The Kingdom Hearts series has a chance to appear at two upcoming Sony-related events. The first is known as the “PlayStation Meeting”, and is occurring on September 7th at 3:00 pm ET at the PlayStation Theater in New York City. It is worth noting that Sony may also use this conference to unveil the next PlayStation 4 console, codenamed “Neo”, where Kingdom Hearts III could very well appear on the list of games for this new powerful console.

The second event is part of the annual Tokyo Game Show expo. Sony will be hosting their pre-TGS press conference on September 13th at 4:00 pm JST (3:00 am ET). Several games have made appearances at Sony's TGS-related conferences in the past, and the Kingdom Hearts series is no exception. Additionally, a trailer presence for Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue was recently announced for Square Enix's lineup at TGS, so this trailer could very well be present at this press conference. KH13 will be livestreaming this event on our YouTube channel, so be sure to tune in!

What do you hope to see at these events? Let us know in the comments below!

I would not expect anything from the Playstation meeting. This isn't going to be an E3 or PSX type of conference: this meeting is going to be almost all about new PS tech (Slim, Neo, possible new handheld, and PSVR) with few game announcements (most likely showing existing games running better on Neo and some launch announcements for the handheld). At most Square would only be present to show something developed for the handheld and/or to show how FFXV will improve on Neo. Plus with the confirmation that no news on KH3 till winter and that 2.8 is getting a new trailer at TGS, KH will have nothing to show.

most likely showing existing games running better on Neo...

I don't believe Sony has any plans of having existing games run significantly better on the Neo. Some games may incidentally have performance improvements (similar to how Smash 4 runs better on the New 3DS), but unless developers implement a dedicated "Neo Mode" as Sony is mandating for every new game after September 30th, existing games will likely not be able to fully utilize the new hardware. Chances are high that they will still be locked to the specific framerates, resolutions, and textures that they were initially designed to support.

At most Square would only be present to show something developed for the handheld and/or to show how FFXV will improve on Neo.

I am, however, very hopeful for this to be the case. Previously, FFXV fell right outside the window for Neo Mode to be a mandatory inclusion, so I was wary that we wouldn't see it come to pass. Now that it's delayed for another two months, though, it's far more likely that we will get something in that regard.
