Posted June 8, 20169 yr Does this give anyone hope that Kingdom Hearts 3 could get a worldwide release as well?
June 8, 20169 yr I would assume so. I think they're doing this to test how well a worldwide release date could work with the fans of the series and if this goes well, they'll do it for kh3 definitely
June 8, 20169 yr I'm pretty sure this guarantees it... I would be shocked if it didn't. Most Square Enix games are getting worldwide (or close) releases these days.
June 8, 20169 yr It makes sense to give KH 2.8 a worldwide release date because the only new things are a movie and the short Aqua gameplay, so SE fears that they would watch it online instead of buying it.
June 8, 20169 yr I dont think 2.8 getting a worldwide release date assures anything by itself. However, The fact that 2.8 and FFXV are both WW pretty much guarantees a WW release date for KH3 in my opinion
June 8, 20169 yr It's certainly a far more optimistic approach by SE that's for sure. I wouldn't say it almost guarantees a worldwide release date for KH3, but given the hype and huge fanbase for the series outside of Japan then it'd be silly for SE to release KH3 a good bit ahead of other territories. Also encouraging signs include Kingdom Hearts III's large presence at E3 over the years and that the trailers have been dubbed in English. We also have seen closer release dates for upcoming titles like Final Fantasy XV and World of Final Fantasy. I can't see 2.8 or KH3 having same day release in all territories, but same general release window is definitely a reality.
June 8, 20169 yr Honestly as long as the game comes out, I truly don't care whether or not gets a worldwide release or not...I can wait...
June 8, 20169 yr Considering that KH3 already had voice work done for last E3's trailer and it wasn't until now that we heard any English voice work for 2.8, it would be pretty safe to assume that KH3 has been kept pretty close to the localization teams. Square Enix seems to be putting their bigger titles in the hands of localization teams faster (heck, World of Final Fantasy is releasing in NA before JP, which is absolute madness considering Square's localization history). I would say that we can expect any mainline FF & any KH game (excluding any future mobile/broswer games) to be worldwide releases from now on.
June 8, 20169 yr Is very possible but I have looked again through the history of the main games. The japanese should be then released end March and West September. I hope too end March worldwide or else July.
June 8, 20169 yr doubt it. KH3 is a much larger game than 2.8. I'd be surprised if there was a simultaneous worldwide release. but hey you never know, i guess.
June 8, 20169 yr I have high hopes that KH3 will have a worldwide release date, in spite of its size compared to 2.8. Besides, FFXV has a worldwide release date and that game is quite...well...colossal in comparison. It is the sensible option at this point. *Glares at Square* Isn't it?
June 9, 20169 yr The worldwide release revelation is a surprise. Anyone recognize the voices for the Back Cover part?
June 9, 20169 yr Honestly, I never dreamed that 2.8 would get a simultaneous worldwide release, but seeing as how that's gonna be the case, I think it's safe to say that Kingdom Hearts III might end up getting the same treatment as well! I really hope that this is the case, for that way, we won't be spoiled on Kingdom Hearts III, because we'll all have the game at the same time! Gahhh, I'm so hyped up, I really hope KHIII is a simultaneous worldwide release! I would assume so. I think they're doing this to test how well a worldwide release date could work with the fans of the series and if this goes well, they'll do it for kh3 definitely You know, that's actually a sensible way of thinking about it! Seeing as how popular KH is and how its continuing to rise further up into stardom, I think it's safe to say KHIII will definitely get a simultaneous worldwide release!
June 10, 20169 yr doubt it. KH3 is a much larger game than 2.8. I'd be surprised if there was a simultaneous worldwide release. but hey you never know, i guess. Well it would just take a lil extra too come out thats all. kh3 is the 7th most pre ordered video game right now. kh3 is WAY more wanted then 2.8 it would be complete Ludicrous just plan ridiculous. its a safe bet kh3 will be worldwide i bet my dieing Ps vita on it.
June 10, 20169 yr Since FFXV and 2.8 both get worldwide releases its safe to say KH3 will get one as well. With games this big square enix cannot afford to alienate a region for 6 months until localization is finished; those days are over Edited June 10, 20169 yr by sagman12PC
