No Disney property is off-limits for Kingdom Hearts III-- Yasue says Marvel and Star Wars are being considered

Posted

Tai Yasue, co-director of the Kingdom Hearts series has revealed in an interview with Kotaku that no Disney properties are off-limits for Kingdom Hearts III and has revealed Marvel and Star Wars are being considered for Kingdom Hearts III. You can read what Yasue said in full below.

“Yeah, I can’t go into specifics, but there’s a LOT of new Disney stuff and we have our plates full,” said Yasue. “Theres a lot to consider - we’re looking at all of Disney, the new ones as well, they have a lot of pull and draw.

 

“We have to come up with a world that has a lot of originality. We want variety in our new Kingdom Hearts, so we don’t want too many of one sort of world, that would look the same. For each world there has to be some meaning for it, in the plot; in Birth By Sleep, for instance, in the Cinderella scene, the characters learn something specific by relating to Cinderella. Also, gameplay-wise, is that world something that would make gameplay fun? There’s a lot I can’t say, but there’s so much to consider.”

 

When I asked whether I could safely infer that that Star Wars and Marvel are not off-limits, Yasue confirmed that they are being considered. “Well, yeah. They’re all under consideration,” he said. “Nothing’s off-limits, we’re considering all of the worlds. There are so many wonderful concepts. We’re happy about that, but at the same time it’s really tough to choose.”

I Suppose This Means EVERYTHING I Have Suggested As Possible Worlds For "Kingdom Hearts III" Could STILL Appear!!
This Even Includes The Movies Everyone Said They Would Rather NOT Have (i.e. "National Treasure (2004)" And "Pete's Dragon (1977)"!!

 

I Wonder What Disney Movie Shall Be Revealed First?  Hard-To-Say About Olympus Coliseum Based On That "Teaser/Hint-y" Trailer From Before.

 

 

P.S. -- Marvel & Star Wars Would NOT Work In Kingdom Hearts!!  They Are Too Violent And Scary For Younger Kids!!

I have read it and I can say that I agree with you. I just prefer KH to be without those two and I don't feel like it would fit. Yes, like you said, someone probably said the same for PotC, but for me personally, I don't really think it feels right.

Well regardless of what you or I think or feel about it, it all heavily depends on how the creators think and go about it. And who knows, if they go ahead with it, they may make it work so well that it may change your mind. It's not like you've seen this happen before. :P

Just because it's being considered and not confirmed, doesn't mean we shouldn't worry. Infact he is probably saying this so they can see how we react. So I guess now is the time to let our voices be heard.

 

Also, just because they added Pirates of the Caribbean it doesn't mean it actually fit. Most of the KH2 worlds were bland at best. The didn't really add anything to the overal story like the KH1 worlds did. Those one had the emotion to go along with them. The KH2 worlds felt like they were there to just be, there. Like if it was a trip down the memory lane for disney fans...

Easy there cowboy. Just because two properties are being CONSIDERED doesn't mean that every single movie you've suggested is automatically confirmed for KH3. As for those two examples in particular, I think it's really a matter of how popular they are as movies that get them to even be considered, and as a majority, you don't hear Kingdom Hearts fans talking about those two movies in particular all that much. And although I'm sure others wouldn't agree with me all that much on this, although I did say that nothing is really "unfitting" for the Kingdom Hearts franchise, there are still movies that are more fitting and less fitting than others, and I think by comparison Marvel and Star Wars are more fitting than National Treasure and Pete's Dragon. In my opinion anyway. :P

Who gives a crap about kids? 

 

That's your opinion. :P

Well, yeah, I know that. I don't think I'm forcing it on anyone.

People who complain and whine about Star Wars and Marvel being in KHIII really need to be quiet. They have NO idea the immense potential and possibilities of how awesome it would be.

They are haters, nothing more.

I don't think that's very fair...

Neither is hating on something before you even consider the possibilities...or regard its potential in the game. Usually I think people who are complaining about these two properties in the game, aren't Star Wars or Marvel fans. So they have no right to complain anyway

We who do not want Marvel or Star Wars in KH3 or above are fully aware what they have and their awesomeness. I know this your own opinion because you clearly want them to be in KH  xD, but we are not just 'haters'. We don't want them in because WE don't think they fit in and that they wouldn't make sense to be there.

But I didn't hate on it. I just don't think it would fit. Not in this Saga anyway...

 

I might not be fan of the comics but I love the MCU and can't wait for movies they just announced. Same goes for SW.

Really? You obviously have never watched Star Wars very much.

 

Concepts of good and evil/light and dark = Star Wars

FYI, I am a huge Marvel fan myself, not so much Star Wars. Therefore I have rights just as much as you to have an opinion and/or complain.

Not on Star Wars you sure don't if you know nothing about the source material.

Just because they have similar things doesn't mean they can fit, not always.

 

Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings both have magic and monsters in them. CROSSOVER CONFIRMED!!!!

Not on Star Wars you sure don't if you know nothing about the source material.

I know a lot about the main stuff of Star Wars such as light sabers, the force, light and darkness, I am just not a huge fan of it.

There is more to Star Wars than just those things you mentioned, so no....you really don't have any room to talk about it if you're not a fan....

I said 'such as', meaning examples of...

 

Yes, I agree there's more to SW than that.

Um, no they aren't, those movies are geared towards kids, and what would you know about what's too "violent and scary" for kids? Kids can handle almost anything you throw at them. If anything, most older animated Disney movies can get more scary and violent than Marvel and Star Wars. Have you even seen Sleepy Hollow?

Well, yeah, I know that. I don't think I'm forcing it on anyone.

I know, I'm just stating that I don't agree with it. :P

Personally, I don't see it happening.

Not even going to lie, I want everything that people don't want in KH3 for petty reasons to be in it, for my own petty reasons

I'm not really hung up on Star Wars being in KH, and even less so with Marvel, but acting like KH has some level of integrity that it has to maintain in terms of what things it uses... yeah okay

Like seriously guys

oh no

we can't have THAT series in KH

it doesn't make any sense!

it wouldn't fit!

it's not Disney-like enough

yes

KH really needs to work to maintain that pure Disney feel. Can you imagine if KH had characters who didn't really fit with typical Disney? Talk about a final fantasy!

Personally I see Star Wars fitting in quite well! Marvel? Not so much (unless they get the Final Fantasy treatment of sorts in the series, lacking their own world)

Star Wars would fit because of the whole "light and dark" aspect. But I doubt Stan Lee would have Marvel in Kingdom Hearts, nor would I want it anyway. It wouldn't fit IMO.

I still think it would be nice to see Han Solo and Cid Highwind knowing each other. Both as Gummi Ship salesman/workers. That interaction would be great!
