DChiuch 5,773 Posted January 19, 2013 At Tokyo Game Show 2012, Square Enix announced Kingdom Hearts for PC Browsers, an upcoming social web browser game with a tentative title. Since then, some screenshots and information has been released, but we still know relatively little about the title. Today, we have discovered that Korean publication INews24 have published some information about the game. The game, which they refer to as "Kingdom Hearts online game", is being developed by a Korean studio known as "Studio EX", which was recently acquired by Disney. Series director Tetsuya Nomura mentioned in October that the game was being developed externally, so this checks out. The article also mentions that the title is expected to become multi-platform, and released on smartphones as well as on the web browser. We have obtained a direct translation of the relevant part of the article, thanks to kalnet from KH13, and this translation can be read below. A Kingdom Hearts online game is being developed. Studio EX is expecting it to become a multi-platform game, where you can enjoy the game on smartphone or on the web. The action is likely to be a game similar to the MORPG genre.

Shana09 5,769 Posted January 19, 2013 MORPG? So it's not gonna be that massive? Eh could've guessed since its probably gonna be a web browser and a smartphone app. If they make it pretty good then I'll probably play it, 1 dusk reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weedanort 8,786 Posted January 19, 2013 At least some news I was starting to think that they wouldn't say anything else. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SquareSora 133 Posted January 19, 2013 Well this is still good news. now i can play it anywhere i want too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ajexmi 446 Posted January 19, 2013 meh, cheers for the update but I think most of the community will agree the news is relatively small fry compared to news of international release of KH1.5 and KHIII news. Come on Nomura, get a move on! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indecypher 495 Posted January 19, 2013 I guess not all companies bought make as much of a ruckus as Marvel or LucasArts. 1 Ajexmi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dusk 910 Posted January 19, 2013 MORPG? So it's not gonna be that massive? Eh could've guessed since its probably gonna be a web browser and a smartphone app. If they make it pretty good then I'll probably play it, Yeah... MMORPG would have been so nice. Just think about it army of keyblade wielders fighting against gigantic heartless or keybladers having huge wars. But just some smartphone app/server browser. Sounds kinda meh. I'm gonna cry if I can't fully customize my own character. 1 Ajexmi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want something like that :< ohwell They'll probably make you partially customize your character, not totally. The face is probably gonna stay the same. Like this: http://kh13.com/zenphoto/cache/articles/famitsu-weekly/october-4-2012/a01_992.jpg Also the battle style is probably gonna be similar to Club Penguin Card Jitsu kind of style, not the CoM battle style where you still have cards but you are able to at least move. Club Penguin Card Jitsu style is like you stand there with no movement within battles, pick a card with a higher number and/or advantage (or nothing to do with advantages) and if you get the higher number you hit the person. Excluding the "3-ice-fire-water-stack win" thing they put. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Noobles 301 Posted January 19, 2013 MORPG genre. This is going to be interesting. I think it's going to be good since most MORPG online games are made from Korea and are popular international such as Maple Story and Grand Chase. I look forward to this. The smartphone option is going to be pretty cool. Playing KH no matter where I am B-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Noobles 301 Posted January 19, 2013 Your answer just answered my question lololololol. lol. I did not realize that. I just read the article. It said most likely MORPG. Plus that's a popular genre throughout Korea and Asia. Plus it's going to be mobile and PC. So I wouldn't be surprised. But give or take, there's little information so we have to wait like always. Playing the Patient game. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isamu Kuno 2,512 Posted January 21, 2013 If it's going to be on smartphones then I demand a KH for PC browsers PSVita app. The Vita basically is a smartphone only without the ability to actually call anyone. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
