Square Enix's Third Business Division are continuing to hire employees to help complete Kingdom Hearts III. Square Enix were looking for suitable candidates at the beginning of January and are needing further assistance yet again as we head into the new year. Business Division 3 includes a team that is responsible for the majority of the Kingdom Hearts titles, including Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 and 2.5 ReMIX, and the upcoming Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue and Kingdom Hearts III, while other teams within the division have worked on other projects. The eleven occupations listed below are the majority of the same jobs Square Enix advertised in January and have been open to apply for all year. The addition to this list is a 'scenario planner' role that is currently being advertised.

Isn't it obvious?

    The job description says "KH series," not Kingdom Hearts III. I'd venture to say that it may be for all sorts of games, including 2.8, Unchained, and chi. Or maybe, future entries...?

     

    My understanding is the web browser version is developed by BD11. The iOS/Android versions are BD3 though.

    Scenario planner means someone helping with the story, right? If so, I'm kind of excited about the prospect of that (if it's someone good, that is), because though KH has amazing, amazing ideas... Well, honestly, it's execution of said ideas falls short a lot of times.

     

    I'm really hoping that anyone helping to work on the story will: add some humor (the series kind of needs it), treat the female characters better, have things be less convoluted (I don't mind the complexity, but KH can be one big mess at times; I also feel like every loose end imaginable needs to somehow be wrapped up within this title), balance the Disney stuff more (i.e. have it be important to the overall plot again), have consistent characterization for the characters (looking at you, Sora), and make sure that we don't get info dumps all at the end of the game again (or worse: us having another KHII experience, where we mostly see SDG doing filler-ish stuff, and don't see some of the important stuff going on in the background). 

     

    I know my wish list here is ridiculously high here--and that I'll be lucky to see maybe one of those things getting addressed in KHIII--but I can dream^^ And this kind of does sound like a step in the right direction to me:)

    So if they are hiring these positions, just how far does this show they are in development? 40% or 30%  complete?
