Demyx. 10,064 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) The newest issue of Famitsu features a new interview with Tetsuya Nomura, who makes a surprise announcement concerning the upcoming title Kingdom Hearts III. The translated interview can be read below, thanks to SQEX.INFO. Today we’re speaking with Kingdom Hearts series creator Tetsuya Nomura about Kingdom Hearts III and Final Fantasy XV, which will both be releasing for Playstation 4 and Xbox One. -First off, I’d like to ask about the progress of FF15. Will the progress of the title be slowed down at all by the departure of Yoshinori Kitase? Nomura: Thankfully, no. Kitase has been a great help up to this point in the project, but we will manage without him, and will still have a great product to show for it. Plus, he has some great plans for a new title, so please be excited for that. I know I’m excited for it. [laughs] -And concerning the other title that you’re currently directing, Kingdom Hearts III- I understand you have an announcement for us? Nomura: Yes, I do. We at Square Enix have seen a great deal of excitement for Kingdom Hearts III, and have also made note of the enthusiasm of the fans that hoped for a version of the game for the Wii U. Because of this, it is my greatest pleasure to announce that Kingdom Hearts III will be made available for the Wii U. As an added bonus, the Wii U version will include an exclusive HD remaster of Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, which will be developed by one of our smaller teams with Tai Yasue at the helm. -This truly is exciting news! However, I’d like to ask- will the Wii U version of Kingdom Hearts III compromise the quality of the game, due to the lower capabilities of the system? Nomura: Absolutely not. We are working hard to make the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game as high quality as possible, and we are also working to make the Wii U version as close to those versions as possible. There may be minor graphical differences, but those will be negligible. And we hope to make up for these with the inclusion of Kingdom Hearts 3D. -Will the development of Kingdom Hearts 3D HD interfere with the development of KHIII? Nomura: Not at all. We have one of our smaller teams working on remastering it, and this will have no effect on the development of Kingdom Hearts III. -This is all very exciting news. This has probably been a stressful time for you, though. Nomura: Well… yes. [laughs] But it’s been enjoyable as well, and working with the development teams is truly amazing. They work hard, and they are excited to show the world their handiwork. -I have no doubt that your work will not go unappreciated. Also, do you have any news concerning Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX? Nomura: What, that’s not enough news for one day? [laughs] We have made plans concerning when new information will be released, and I assure you it will be soon. Please look forward to it. -Trust me, we will. Before we finish, is there anything you’d like to say to the fans? Nomura: We fully intend on bringing the fans the highest quality titles possible over the next few years. I know the wait has been long, but the teams at Square are working hard to make sure that we have something amazing to show for it. Please look forward to that. http://kotaku.com/kh3-anounced-for-wiiu I can't believe they are actually gonna do it. I may just need to pick kh3 up on both ps4 and wii u now. It seems it was taken down for some reason. : But I did manage to go back on the browser and get a screenshot! http://i1273.photobucket.com/albums/y410/xaonschock/kh3wiiu_zpse06d85fc.png Edited March 21, 2014 by Squirting Demyx 5 Pangoro "Sen", Roxas Illini, bit and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Queen Tery 4,591 Posted March 21, 2014 If this is true, I may just need to get a Wii U and the Wii U version simply so I can have an HD remaster of 3D. That way I have all the games on home consoles. 1 King Riku reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the thing about it's specs, Wii U's specs are way lower then Xbox ONE and Playstation 4's ones. The resolution the game had in the trailers as we've seen them, that's too heavy for Wii U to handle, let's get serious, seriously. I post serious things all the time. This is 100% legit guys. seriously. I beg to differ. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It doesn't have to be identical fo PS4Xbox One,I don't mind watering down the graphics of the Wii U version as long as it looks good enough What matters to me is if the artcile is true or not If Watch Dogs can fit in the Wii U,which is a much bigger game than KH3 in scale,then why can't KH3? Watch Dogs have versions on all consoles so why can't KH3 But if this article turned out to be an April Fool joke,I'll learn hacking and I'll hack Kotaku's site Edited March 21, 2014 by Metal Snake 1 OmegaForte reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cuz those PC Master race guys can't stop saying them Heck Watch Dogs is even coming on Ps3Xbox 360 too Yes now I take back my words. Such system has WEAK as Wii U shouldn't even have a game as Watch Dogs, and the moment you told me that and that they confirmed it at E3 I got actually mindblowned there, that doesn't mean I'll change my opinion on the subject of Wii U being a weak gaming console, sure Nintendo's fanboys n'gals will surely buy all of those Monster Hunter and Mario recycled games that are being mixed to HD, but hell, if they can put in that Watch Dogs, why not Kingdom Hearts III. 1 143436611Xxcc reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
