I figure since MoM was being worked on a few years before 3 came out, and from what I know from my own digging, Nomura definitely had ideas floating around and was in talks before 2019.

Pre-development probably started after 3 came out- conceptions, pitches, all that, and work work on it probably started as soon as Remind was in a place to go gold. If I had to guess.

what criticism

The criticism that Aqua is essentially the only female character that matters

How long do they usually take to develop games KH3 aside

whiIe possibIe, l doubt it
in aII IikeIihood KH 4 entered the concept and aIpha stage in 2019 after KH 3 reIeased, but on a smaII scaIe since haIf the team was stiII working on updates and ReMind
once ReMind reIeased deveIopment started fuII fIedged, meaning it's been in proper fuII deveIopment for 2 years
the engine switch from UE 4 to UE 5 being announced now is how they've Iearnt from KH 3, doing it extremeIy soon

oooh

everyone who says this forgets (lol) abt my girl xion 😤

she ain't even that good she's just the Ieast bad

Now a days average development is about 5-6 years.

With next gen consoles trying to make it easier to program, we speculate it could be cut down to to about 4-5.

There are worse female characters then Kingdom Hearts lol

aqua is amazing wdym

Sqaure Enix was in a bad spot when KH3 started development along with FFVS13 that became FF15. Now that Square Enix is in a better spot, KH4 shouldnt take nearly as long as KH3 , it will probably be out in 2024 or something.

Nah dude. Aqua is good. She plays a major role in the plot, she goes through development, she's distinguishable by traits other than her appearance. One of my faves for a reason.

That’s good to hear. Hopefully they only need another 3 years

From kh3 and ff15 to kh4 and ff16

That’s what I always assumed because like all of their games were in development hell. Ever since both 15 and KH3 came out they seem to be speedier and more organized

I would say its gonna be late 2023 or early 2024
We dont even know what platforms it will relaese on

FF16 better come out within the next year. That shit was announced September 2020 and has been dead silent since

Current gen most likely

im thinking mid 2024 tbh. probably ps5

yeah, they are a lot better now. Square Enix back then was hell.

There's no way this is coming to last gen

I mean yea ue5 can work on last gen

hopefully we see more this E3.

I thought E3 was cancelled?

oops, not E3

my bad

some other event tho,
