Square Enix officially announces Kingdom Hearts III


DChiuch

Today at 6PM PST, Sony held its E3 2013 press conference. Here, Sony showed off the PlayStation 4. Kingdom Hearts III was officially announced. Series director Tetsuya Nomura appeared via a video and showed a short, beta trailer for Kingdom Hearts III which is "now in development" for the PlayStation 4 (Update: and Xbox One). Details about release date are currently unknown.

This trailer can be seen below, on YouTube. Enjoy! Kingdom Hearts III is finally on the way!

The trailer starts by showing all of the previous Kingdom Hearts titles to date. Next, Sora is shown on Destiny Islands finding Master Eraqus' Keyblade. The Kingdom Hearts III game logo is shown. Lastly, Sora is shown in Twilight Town fighting a wave/storm of Shadow Heartless. Donald and Goofy are party members.

Here is the Kingdom Hearts III game logo:

Make sure to discuss the Kingdom Hearts III announcement in the comments or on our forum-- or, if you want to start a specific discussion about the game, use our new KH3 forum.

Update 1: IGN have uploaded a summary video for the Kingdom Hearts III announcement. In this, they reveal that "according to Tetsuya Nomura, the game began development in 2010, after the release of Birth by Sleep". This is interesting news, as it means development was started up to 3 years ago!

Update 2: mbdamiani and Nova_Crystallis from Twitter have shared photos of a Kingdom Hearts III poster at E3 2013. This poster is from Square Enix's private conference, "Square Enix: The Future", which is about to go underway. It is likely that this event could reveal more details about Kingdom Hearts III, so stay tuned. The poster can be seen below. We will update you on details from this conference live, here.

*just woke up* Am I still dreaming? Kingdom Hearts 3!? HOLY SH-- THREE!?!? But... it's okay, that they will release it on the PS4. But does the PS4 do play PS3 games or just the new PS4 ones? Well, if they DO it, then it would be better to buy just a PS4 and not a PS3 first and then a PS4... but 300 Dollars/225 Euro is totally okay! But I don't will buy to PS'es if the 4 can't play PS3 games...

something just looks off with the graphics style. I mean its just way too cartoony looking, it doesn't look like the CGI trailers which is how you would expect it to look. its kinda hard to explain

I'm so SUPER EXCITED! : DDD Really, I didn't even notice the trailer until my sister came and showed  it to me! At first I thought that I was dreaming or it was a joke (but today isn't April First, so it can't be...)

It still feels so unreal! Even though it probably takes a long time before it comes out, at least I know now that they're really making it!

OGM, I'm totally going  crazy now! : D

Shit, I'll have to but a PS4 then xD

 

But yeah this really made me happier. I'm with my exams now and this gave me the energy I needed xD

 

Also, I really like the graphics. I was a bit afraid of how KH would look in PS3/PS4, but I looks really good! It looks better but it still has that simple feeling.

I'm pretty sure the HUD isn't done yet...Sora, Donald, and Goofy's icons are from promotional KH2 stuff...and in every game their faces are hand drawn...I think they just recycled the KH2 HUD and made it look nicer for the sole sake of showing off a trailer to create hype. It's more likely that the HUD will look like it did in DDD with the command deck.

I am personally excited about KH3. My sister actually showed me the video last night. Me and my three sisters watched it. It was short....and I'm looking forward to a challenge with the game.

So, with the news of it having been in development for 3 years. What chance does it have of being a launch title for PS4?

Probably (and hopefully) very slim, i dont want them to rush this game for the sake of being a launch title, like all good things it needs to take its time (yes...even after 7 years) and make sure its the greatest Kingdom Hearts both graphically and story-wise :)
