Kotaku have conducted an interview with Tai Yasue, the current co-director of the Kingdom Hearts series, who is currently at E3 2014 to promote Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX. In this interview, Yasue reveals some details about Kingdom Hearts III. Quotes from Yasue can be read below.
Yasue: That's the starting scene for Kingdom Hearts III, actually. [Co-director Tetsuya] Nomura has a real clear picture of the starting sequence. He wrote that up actually, the drawings, and we voice-recorded that. That's gonna be a real integral part of the story of Kingdom Hearts III. It's gonna be the starting point of Kingdom Hearts III.
Kotaku: Is there anything you can hint at or tease to fans who might be desperate for any information on Kingdom Hearts III?
Yasue: As a developer I'm really excited, the technology is totally different, and creatively it's moving at leaps and bounds.
Talking about the Kingdom Hearts III trailer at D23 Expo Japan:
Yasue: We'll have, I think, a lot of that. You could I guess imagine a theme park sort of ride-based action. I think that might be an important part of the game, and so I think people can really look forward to that. It will be moving in leaps and bounds, I think. It's very exciting.
An interesting quote from the article: "I told Yasue, who is bi-lingual and speaks both Japanese and English, that the first thing everyone thought when Disney bought Lucasfilm was that now Kingdom Hearts could have Star Wars. He laughed and said he couldn't comment."
Final words:
Yasue: Kingdom Hearts 2.5 is gorgeous, I think. But Kingdom Hearts III is pure magic.
