is fairly tight-lipped about this.

We then return to Young Eraqus and Xehanort, who are playing chess once more. Eraqus brings out a new game of chess to play after the conclusion of the last one with Xehanort’s defeat. Seven pieces of darkness replace the thirte💃en, each symbolic of the four Foretellers from the epilogue, the missing Foreteller Ava, Luxu/Xigbar and the Master of Masters. 

Eraqus then places down just one piece of light before the epilogue ends, which appears to be symbolic of our missing protagonist Sora, though the next ꦍKingdom Hearts saga could easily be fronted by a new protagonist. The makeup of this chessboard is essentially the backbone of the next Kingdom Hearts game.

This suggests that the Foretellers will fa𓂃ll to darkness in some shape or form. A▨s for the missing Foreteller, Ava, it’s anyone's guess.

The Secret Video 

In the video, a sleeping Sora wakes up in a puddle. We’re shown the sights of Shibuya, Japan. The famous 109 building has been changed to read 104, something popularized in the Shibuya of Squa🎉re Enix’s The World Ends With You, a cult JRPG whose characters have previously featured quite heavily in Kingdom Hearts with the 3DS title Dream Drop Distance. 

After Sora, we cut to Riku, and we see somebody watching Riku from atop a tower, and it turns out to be Yozora, the protagonist of the game Verum Rex that was teased in the opening movie to the Toy Box world earlier in Kingdom Heart🐲s 3. Verum Rex is a fictional in-universe game that takes a lot of inspiration from Final Fantasy Versus 13.

Specifically, it is evocative of Nomura’s vision for that game before it was amalgamated into the Final Fan🐽tasy XV we know now. You can see it in the character designs of Verum Rex, with all of them looking parallel to Noctis anꦆd his pals. You can also hear a tinge of Somnus in the Secret Video score near the end.

We then see the Master of Masters on a rooftop making a box and then a heart gesture with his hands over the moon on a Tokyo rooftop. We can surmise this is the Master of Masters as there is no reason for any ot🦂her character to hide with a cloak anymore, what with the reveal of Luxu as Xigbar.

As for where that leaves us: It looks like Sora is missing in the Shibuya of 2007’s The World Ends With You.ꦡ Seeing as Kairi appears to be alive as per the ending movie, perhaps Sora had to sacrifice himself to save her, which has pushed him into this new world. 

Riku, after an unseen rend🍃ezvous with Namine, has gone after Sora, supposedly to rescue him, and has landed in the world of Verum Rex. 

Our guess is that this is the﷽ next♍ chess game that Eraqus and Xehanort are playing, the next saga of Kingdom Hearts, with the Foretellers as the villains and Sora (or another protagonist of the light) in the hot seat. It looks like the next game will take us to Square Enix worlds rather than Disney ones, or perhaps a mix of both. 

Xigbar/Luxu could well have manipulated all of the Foretellers into aiding with his mischievous plan during the meeting at the Graveyard, parallel to how Terra-Xehanort recruited the scientists at Radiant Garden into Organization XIII. This would exꩲplain why they are on the darkside of the chessboard. The Foretellers have always been misguided and of questionable morality, as they were at the whim of the Master of Masters, a neꦐfarious character who we still know little about. 

There is also the conundrum of Subject X, a character referenced in passing throughout Kingdom Hearts 3. Subject X was one of the experimental subjects of Ansem the Wise. Via the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3 battlegates Secret Reports, we learn that X is from the age of fairytales and was taken from the dungeon of Radiant Garden by a person with an eyepatch, most likely Xigbar/Luxu. Perhaps she is in the mysterious Black Box. This is suggested to be another Dandelion from the old era, as they can remember four friends, so it could easily be Skuld (or even Ava, but that’s far more tenuous.) We also hear from Strelitzia, another Dandelion who was killed during the events of Union Cross by an unknown assailant. They are the ‘Nameless Star’ in The Final World (basically the Kingdom Hearts afterlife𓆏), looking forꦗ their brother Lauriam, another Dandelion who is the human version of the Nobody Marluxia.

We also learn from the Secret Reports that one of the Dandelions was an imposter not chosen by the Master of Masters who allowed the union leaders to escape into the modern timeline. Perhaps this is Ventus, who we know is the same Dandelion Ventus from the Union Cross era. If you recall, his own memory is terribly h꧒azy prior to the events of Birth By Sleep. Now that we know he’s been around longer than most of the main cast, questions do start to linger!

While we don't know any details about the Lost Master Arc, Square Enix has confirmed that Sora, Donald, and Goofy will return for a new adventure, so the core cast of characters will remain the same. And the promise of a new storyline brings with it the hope that this game could be unshackled from confusing lore. With a new story saga, Kingdom Hearts 4 could (and should) be more approachable to new players and a welcome respite for lapsed adventure𒆙rs.

Lost the plot 

If you're looking for the source of all the Kingdom Hearts confusion, look no further than the Dark Seeker Saga. The Dark Seeker Saga features all the games that take place between Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts 3 - it is, in essence, the story of Kingdom Hearts. But that story features so many twists and turns, time jumps and possessions that many players fell off the narrative ride🐭 midway through. A bri💞ef attempt at a summary of the Dark Seeker Saga may help you understand just how much heavy lifting is required to understand these games (which were originally meant for children, by the way).

The Dark Seeker Saga tells the story of the battle between Sora and Xehanort, who is basically this universe's version of a Sith Lord. Xehanort is the titular Dark Seeker, a man born on the same island as Sora who yearns to see other worlds, but whose travels and studies lead him to believe that these worlds should be remade in darkness' image. Consumed by the desire to open Kingdom Hearts (a heart-shaped moon that is the source of all light in the world), Xehanort and others bring in the Heartless - dark creatures that invade worlds until they consume them entirely. Sora, Donald, and Goofy are tasked with stopping th🦹e Heartless from consuming Disney worlds; that task is given to them by Final Fantasy characters whose worlds were destroyed by the Heartless.

While this seems straightforward-i🍬sh, there are dozens of examples of cloning, possessions, time-travel, heart sharing, and doubling in Kingdom Hearts. This, naturally, makes the plot very difficult to follow, and makes characters' motivations inherently unclear. Throughout the Dark Seeker Saga, a variety of Xehanort variants/versions crop up, including Xemnas, Ansem, Master Xehanort, and Terra-Xehanort. Master Xehanort has an apprentice named Ventus, whose heart resides in Sora but who looks a helluva lot like Roxas, a character introduced in Kingdom Hearts 2 that is So♚ra's Nobody. 

What's a Nobody, you ask? A Nobody is the husk of a person that remains after a heart has been consumed by darkness, and there's a whol🦩e dang organization of Nobodies running around desperate to regain their hearts. They're the 🏅main bad guys of Kingdom Hearts 2, but you later learn that they're having their strings pulled by none other than Xehanort, who goes by Ansem at this point in the story. It only gets more confusing from there, and all the narrative twisting and turning culminates in a very confusing Kingdom Hearts 3. 

The Master of Masters 

Kingdom Hearts' plot eludes even the most dedicated players. Hell, I needed to watch several YouTube videos and read dozens of Wikis just to get even a superficial understanding of what's going on here - and I played Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 multiple times over. But if we strip away all of the excessive plot twists and character doubling and possessions, Kingdom Hearts' core themes are beautifully simple. 𒀰These are games about the power of friendship and love, t🌄he strength that comes from within, and the eternal battle between light and dark.

The Lost Master Arc can and should leverage those themes to tell a concise story, but the threat of a convoluted tale looms overhead. Kingdom Hearts 3 references the Lost Masters✱ in its opening scene, with Xehanort saying they are "the ones who started the Keyblade War." That war, which took place long before the events in Kingdom Hearts, was waged between those who wanted the x-blade, a keyblade that can control and open Kingdom Hearts. The Lost Masters were trained by the Master of Masters, who tasked them with watching over the world and preventing it from falling into darkness - which they failed to do, with all but one of them succumbing to rage and taking part in the war for power.

Kingdom Hearts fans believe the Lost Master Arc refers to the Master of Masters (or maybe the Foretellers, but we'll spare you that here), whose identity is still unknown. The bulk of the Master of Masters' story takes place long before the events of the Dark Seeker Saga, so Kingdom Hearts 4 could bounce ba🦂ck and forth between time periods. This won't help keep the story condensed, especially with Sora currently stuck in a world called Quadratum, that's technically a world within the Toy Story universe that's technically the afterlife. I know, right?

But if Kingdom Heart꧒s 4 remains laser-focused on the story of the Lost Masters and the Master of Masters, it can gloss over all of the confusing stuff that's happened in the other games. We don't need to know which version of Xehanort possessed one of his enemy's apprentices or how Sora came to have another person's heart inside of him - we just need to see what happens when people tasked with preserving peace🅷 fail because of their own weaknesses. Kingdom Hearts 4 can excise the more confusing aspects of the series and give us a story steeped in its strong core themes. If it does this, old and new fans alike will embrace it, with the former grateful for a respite from convoluted stories, and the latter drawn in by the promise of a more accessible tale. 

There's nothing quite like Kingdom Hearts, but the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best JRPGs take us to similarly fantastical worlds.  

1. Twilight Town Postcards

One of the simplest, but perhaps most annoying methods of obtaining one Kingdom Hearts 3 Orichalcum+ is by playing the Moogle lottery. Sometimes when you buy something from the Moogle shop (ꦆwe think it's after you spend 200 Munny), you receive a Prize P🏅ostcard. These can be posted at the postbox in Twilight Town, right next to the save point in Tram Common.

Every time you put a Prize Postcard in the postbox, you receive an item. This item is random, and there's a slim chance it can be Orichalcum+. So essentially, you have to keep buying things from the Moogle shop and posting Pri🍷ze Postcards until the random chance gives you an Orichalcum+. Fun, right?

2. The Caribbean Treasure Chest

Not all Orichalcum+ are🌳 hard to obtain. This one is simply inside a chest in The Caribbean world. Head out to 🍎the High Seas and travel to Exile Island. In the middle of the island you'll find a chest containing the precious material.

3. The Final World Treasure Chest

Remember that mysterious location where you met the Chirithy and Sora's entire surroundings were an infinite sky? If you fast travel to the Keyblade Graveyard - Badlands🙈, then turn around and go back to the initial arena, you can take the pink warp gate back to The Final World. Right in front of you will be another chest with some Orichalcum+.

4. Collect all Frozen Slider Treasures

In Arendelle, Elsa has a very fun mini game for you to try out. Called Frozen Slider, Sora hops on Goofy's shield with Donald and you slide down the North Mountain, collecting points, grinding rails and zooming through ice caverns. If you want to get 600,000 points make sure you follow our 澳洲幸运5开奖号꧅码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3 S♑hield Shredder award guide, but for the Orichalcum+ you need to collect the 10 treasures littered throughout the short course♔. Make sure you're checking every corner and crevice, because these treasures can be tricky to fi🌳nd. After you find all 10, you'll receive another Orichalcum+.

5. Collect all 90 lucky emblems

You've no doubt stumbled upon a few hidden Mickeys - or lucky emblems, to give them their proper name - during your Kingdom Hearts 3 journey. There are 90 of them in total and once you collect every single one, you'll obtain another Orichalcum+. Struggling to find them? Fear not, for we have a complete guide to all 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3 lucky emblems locations.

6. Defeat the Omega Space Ship

Hop in your Gummi Ship, because a space skirmish is the method of obtaining the next Orichalcum+. Go to the Eclipse galaxy (the third and final one) and surrounding the outside of the huge structure that takes up the m𝓡ajority of the environment are five enemies. One on each of the four sides, with a final one for good luck underneath. Defeat all five of these enemies and the lights leading to the top should turn on. This will cause the Omega Space Ship to spawn, which is a huge boss who puts up one hell of a fight. Take it down and you'll receive the sixth Kingdom Hearts Orichalcum+.

7. Complete all Flantastic Seven missions

As you complete each of the main worlds in Kingdom Hearts 3, there will be a Flan waiting for you somewhere when you return. You need to participate in each of their mini games to earn a trophy, as explained in our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3 Flanmeister award guide, but you need to do slightly more than that ♛for the Orichalcum+. Every Flan mini game has a score threshold that you need to beat to earn three of the respective ingredient, and a new ability. Beat this high score for every single one - you'll know when you've done it at the end because the Flan will jump up and down, clapping it's short arms - and when you've done all seven, the final Orichalcum+ will be yours.

For the final Classic K🌸ingdom game, look for the enormous blue building with a red tr✃im around the top and Japanese writing. Head to the northern side then leap off the top. At the bottom is an advertising pillar that you can dive smash to earn Mickey Steps Out.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #1 - Flame Core

I need oven mitts to handle that hothead, kupo.

T👍he first photo mission you recꦬeive wants you to take a picture of a Flame Core. You come across these enemies very early in the game but if you didn't grab it the first time around, head back to Olympus and go to the Thebes Overlook save point. Head down the stairs and the first enemies you find will be a bunch of Flame Cores. Taking photos of moving enemies is very inconsistent though, so you may need to take a few shots before the game recognises your picture.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #2 - Water Core

That fiend keeps getting my pom-pom wet, kupo!

For this one, the best place to find a Water Core is in Monstropolis. Spawn at the Factory Basement and take the elevator up one level, then run round the corner and past the first lot of enemies. When you're in the blue roo🌼m with the pipes, a number of Water Cores should spawn.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #3 - Chief Puff

Fluffy doesn't always mean nice, kupo!

Chief Puffs are most commonly found throughout the Kingdom of Corona. They're the guys with the fluffy heads that grow incredibly tall when you attack them. Spawn at the Forest Hills and head back towards the start of the forest to find one after the first set of enemies🌼.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #4 - Hercules Statue

I can't get over those chiseled muscles, kupo.

Now we're onto taking photos of things that don't move around, thankfully. First up is the under constru💮ction Hercu🌞les statue in the middle of Thebes Agora. Simply spawn there, turn around and take a photo of it.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #5 - Beasts and Bugs Wall Display

Mechasmasher's busting through the wall, kupo!

Inside the ꧂Action+ store on the first floor of Galaxy Toys is where you&a👍pos;ll find the Beasts and Bugs section. Clamber up on top of some of the free-standing displays to take a picture of the main wall display at the very back.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #6 - Rapunzel's Tower

Who built that tower in the forest, kupo?

This is a simple one. Spawn at Rapunzel's Towe🎀r in the Kingdom of Corona, turn around and snap a picture.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #7 - Festival

Wish I could ditch work and see the festival, kupo.

🍸Head to the Kingdom of Corona and take a picture from under the archway of the Festival, with the huge doors in the background.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #8 - Fire in the Secluded Forge

It takes a hot fire to forge lightning bolts, kupo!

Go back to Olympus and spawn at the Realm of the Gods Corridors. Walk forward and up the small stairs, then go up the next set𝔍 of stairs past the lucky emblem. Hop on the water feature and grind it to the end, then drop down the hole to find the Secluded Forge. In here, take a photo of the fireplace from next to the anvil.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #9 - Zeus

"King of the gods" to some, "Dad" to others, kupo.

Stay in Olympus and go to the Realm of the Gods Apex, where you'll find Zeus stood outside the golden gates. Snap a picture of him to compl𓆏🌟ete the mission.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #10 - Tram

I love watching the tram go by at twilight, kupo.

Go back to Twilight Town and take a p🍎hoto of the tram ൲as it passes by.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #11 - CDA Agent

Give that hard worker in yellow a raise, kupo!

CDA Agents can only be found in Monstropolis, and the easiest one to take a photo of is in the Power Plant 🥀Tank Yard. Spawn there and at the other side of the room is a very long ♛legged chap in yellow.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #12 - Ice Palace

Somehow I doubt that palace has a fireplace, kupo.

Go to the North Mountain Ridge where Elsa, Anna and co. are all stood arounꦯd in the cold. You just need to take a photo of Elsa's enormous ice palace 🌼in the background.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #13 - Olaf

I think I saw a walking, talking snowman, kupo!

In the same place, take a photo of Olaf standinꦅg by himself.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #14 - Big Green Cactuar

Wait, kupo... That green guy looks familiar, kupo!

Go to the Kid🐠 Korral creche area of Toy Box, behind Play Place on the top floor of Galaxy Toys. You need to take a photo of the huge green cactus man you assembled during the story to reach the upper vents.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #15 - Scarecrow

He helps keep the birds out of the fields, kupo.

Go back t🉐o Twilight Town and enter 100 Acre Wood through Merlin's book outside of the Little Bistro. Take a photo of the funky scarecrow near the pumpkin in the field.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #16 - Evening Star

There it is, kupo. My lucky star, kupo!

Go to San Fransokyo and make sure it's night time. Look into the sky and you should be able to see a single star shining brightly in the sky. Take a photo o🎐f it to ไcomplete this photo mission.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #17 - Fish-shaped Wind Socks

Those fish are swimming through the air, kupo!

Turn San Fransokyo to day time then climb the tall blue cylindrical building south of the North District save point. Look north and you'll see a couple of the huge fans in the air are decorate✤d like blue♈, white, black and red fish. Take a photo of one of them at day time.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #18 - Waterfall

Stay by the falls to beat the tropical heat, kupo!

Fa🤪ಞst travel to the Fort in The Caribbean and leave via the back entrance, then follow the path down until you reach the small stone bridge with the waterfall on your left.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #19 - Demon Tower

Show me a creepy, shadowy swarm, kupo!

If you're unsure of where to find a Demon Tower, you can actually force one to spawn. Go to the Power Plant Tank Yard in Monstropolꦯis and walk outside, then grind up the pipe on your left. In the room you exit the pipe from, interact with the blue battlegate and start it to spawn a Demon Tower boss 𝕴battle. Take a photo of it then kill it to earn one of the many Kingdom Hearts 3 secret reports and complete the photo mission in the same fight.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Photo Mission #20 - Sora's Teammates

I moogle-salute all your fierce friends, kupo!

For this, you n🃏eed to take a photo of all 🍃12 of Sora's teammates across the main worlds. Here is everyone you need to take a picture of to complete the final photo mission:

• General - Donald & Goofy
• Olympus - Hercules
• Toy Box - Woody & Buzz Lightyear
• Kingdom of Corona - Flynn Rider & Rapunzel
• Monstropolis - Sully & Mike Wazowski
• Arendelle - Marshmallow
• The Caribbean - Captain Jack Sparrow
• San Fransokyo - Baymax

When you've 𓆉taken and saved a photo of all 12 of Sora's teammates, you will have completed all𝔍 of the Kingdom Hearts 3 photo missions.

Pears can be found at Mount Olympus, while you need to visit the Cherry Flan at the top of Thebes Overlook for a Sour Cherry or two.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - Twilight Town

Twilight Town offers a bunch of different ingredients in both the fruit bowls and Chinese food boxes dotted around. The former can contain Apples, Apricots and Lemons, while the takeaway boxes can have Butter, Cheese, Chocolate, Caviar, Sole and Veal. Out at the Abandoned Mansion is where you can also find herbs like Thyme and Cloves.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - Toy Box

Right outside of Andy's House is his front garden which has a bunch of different herbs in. You'll find Basil, Bay Leaf, Cloves, Parsley, Rosemary and Thyme here. Head on over to Galaxy Toys where you'll find a number of Chinese food boxes again with Butter, Caviar, Cheese, Cornichons, Garlic and Onions. Up in the Rest Area of Galaxy Toys is the Strawberry Flan - simply complete the mini game to earn a Strawberry.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - Kingdom of Corona

In the Kingdom of Corona Forest, you'll find a lot of wild ingredients like Black Trumpets, Black Truffles, Chanterelles, Morels and more. Check the water areas of the Marsh too for some Eels. Head over to the Thoroughfare and hop in the water by the waterfront to grab some Cod, Sea Bass and Mussels. Leave Thoroughfare via the bridge and take a right down to the Shore, where you can find Scallops on the beach and Lobster in the water. Go back up to the main street in the Thoroughfare and all the carts and market stalls can provide plenty of fruits and vegetables like Tomato, Zucchini, Pumpkin and Garlic. Throughout the rest of the Forest, expect to find herbs like Basil and Rosemary. Head right back to the very start of the world to find the Blood Orange Flan who will provide you with - yep, you guessed it - Blood Oranges.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - Monstropolis

Monstropolis is a linear world so you'll get most of what you're after on your first run through, but if you're after any more, the three main ingredients you'll find in the Chinese takeaway boxes are Beef, Olive Oil, and Onion. You can also find the Banana Flan through the left-most brown door in the Door Vault to earn some tasty Bananas.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - Arendelle

The frozen mountainscape of Arendelle isn't particularly lush for foraging, but there's a couple of things you can find like Apples and Carrots inside crates and barrels. There's a few Gooseberry and Raspberry bushes around too, along with Portobello mushrooms.You can find the Grape Flan off the side of the North Mountain Ridge for some delicious Grapes.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - The Caribbean

As expected, The Caribbean has a number of ocean based wildlife you can obtain. Crabs and Lobster can be found everywhere across the islands on the High Seas, and you can also find Dill, Miller Mushrooms and Porcini on the shores. Quail, Apricots and other food can also be found on the Port Royal waterfront, inside crates and market stalls. Head over to the top of the Fort in Port Royal for the Watermelon Flan, which is the only pl🌳ace you can obtain the delicious fruit. 

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - San Fransokyo

San Fransokyo and the world of Big Hero 6 isn't home to many ingredients, most of which you can also find elsewhere. The big one is Melon though obtainable from the Honeydew Flan which only spawns at night time on top of a building in the central area of the city. You'll also find Beef, Quail and Eel throughout the bustling town.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - 100 Acre Wood

You'll still have a lot of ingredients left to discover and for most of those, you'll want to head to the land of Winnie the Pooh. There are three separate match-three mini games that all follow the same rules, but offer different rewards. One is great for vegetables, another for fruit, and the final one exclusively gives out Honey. If you're struggling for any fruit or vegetables, play a few games in 100 Acre Wood and you should be sorted. Common rewards here include Blackberry, Zucchini, Carrots, Oranges and Eggplants.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - Moogle Shop

Throughout your playthrough of Kingdom Hearts 3, a number of ingredients will appear in the Moogle Shop which are exclusive. This means you can't find them anywhere else. In our experience, these ingredients are Celery, Rice, and Saffron. If you're💮 struggling to find any of these, check your nearest Mo💮ogle Shop and you should be able to buy them.

Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients - Filet Mignon

You've probably noticed that the one ingredient we haven't covered is Filet Mignon, and that's because it's obtained in a unique fashion. The only way to﷽ get Filet Migno🦹n in Kingdom Hearts 3 is to go to the Little Bistro and earn Excellent grades while cooking meals. You won't receive it every time, but sometimes you'll be rewarded with one Filet Mignon on top of the meal you cooked. 

All of these ingredients are used at the bistro in Twiligh🏅t Town. If you earn an Excellent score on every single meal, you'll earn the Master Chef trophy/achievement, so get cooking!

With 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 in “early development” and tantalizingly perched just over the horizon, we’re ready to explore where Sora, Donald and Goofy should head next. After all, there have been some🍸 serious blind spots in Kingdom Hearts, and several Disney deep cuts and hidden gems that have yet to be mined. 

So grab your keybl﷽ades and rev up your Gummi Ships. Here are the 10 Disney worlds we want to see in Kingdom Hearts 4.

Coco

Kingdom Hearts finally opened the door to Pixar’s library of classics with the inclusion of Toy Story and Monsters Inc. in Kingdom Hearts 3. Kingdom Hearts 4 offers a chance for, arguably, the animation studio’s best movie in a decade to make its mark – bolstered by the ﷺgraphical prowess of Unreal Engine 5.

Coco🎃 follows frustrated musician Miguel through the Land of the Dead in the hopes of finding his great-great♏-grandfather – a legendary singer.

The Pixar release already seems ﷽tailor-made for the Kingdom Hearts treatment: We can picture Sora, Goofy, and Donald in their skeletal Day of the Dead get-ups, while the carnival of color surrounding the film’s musical energy would really pop on the current generation of consoles. From a gameplay perspective, Coco could also be a way for a series to freshen up after the overuse of the similarly-styled The Nightmare Before Christmas. ♐Most of all, we just want to hear Kingdom Hearts’ take on ‘Remember Me.'

Star Wars

Disney owns Lucasfilm, the creators of Star Wars, so this is totally fair game – and could follow in the footsteps of the likes of Tron and Pirates of the Caribbean as live-act♕ion properties that made the leap from cinema to consoles.

Sora swapping his Keyblade for a lightsaber already seems like a no-brainer as, to෴o, does pitting Disney’s great and good up against the likes of Darth Vader and the Emperor. What we wouldn’t 🔯give for a trip to the Death Star or smacking down some Organization XIII members on Tatooine.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:A minor detail in the initial Kingdom Hearts 4 reveal trailer already has fans speculating that Endor could be part of the game – which makes a galaxy far, far a𒅌way less of a pipe dream than you might expect.

The Jungle Book

It’s difficult to believe that The Jungle Book, Disney’s 1967 adaptation of the Rudyard Kipling story, hasn’t already appeared in Kingdom Hearts. For one thing, it’s got a savannah’s worth𝄹 of iconic characters – including Baloo and Mowgli – that could make for perfect companions, plus a cherry on top that heightens any Kingdom Hearts level: a classic song in the shape of the Bear Necessities. The series’ penchant for remixing classic Disney villains into boss battles also works in Jungle Book’s favor as Shere Kꦑhan would make a formidable opponent for all but the most skilled of Keyblade Masters.

We could alsoജ envision Jungle Book taking some cues from Winnie the Pooh’s 100 Acre Wood by sprinkling in some rhythm minigames and other side activities across its luscious, sprawling environments. Let’s just hope it would be a little less confusing than the original 2002 game’s labyrinthian Tarzan levels.

Moana

This is a great idea, right? You’re welcome. Disney’s seafaring adventure seem🦋ed to usher in a new generation of stories at the company, ones specifically 🎃focused on the backgrounds, heritages, and histories of underrepresented groups.

Moana, specifically, revolves around the Polynesians on the island of Motuni. There, a girl name🔴d Moana is tasked with finding the demigod Maui so they can h🌄elp overcome the blight afflicting the island.

That quest alone is set up perfectly for a couple of hours of Kingdom Hearts magic. Throw in some 🐼vehicle sections on the high seas and you’ve got the perfect evolution of Destiny Islands from the original Kingdom Hearts ready and waiting for Sora to stamp around in.

Wreck-It Ralph

We got 𒁏a taste of what Wreck-It Ralph could offer during his debut as a summon in Kingdom Hearts 3, as well as Game Central Station appearing in mobile spin-off Union X. The opportunity to flesh out that concept further or visit a fully 🏅realized Litwak’s Arcade, though, is too good to turn down.

Series creator Tetsuya Nomura could get deliciously meta with the cabinets on offer. It would be a seamless way to homage various classic ⛎video games – such as Donkey Kong and mascot kart racers – 🧔without stepping into lawsuit territory.

Now that Sora is in Smash Bros, there’s even the remotest of possibilities that Nintendo could return the favor and allow one of their characters – such as Bowser, who appeared in Wreck-It Ralph – to appear. Forget Avengers: Infinity War, that would be the ultimate crossover.

The Emperor’s New Groove

One of the most overlooked Disney features in recent memory, The Emperor’s New Groove d🐻eserves its moment in the sun in Kingdom H⛦earts 4.

The 2000 animation stars David Spade as a selfish Incan ruler named Kuzco – who is accidentally turned into a llama. Because reasons. That would act as the p🐠erfect jumping-on point for Sora to arrive, hel🍃ping shepherd Kuzco through the events of the film.

Kingdom Hearts has already been great at lavishing attention on Disney’s more obvious classics. Kingdom Hearts 4 should mark the turning point towards a celebration of all things Disney – even those that didn’t light up the box office. Besides, The Emperor’s New Groove is ripe for a Kingdom Hearts makeover; the Incan Empire could provide fertile ground for Sq♛uare Enix’s always-imaginative team of level dᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚesigners.

Turning Red

Tur♍ning Red is Pixar’s most recent work, charting the struggles of Chinese-Canadian Meilin after she discovers her family’s ♕unfortunate curse: when she loses control of her emotions, she turns into a giant red panda.

Mechanically, this could work similarly to Kingdom Hearts 3’s San Fransokyo, a larger open world space for the Heartless to invade. It could also thematically tie into Sora stumbling his way around 🍷‘real’ locations in Quadratum. Kingdom Hearts 4 is already giving us its spin on Tokyo, so why not go further and bring Turning Red’s 2002-era Toronto into the mix?

It’d be a real missed opportunity, too, if the movie’s final ac🌸t – a stadium showdown against, you guessed it, another red panda – isn’t turned into a multi-stage boss ba꧑ttle.

Atlantis: The Lost Empire

Atlantis: The Lost Empire sunk without a trace on its 2001 release.🧸 The animated effort, starring Michael J. Fox, saw Milo Thatch join an expedition to find Atlantis. Its beautifully realized world absolutely deserves to be resurfaced in the next instalment of Kingdom Hearts.

Atlantis also offers a way for the series to hit the reset button. It’s been a little tiring revisiting Olympus and Agrabah across two decades. Kingdom Hearts finally has the chance to rea🌜lly freshen its roster up with this ancient destination – and potentially revive interest in a forgotten classic in the process.

Marvel

Be🅷cause only Kingdom Hearts could give us the faintest possibility of Goofy meeting Galactus and Donald quacking at Deadpoo💞l.

In truth, a Marvel/Kingdom Hearts crossover has enough potential for an entire game franchise, in much the same way the original series sprinkled in some Final Fantasy fan service. Yet, there’s plenty of ꦜscope for just one world – think a SHIELD Helicarri𒆙er, Doctor Doom’s Latveria, or the Baxter Building – to prop up a few hours of concentrated superhero action here. The likes of Spider-Man, Wolverine, and Captain America would be perfect foils for Sora, imparting lessons of leadership and how to get over losing a loved one.

Disneyland

Why hasn’t Sora visited The Happiest Place on Earth yet? Its many, many iconic attractions are ripe for the picking from💧 a gameplay pers🌟pective, with each having enough potential for separate levels and areas in a world.

Imagine Sora taking a trip up Space Mountain or being dwarfed in It’s a Small World. Plus, it would provide ample opportunities for Nomura and company to break the fourth wall and explain exactly why there are giant ma♔scots of Mickey, Donald, and Goofy runn𓂃ing around the park. How’s that for Disney magic? 

Love yourself some Disney? Check out every new Disney movie coming out between now and 2023. 

During the Q&A session at the Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary celebration event - where 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 was originally announced - series director Tetsuya Nomura said more information about the game is due "at a very later date." This quote comes directly from fans who attended the🗹 in-person event in Tokyo over the weekend and was shar💖ed by Kingdom Hearts fan-site . 

According to fans, Nomura said we won’t get any more news about Kingdom Hearts 4 until "way after E3’s period." Of course, as we all know E3 2022 has been completely canceled this year but what Nomura probably means is that we won’t hear anything until well after when E3 is usually held in early summer. Nomura also reportedly said that the reason why Square Enix decided to debut Kingdom Hearts 4 during its "early development" stage was apparently ༒due to wantiܫng to "avoid it being leaked early." 

The Q&A event also revealed a number of other interesting things about the upcom🐓ing Kingdom Hearts sequel including that all of the footage in the Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer is rendered in real-time by the game engine, Unreal Engine 4. However, KH4 will actually be developed using the new Unreal Engine 5, so it’s🀅 going to end up looking even more impressive than it already does. 

Nomura also revealed that a new world is currently in development - with many theorizing that 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:it could be a Star Wars-themed world - and that the narration in both trailers (Kingdom Hearts: Missi🌼ng Link and KH4) was recorded by "a character you have known for a long time."

As the voice-over has only been recorded in Japanese for now, it’s hard for Western players to recognize who it is. As mentioned in the KH13 article though, some fans are suggesting that it could be Young Xehanort. Without official confir♏mation yet though, we will just have to wait and see.

Do you feel out of the loop on all things Kingdom Hearts 4? Well, it turns out Goofy's English voice actor didn't even know the game was in development until a fan told them weeks after the announcement. 

Unfortunately, as should be expected with the Kingdom Hearts series, there isn’t a straightforward answer. If you’ve played the mobile game, Kingdom Hearts: Union X, however, Strelitzia (pronounced like "struh-lit-see-uh") should be a household name to you, but for those coming in fresh to 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 you may want to keep reading on.

Spoiler warning: The rest of this story will delve into the events of the Dark Seeker Saga in the Kingdom Hearts series, meaning if you haven’t played all of the games yet but still want to, we suggest you come back and read this later. 

To understand who Strelitzia is, you first have to understand the mobile game Kingdom Hearts Union X (also known as Kingdom Heart💦s X, Kingdom Hearts Unchained X or Kingdom Hearts: Dark 🃏Road - just to make everything even more confusing.) In Union X players are sent to Daybreak Town - which is set prior to the events of the mainline series (Sora, Donald, and Goofy’s story) - and find out the series' main antagonist Xehanort’s origin story and how he turned to darkness. 

To put it as plainly as possible, Strelitzia is a keyblade wielder from this time and her story takes place years before Sora picks up a keyblade and teams up with Donald and Goofy. As mentioned above, Strelitzia was introduced in Kingdom Hearts: Union X and unfortunately - spoiler warning - also meets her end during the mobile game🌃 too. Which is why it’s such a surprise that she’s popped up in the Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer, considering she and Sora haven’t crossed paths mu🍷ch before and she is supposedly dead. 

Nothing should come as a surprise to Kingdom Hearts fans anymore though, as series creator Tetsuya Nomura has a reputation for making the lore of the games extremely complex. That isn’t to say that Str🍒elitzia and Sora have no connection, however - as revealed in Kingdom Hearts Union X, Strelitzia is the younger sister of Lauriam aka Marluxia from Organisation XIII - if you’re familiar with the Kingdom Hearts villain - who Sora has had several run-ins with throughout the series. 

In Kingdom Hearts Union X, Strelitzia is portrayed as an original keyblad൲e wielder who was chosen by keyblade master Master Ava (who you may have seen in the Kingdom Hearts X Back Cover film on the Kingdom Hearts 2.8 compilation) to be a leader of the faction called the Dandelions - a group of wielders who represent each of the five Unions (a team players choose at the start of the game.) 

Way too much happens in Kingdom Hearts Union X for us to go into fully. After all, it did originally release back in 2013, but essentially what꧟ you need to know is that Strelitzia - along with four other keyblade wielders - were tasked with collecting light (aka Lux) and were eventually forced to move onto "another world" in order to avoid the light expiring during the Keyblade War as told in the Book of Prophecies. 

Unfortunately, Strelitzia doesn’t make it to the other world as she is killed by who we later find out is Ventus (who has his own stuff going on in Kingdom💞 Hearts: Birth By Sleep) but she makes sure to visit her aforementioned brother Lauriam before mysteriously passing on. It is however unclear if this means she is actually dead or has perhaps gone on to more sinister♛ things following a brief scene in Kingdom Hearts Union X where she wears a white cloak that covers her face before she disappears. 

There’s no way of knowing how Strelitzia plays into Kingdom Hearts 4 at the moment, but as we discovere💧d via the trailer, Sora and Strelitzia are both located in Quadratum which the ex-Dandelion calls "an afterworld." so it’s possible that she and Sora are currently residing in some kind of afterlife following 🐎the events of Kingdom Hearts 3. 

Feel out of the loop on all things Kingdom Hearts? Don't worry too much as even Goofy's English voice actor was surprised to hear that Kingdom Hearts 4 had been announced. 

Almost unrecognisable from his previous appearances, Sora has taken on a new form for 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4. Of course, we are still currently in the early days of development and so it may all be subject to change, but fans are already preparing to say goodbye to 🔜some of Sora’s identifyingཧ features. 

Despite being an ongoing joke within the Kingdom Hearts community, it looks like Sora will no longe😼r wear shoes that are several sizes too big for him in Kingdom Hearts 4. As spotted in the trailer, Sora now sports more normal looking and stylish sh🎐oes that compliment the rest of his outfit in Quadratum (the upcoming game’s setting). Pretty much a staple of all of Sora’s outfits in each of the Kingdom Hearts games before it, the clown shoes will be sorely missed by many players - as evidenced below. 

Another key part of Sora’s outfit currently missing in Kingdom Hearts 4 is his gloves. Every single iteration of Sora has seen the protagonist wearing some kind of hand accessory, from the smaller, more subtle gloves in Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 to the longer, more noticeable arm warmers he wears in Kingdom Hearts 3. Although the gloves were a minor part of Sora’s outfit that probably went unnoticed by many people, this transition from Sora’s cartoony clothes to a much moไre realistic style sort of feels like the end of an era, as

Finally, and perhaps most obviously, it looks like Sora has stopped using as much hair gel as in previous installments of the series as his hair falls slightly flatter than it did in both Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts 2. One Reddit user has theorized that this could be due to a ,  but it's more likely that Sora’s hair has lost some of its volume due to him now residing in Quadratum therefore having a more realistic look anyway. But knowing series creator Tetsuyꩵa Nomura, there’s probably so much more going on than we realize right now. 

In other Kingdom Hearts news, it turns out Goofy's English voice actor didn't even know Kingdom Hearts 4 had been announced until a fan told them weeks after the reveal. 

Yesterday on April 10, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Square Enix announced Kingdo🔴m Hearts 4, the latest in the long-running action-packed series, with a flashy reveal 𒉰trailer. Although a brand new look and combat system for the sequel was unveiled, Square Enix has now confirmed that Kingdom Hearts 4 is in "early development," via a press release.

This might come as something of a surprise to fans, since we saw Sora with a brand new look in the trailer for Kingdom Hearts 4, as well as story beats and new combat abilities. Taking this new information into account however, it's entirely possible that Kingdom Hearts 4 might lo🍌ok very different when it eventually releases, and might not even feature the same combat system as the reveal trailer. Don't take the trailer to guarantee any features of the final game, in other words.

What we can say for certain about the sequel is that it's being made using Unreal Engine 5. Reporting from around the 20th anniversary celebrations for the Kingdo🏅m Hearts series confirms that Square Enix is switching to the snazzy new-gen engine for Kingdom Hearts 4, so we can expect the new game to look a lot more advanced than Kingdom Hearts 3, for example🐻.

Elsewhere, some fans have apparently found Sora's apartment, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历𒊎史查询:and it costs a staggering $1.2 million to buy. The new reveal trailer showed Sora and company trotting arou🍷nd a cityscape, with our lead kicking back in a swanky high rise. Fans have been able to deduce roughly where this in real world Tokyo, and it goes for an enormous sum, so we're really not sure how Sora's affording the new digs.

Check out our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games 2022 guiꦰde for a complete look over all ♊the games confirmed for this year.

Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy fan on Twitter believes that they may have found the apartment Sora is staying in in the Kingdom Hearts 4🌺 trailer in r𒁃eal life. According to Audrey, it looks like Sora is living in the residential area of Aoyama in Tokyo - A.K.A. one of the most expensive residential areas in Tokyo. 

Taking to Google Maps, Audrey susses out that Sora’s apartment must be located near Shibuya Stream and Aoyama Gakuin park. They also think that it’s located on one of the block’s top floors due to the scene in the trailer where we see Sora and Strelitzia walk out onto the apartment’s balcony. According to Audrey, the bloc🐼k that they believe Sora’s is based on costs 245,000yen a month ($1,954USD) or can be bought outright for $1.2 million. 

Considering Sora hasn’t had a stable job since leaving Destiny Islands 20 years ago, we imagine he must have been saving every single piece of Munny he’s collected over the years. Plus, as revealed in the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer, Sora has actually only been staying there for seven days by the time Strelitzia shows up, so technically he will only be required ♏to pay a week’s worth of rent which is at least a little bit more affordable. 

Another recent discovery made by the Kingdom Hearts community since the announcement of Kingdom Hearts 4 is that a Star Wars world could very well make an appearance in the sequel. Still speculation at this point, but multiple fans have spotted what looks to be the foot of an AS-ST from Star Wars ✃very briefly in the sequel’s reveal trailer. Not only this but it looks like the trailer may even contain footage of a world based on the Star War🌱s planet Endor, but this is still very much a theory at this early stage. 

Looking for something else to play while we wait for Kingdom Hearts 4? Take a look at our list of the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:best JRPG games for inspiration. 

Announced via the Kingdom Hearts 20th anniversary celebration event yesterday, Kingdom Hearts 4 is officially in development and fans are already theorising about what worlds will make it into the next instalment of the Disney x Final Fantasy crossover game🧸. 

As shared by multiple people on Twitter though, we may have gotten our first glimpse of one as early as the first trailer. Towards the start of the Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer (ignoring the first two mobile game trailers shared in the 7 minute video) we see what looks like a lush forest location which many fans have claimed could potentially bܫe the planet of Endor from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

To add more fuel to the fire, some fans have spotted what looks like it could possibly be , the two-legged All Terrain Scout Transports that are central to the battle of Endor. This Galactic Empire t෴ransport vehicle appears in a number of Star Wars properties from the films to games and TV shows, so it makes sense as to why one would be featured in a potential Star Wars world - if Kingdom Hearts 4 was to have one.

It’s been long theorized (even before the release of 2019’s Kingdom Hearts 3) that th𝓰e now Disney owned IPs Star Wars (LucasFilm) and Marvel could make an appearance in the Square Enix RPG due to the game previously featuring worlds based on Disney’s other properties from Disney Princess films, Pirates of the Caribbean, and - later, in Kingdom Hearts 3 - Pixar 🔥worlds such as Toy Story and Monsters Inc. 

Another theory is that Sora and co’s drastic new look in the Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer could be due to S📖quare Enix wanting to incorporate more live-action films into the gam♈e rather than sticking solely to animated films, which is what Sora’s previous design matched up to. However, long-time fans of the games will already be aware that Captain Jack Sparrow and the rest of his crew have been making an appearance as early as Kingdom Hearts 2 back in 2005 - so Sora’s new look probably doesn’t have much to do with it. 

Kingdom Hღearts 4 is still 𓆉in "early development" meaning that the worlds we saw in the trailer may look completely different or be cut completely by the time the game is officially released.

To find out what other games you can look forward to, take a look at our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:new games 2022 list. 

From Play Arts Kai, the figures of Sora, Riku, and Kairi come in two variations, one standard, and one deluxe.

"In addition to the brushed-up modeling, [S൲ora] fe✤atures the metallic crown motif necklace, which is eye catching," Square Enix says on its Sora listing. "The face parts are vividly colored and have detailed expressions. Includes alternate hand parts and Sora’s iconic “Kingdom Key” Keyblade.

Did you know 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 4 was officially announced at an event celebrating the series' 20th anꦓniversary? Initially premiered to the attendees of the Kingdom Hearts 20th-anniversary celebration event in Japan, Square Enix has now publicly released the first Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer. 

As Hope reported earlier today, the trailer has a darker and m𓂃ore ser💛ious tone than previous installments in the series. In a press release confirming the news, Square Enix said: "Fans will be excited to see the return of Sora’s well-known companions Donald and Goofy, in addition to the first appearance of Strelitzia, a mysterious new character who appears before Sora in this strange new setting."

Read up on our澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询: new games 2022 guide for a complete look over all the other games launching over the next few months.

Initially premiered to the attendees of the Kingdom Hearts 20th anniversary celebration event in Japan, Square Enix has now publicly released the first Kingdom Hearts 4 tಌrailer. 

In the seven minute long video, fans outside of the event can see what was shown during the presentation includin🧜g news on Kingdom Hearts: Dark Road, a new mobile game, and our first look at Kingdom Hearts 4. 

Watch the first Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer below, starting🍨 at the four minute mark.

The trailer has a darker and more serious tone than previous instalments in the series. In the footage you can see a much older Sora teaming up witꦬh Strelitzia from Kingdom Hearts Union X, fighting in a boss bat♈tle against a giant enemy across a location Square Enix is calling Quadratum – a "expansive city set in a gorgeous, realistic world unlike anything ever seen before in the Kingdom Hearts series."

From this first Kingdom Hearts 4 footage, it would appear that the series is taking a big leap forward over 2019's Kingdom Hearts🌳 3, with Square Enix pushing for a more photo-realistic visual aesthetic versus the more stylised look we're used to from previous games. The publisher has confirmed that Kingdom Hearts 4 is the start of an "epic new storyline" which is entitled the 'Lost Master Arc'. 

Don't worry though, it looks like Donald and Goofy are still tagging along for﷽ the adventure as they do make a brief appearance towards the end of the Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer, where they seem to be looking for someone before getting spooked by somebody off camera. 

In 𒊎a press re𝄹lease confirming the news, Square Enix adds: "Fans will be excited to see the return of Sora’s well-known companions Donald and Goofy, in addition to the first appearance of Strelitzia, a mysterious new character who appears before Sora in this strange new setting."

The rest of the video from the 20th anniversary event announced that the mobile game Kingdom Hearts: Dark Road has been delayed until August 2022. Not only this but we also got our first glimpse at a br😼and new mobile game called Kingdom Hearts – Missing Link which will apparently receive a closed beta test later this year. 

Unfortunately, we don’t have 🎐a release date for Kingdom Hearts🥃 4 just yet. However Nana Gadd, director of Walt Disney Games, says more information will be coming in the future: "This glimpse into Sora’s next adventure is just the beginning – we can't wait to show more when the time is right."

For 20 years now, the long-running RPG series has so🌜 effortlessly blurred the lines between the worlds of Disney and Final Fantasy, often in ways that shouldn't work but absolutely do. And while so many of you are reminiscing about Sora, Donald, and Goofy's earliest adventures together, there's something about Kingdom Hearts 3 that makes me feel overwhelmingly sentimental. 

Perhaps it's because I first experienced Kingdom Hearts when I was six years old. While I'm surprised by how much of an impact the series is still having on me, 20 years down the line, it's the release of Kingdom Hearts 3 that really resonates with me today. I know now that the thing that has kept me coming back to Kingdom Hearts time and time again isn't the complex story, the goofy (pardon the pun) setup, the loveable characters, or the kinetic combat – it is the memories I associate with each of the gam꧑es. 

I don't know about you, but I find it difficult to rewatch any of the opening or closing cinematics without feeling overwhelming emotional. That's why I will often turn to the series whenever I need a pick me up, or want to get nostalgic for years gone by. And it's why I'm back playing Kingdom Heartsꦅ 3, and reminiscing about the excitement it generated along its road to release.  

Watching the years go by

So I booted up a new Kingdom Hearts 3 save. I watched as dark clouds swept across the screen, followed by the Disney and Square Enix logos, and that same feeling of excitement quickly washed over me once a🅘gain. It might have been three years since the release💫 of Kingdom Hearts 3 but that opening cutscene, soundtracked by Hikaru Utada and Skrillex’s iconic song 'Face My Fears', has lost none of its power over me.

The opening cinematics are always among the most memorable parts of any Kingdom Hearts game for me. It's during these sequences that we get a glimpse into the adventure we are about to embark on, and receive flashes of memories from previous instalments of the series. After so much anticipation and waiting (Square Enix has a tendency to leave a bit of a gap between the mainline games) it's no surprise that they're an element🌳 of the experience we can 💫get the most sentimental about. 

The opening cinematics found in the three mainline games are almost indistinguishable – but why mess with a good thing? Each cutscene consists of a voiceover from 🃏Sora at the outset, fast-paced transitions between familiar characters, settings, and iconic moments in the games, and an original song by Japanese pop star Hikaru Utada. Whether you're in for your first adventure or coming back again for more, there's a charm to the presentation that's difficult to ignore. 

Although very similar in appearance, there is something unique about Kingdom Hearts 3's opening cutscene that makes it stand out amongst all the others. If you weren’t aware, the Kingdom Hearts series starts with Sora, Kairi, and Riku in the first game but we also get to meet other important characters in the sequels and spin-offs along the way. All of these individual stori🥀es told throughout the games lead up to the events of Kingdom Hearts 3 – hence why it was such a big deal for fans who had been waiting 17 years to find out how the Dark Seeker saga would come to an end. 

As the song builds and we are reintroduced to characters and locations we haven’t seen in a while – for example the Wayfinder Trio, Destiny Islands, Roxas, and more – it’s hard not to get soppy thinking about how far the series has come and how much I’ve grown since first encountering them. The only thing 💜I can compare it to is like the first day back at school after the summer break. You’re excited to see your friends again and, despite them looking different from when you last saw them (whether it’s due to a new game engine or growth spurt), you just ca💞n’t wait to pick up where you left off. 

A far off memory

While Kingdom Hearts has always been a big part of my life, the release of Kingdom Hearts 3 was the first game in the series I was really present for. Given the 14 year gap between Kingdom Hearts 2 and its direct sequel, plus the fact a lot of the spin-off titles flew under the radar, this probably doesn’t come as much of a surprise. This meant that I was able to relish in the excitem🎀ent of following the game from reveal to release, for the very first time. 

Originally announced as in development back in 2013, we had to wait a longꩵ five years until Kingdom Hearts 3 was actually playable. Almost immediately after its reveal, it seemed like fans of the Final Fantasy x Disney crossover game were coming out of the woodwork; people I didn’t even know had played a Kingdom Hearts game were now eager to talk to me about the sequel, which came as a bit of a shock after spending so many years not really knowing anyone𓂃 who had played them.

That's a part of what makes Kingdom Hearts 3 so special to me. There was this sense of camaraderie and community around the game that I fear will be difficult to replicate. I have all of these fond memories associated with that time, be it freaking out with strangers on social media over the release of any new bit of information or the countless hours spent online theorising about what would happen to Sora in the upcoming adventure. And that exc🐈itement spilled over into real life too, be it attending the Kingdom Hearts orchestra to meet up with other fans in the flesh or the time I spent planning to get a Keyblade tattoo with one of my new friends once we had finally played the sequel. I look back on that period as if it were some kind of life-changing event, and I know I'm not alone in that.  

Thankfully, Kingdom Hearts 3 didn't fail to deliver by the time it did eventually release. O🔯nce I had gotten through the first few cutscenes, and fought Titans on Mount Olympus, it was time to revisit Twilight Town. This hub world has always felt like a second virtual home for me. The terracotta coloured buildings and cobblestone paths had been upgraded from its first appearance in Kingdom Hearts 2 and, 🎃while not every monument made the final cut (I’m still mourning the clock tower), it still gave me the same feeling that I felt when hopping in the gummi ship and flying towards it for the very first time.

Twilight Town is such a pivotal place in Kingdom Hearts 2, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, and now Kingdom Hearts 3 so it makes sense for it to hold a significant place in my heart. Upon first experiencing it in Kingdom Hearts 3, I remember taking Sora around to all my usual favourite spots and exploring the new attractions Square Enix had added in the sequel. I also fo🐽und myself reminiscing about my old adventures in the world – as if I actually was Sora or Roxas and really did spend my summer vacation looking for the Seven Wonders of Twilight Town.

All of these memories are why replayiꩲng Kingdom Hearts 3 now, three ye𒉰ars on, is still an emotional experience. Yeah, I also have great memories of the other games in the series but I can’t help but reminisce in particular about everything that happened both inside and out of Kingdom Hearts 3.  The friends I made, the fan-events I attended, the online discussions I got into each time a new trailer was released. All of this is for me to simply say; Happy 20th anniversary Kingdom Hearts, thanks for all the memories.

澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts at 20: Learn how a Mickey Mouse RPG pitch spiraled wildly out of control as director Tetsuya Nomura charts the making of Square's iconic RPG.

To help you decide, we have ranked the 14 best keyblades in 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3. It's worth noting that we have focused on the weapons available to Sora inꦉ the base-game, so we aren't getting into the Kingdom Hearts 3 DLC keyblades here. However, there are plenty of great options available to you here, so keep reading to find our ranking of the Kingdom He🌱arts 3 keyblades that everyone can find and equip today.

14. Kingdom Key

This is the keyblade you start with at the beginning of the game so as expected, it's not 𒁃great. It has just 4 Strength and 3 Magic, and the only ability is Treasure Magnet which pulls any treasures on the floor toward you. Upgrade this as soon as you ⛦can.

13. Hero's Origin

Impressively, Hero's Origin is even worse than Hunny Spout. With just 5 Strength and 2 Magic, you're going to want to get rid of this keyblade as soon as you get a chance. The formchange turns it into a shield, which isn't useful whatsoever if you're an offensive player, while the Defe༒nder ability just increases your defence when you're already at low health.

12. Shooting Star

You get the Shooting Star for completing Twilight Town near the start of the game, but unfortunately this keyblade is quite 𝕴useless until you learn much more powerful spells. It starts with a Strength of ⛎3 and Magic of 5, and while it's powerful late game if you upgrade it completely, it's often not worth it. It also falls short with the formchanges, as they're both ranged weapons like the Hunny Spout.

11. Hunny Spout

Unfortunately, the Hunny Spout really isn't great. As you may have guessed, you unlock it by completing 100 Acre Wood. It's balanced with 6 Strength and 5 Magic but the Harvester ability only gives you an extra cooking ingredient every time you harvest. That's pretty much useless if you've been following our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3 ingredients guide. The ဣtwo formchanges - Hunny Blasters and Hunny Launcher - turn i♓t into a ranged weapon which is much too slow for the fast paced combat of Kingdom Hearts 3.

10. Starlight

Starlight is one of the last keyblades you receive, but when it comes ꧙to stats it's absolutely rubbish. It has just 4 Strength and 4 Magic, and the only ability is MP Haste which allows Sora to cast spells faster. The Second Form S formchange turns Sora into a previous form of himself from Kingdom Hearts 2; great for fans of the older games seeking some nostalgia, not so practical in tough fights.

9. Crystal Snow

The Crystal Snow is the one you get for completing Arendelle, and it's the last somewhat decent keyblade on offer. It has 4 Strength and 7 Magic, and prot🌳ects Sora from any Freeze effects. The Blizzard Claw formchange turns it into two icy talons, which is great when fighting multiple enemies because you can chain attacks between them. The Blizzard Blade is similar, but it has a wider arc so it can hit even more enemies.

8. Happy Gear

Beat Monstropolis to get the Happy Gear keyblade. It's another keyblade that focuses on Strength, with 7 Strength to begin with. The Assault Claw formchange turns the keyblade into a huge gear which can deal damage to enemies far away from you, while Twin Yo-Yo has a wide attack range so enemies won't be able to get near you. The only downside is that the Focus Converter ability doesn't hel🦋p you in combat - instead, it converts all Focus prizes into large Focus prizes.

7. Grand Chef

You probably won't obtain Grand Chef until near the end of the game, because it's a reward for cooking every single recipe in the Little Bistro in Twilight Town. You'll need to find all of the ingredients for that, and when you do, you'll be rewarded with the Grand Chef. It's not a great keyblade with just 5 Strength and 7 Magic, but it is incredibly fun to use. The Fryinꦇg Pan formchange literally turns the weapon into a huge frying pan, so you can turn up the heat as you serve up some tasty Heartless.

6. Nano Gear

Nano Gear is a much more balanced keyblade that you receive when you've completed San Fransokyo. Nano Arms is an awesome ability that can target one enemy multiple times, ꧙so it's great for boss fights or enemies with a lot of health. Stun Protection also does exactly that; it prevents you from being stunned.

5. Wheel of Fate

For another Strength option, after you complete The Caribbean you can try out Wheel of Fate. Since you earꦦn it much later in the game, it begins with 8 Strength and 5 Magic. The Highwind formchange turns it into a vicious spear, while the Storm Flag one is similar but looks 💃like a flag. On top of that, you have permanent access to the Waterza spell.

4. Ever After

If you do prefer Magic, when you complete the Kingdom of Corona world you'll receive the Ever After keyblade. It's like the counterpart to Favorite Deputy; 7 Magic and a Mirage Staff formchange, along with ꩵLeaf Bracer which means that whenever Sora uses Cure or any of the more powerful versions, he can't be interrupted.

3. Favorite Deputy

After using the Favorite Deputy for the majority of our playthrough, it's easily one of the very best. From the get go it offers 7 Strength which makes it great for anyone who isn't too invested in Magic. You earn it for completing Toy Box and the Hyper Hammer/Drill Punch formchanges can deal some serious area-of-effect damage. Lucky Strike also increases the drop rate of rare items, which is key if you're grinding in the late game for the Ultima Weaponꩵ.

2. Classic Tone

Classic Tone is a hidden keyblade that you don't unlock through the main story; you need to collect and play all 23 澳洲幸运ꦍ5开ꩵ奖号码历史查询:Kingdom Hearts 3 Classic Kingdom games. When you do get it, it has a Strength of 11 and Magic of 14, which means it's a better keyblade for a mage than the Ultima Weapon. MP H🐓aste means you'll be constantly replenishing your Magic, though the Boom Hammer and Clock Drill formchanges both🥂 focus on melee attacks. 

1. The Best Kingdom Hearts 3 Keyblade - Ultima Keyblade

This is kind of cheating, but the best keyblade in Kingdom Hearts 3 without a shadow of a doubt is the Ultima Keyblade. The only caveat if you want to know 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:how to gꦐet the Kingdom Hearts 3 Ultima Weapon is that you don't unlock this keyblade until the end of the game and even then, you need to find some rare materials to synthesise it. It has 13 Strength and 13 Magic, making it the best keyblaꦑde for both stats. It also formchanges into the Ultimate Form which is seriously cool.

Of course, every keyblade in Kingdom Hearts 3 is powerful when in the right hands, so find the one that suits yᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚour playstyle and roll with it. Don't forget that you can also have three keyblades equipped 💮at any one time, so you can switch through them in the heat of battle.
