I've been thinking about this for quite some time now and i'm thinking Square should make their own Fighting Game series. Now you can argue Square has already done this with FF Disdida but i feel like that series with "only" FF characters may get old at some point. So I think what Square could do is make a fighting game series not just to FF but to Square Enix as a whole kinda like how Smash bros is dedicated to nintendo properties (until Brawl) to gather more people in the game. As a sort of imaginary wish list for playable characters for this so called "idea" i think it should be like this: 

Cloud: Tifa: Sephiroth: Squall: Tidus: Auron: Lightning: Noctis: 

Lara Croft: 

That guy from dues Ex:

Agent 47:

2B: 9S: A2: Kaine: 

A Dragon Quest character:

A character from Bravely Default:

Full Metal alchemist character:

Neku Sakuraba: Joshua: 

and of course Sora: Riku: Roxas/Ventus: Axel/Lea: Xigbar/Braig: Aqua: possibly King Mickey

 

I always thought this would be as sort of backup plan if Sora isn't able to get added into Super Smash Bros but that will be up to Square lol. But i noticed while looking for candidates for this Square fighting game that Square doesn't have very many Characters that would be really recognized in a game like this which is honestly kinda disappointing to me. (i had to look up some of these character ideas and some didn't stick out) so maybe Square could pull some kind of Marvel Vs CAPCOM like situation where they team up with another Publisher and call Square Vs DC comics or Square Vs Konami. Or just create this fighting game and slap Disdidia on the title while teaming up with another publisher. But either way I'd love for something like this to happen sometime in the future, anyone got any other ideas tho or do you disagree with this overall? Just curious.

Disney owns Kingdom Hearts, not Square Enix. So Sora and the rest won't be in it. Otherwise, it would probably be a good idea, as long as it's not another Smash clone. It would be doomed to fail.

Ditto what MythrilMagician said. Not a bad idea, but they already kind of have a fighting game: Dissidia Final Fantasy. I understand that's only for the Final Fantasy series, but I think Square sees that as their "fighting game".

They could make it like DFF and just call it Dissidia. Main difference is that it has more than just FF characters. So it would be the same gameplay with a bigger range of characters and stages. Shame they won't be able to include KH though.

It would be extremly funny however to see disney of all companies trying to compete with Street fighter and mortal kombat. Just Imagine KH donalds finishing move

If I was in Square Enix's shoes, I'd revive Psychic Force or Tobal. Outside of Dissidia, Square Enix doesn't have a dedicated original fighting game franchise.

This does seem like quite the intriguing idea! I think it would work, because look at MvC and Smash! In addition to having familiar faces, there are also obscure characters that have risen to fame thanks to these fighting game crossovers, ya know? So a massive Square fighting game that isn't Dissidia would be pretty cool! I bet it would be awesome seeing different characters from Square's different series clashing together!
