Why is this game not coming for Xbox One?

Posted

First of all I'm new, I have been a while browsing this page and decided to make an account, but I have never commented or anything so I finally decided to start here.

 

I mean, KH3 is already coming for this platform.

 

I had a PS2 but moved on to Xbox360 thanks to Gears of War and now since I knew that KH3 is coming for Xbox I had no reason for buying a PS4

 

I hope Square actually releases Kh2.8 on Xbox that'll make me very happy. Don't get me wrong I love PS games but I just prefer to play the Xbox exclusives and also play beautiful games on Xbox like Metal Gear and The Witcher which are for both consoles and this means that Xbox is not only shooters as most people have stated on here.

 

Hope it really happens, `cause I'm one of those people who bought a 3ds for DDD and a PSP for BBS haha although the 3ds was a great investment, Smash Bros is pretty addicting.

 

Let me hear your opinions about this

Took the words right out of my mouth. :P

 

want to say it's because of the touchpad feature, but we don't even know if they're going to implement that into the game. We haven't even seen a HUD yet for DDDHD, so we can't say for sure what the mechanics will be like on consoles. I really can't say for sure why they wouldn't just do a multiplatform release considering we barely have any info on what the games will play out like.

I doubt they'll even make the touchpad do much. And even then 2.5 could have been on 360.

Well damm. I hope he declares that the game is coming for Xbox sooner or later. 

 

I agree with Sora96 this sucks for me hahaha  :(

Hopefully for the super duper collection for 1.5, 2.5 and 2.8 all together.

And if they still don't put it on the Xbox One (and maybe NX if they decide to port it there) then I have no idea what SE and Tetsuya is thinking.

Nomura isn't the brightest of people when managing and directing projects. :P

"I'M GONNA JOIN EVERY PROJECT. MAHAHAHAHA."

If he was still directing FFXV, the game would still be "Now In Development". :P

That is correct.

i think there was a interview where Nomura said he has no plans of bringing 1.5 & 2.5 to current gen

Yes, I posted that. Haha.

Because to summarize the words that came out of Nomura's mouth....

I think the biggest reason is the Xbox One Sales in Japan, since the Xbox One sells like shit in Japan it's just logical to not make it for XB1 since Japan is there main market, thats what i think and the only reason KH3 is coming to Xbox One (IMO) is that Microsoft gave them a lot of money otherwise i think that would also be PS4 exclusive

Edited by FlyingEggplant

KH3 would be delayed if it were. That's why it isn't.

Because they like pissing people off. lol

 

Seriously though it's probably a difficult process in general, with money, sales, development, time, etc.

Not trying to give them an excuse though. smh

The only reason KH3 was announced for both consoles was that SE didn't want to risk selling exclusively to the PS4 which could have been the less popular console. If the PS4 was the less popular console then they would have less sales, or at least it would be expected. However, by choosing both they could ensure that they can fall back on the console that will maximise their sales provided that one of the consoles is less popular, ala the Xbox One.

Also remember licensing guys. The original DDD never came out on a microsoft platform. No KH game has come out on a microsoft platform, how would TWEWY and FF characters that only originally appeared on Sony and Nintendo Platforms be allowed to come to a Microsoft platform? It would be a licensing nightmare and would have delayed 1.5 and 2.5 which would've delayed KH3 as well as 2.8. 

 

Nomura probably got permission for KH3 to be on Xbox One  since KH3 will rank in more money overall than 1.5 2.5 and 2.8. No way they'd miss out on an opportunity like that, since Xbox One has more games geared towards children than the PS4 does. Thus disney appeal of KH3 would rake in money on Xbox One since it has a much younger audience than the PS4. Disney infinity is on the xbox one and 360 and are quite popular so disney properties aren't a problem, but FF properties are a bit of a hassle.

That may be another reason, but the real answer (and he himself has said so in interviews) is anything else done to other titles not KH3 would delay KH3.

Because of DDD touch screen game play.

 

k?

I really don't know why 2.8 is not coming to XBox One.  The only Kingdom Hearts game that's actually coming to the system is Kingdom Hearts III.  But, if Nomura wants to draw in XBox fans, then he should make it a point to release the HD ReMixes and 2.8 for the XBox One sometime in the future, so that XBox gamers can be able to have the whole collection, ya know?

“When we first came up with the idea for Kingdom Hearts III, it was always 1.5, then 2.5 and we were always thinking about those three titles at the same time I think [putting the games on PS4] is something we’ll explore. We understand what our player’s want, so we will explore the possibility. I’m not making any announcements though, we can’t make any announcements yet,” explained Tai Yasue who was later on asked about whether or not the titles would see an Xbox One release. “It’s a big old question, there’s a lot of things we need to think of when we consider consoles. One of them is what our player’s want, so we will definitely consider that. But there’s also a schedule constraint, as we really don’t want the development of Kingdom Hearts III going later, so we have that to think about. We’ll consider all these things and come to a decision.”

I think the reason is just for true KH fans.

Besides the bullshit reasoning of controller mapping being the MAIN reason. In reality Xbox is not gonna be a popular platform of choice for this type of game. Type 0 HD sold like garbage on Xbox 1. Was not worth the resources, time, and money to port it to Xbox, at least currently. THIS IS NOT A PS4 EXCLUSIVE. So as KH3 does reach it final development and resources are freed up we could see a KH 2.9 collection of sort going to Xbox/PS4 right before it releases, but this is assumption of the fact Square has goodwill and wants to catch the players up on that platform to their main game.
