That sounds good for me. I think this is a great idea. I am sure content creators and other people well versed in this kind of stuff will have a field day with this. I also find it really interesting to compare beta assets to release version assets to compare how much they have changed over time and stuff like that. I am sure this build will prove to be irreplaceable in the future!

Yes. We had to use an apk extractor program to get it.

The latest beta has now been preserved. A huge thank you for that individual who helped preserve gaming history. The build will be released some time after the official release of the game on various game preservation outlets and forums. However, as good as these news are, we are still missing the other builds. MISSING: -The closed beta test build for iOS devices that occurred on January 13-18, 2023. The prototype test was exclusive to Japan. -The second closed beta testing period for Japan, the United Kingdom, and Australia was ran for iOS devices on November 29, 2023 and was planned for Android devices in January 2024, but the Android testing was later delayed until Spring 2024 -The latest build from May 5, 2024 to May 10, 2024 for iOS FOUND: -The latest build from May 5, 2024 to May 10, 2024 for Android (.apk + obb folder preserved) Contact me if you want to help with the project.

Hello everyone. If someone still has this installed on their phone, i can walk you through on how to dump it if you do not know how to do it yourself. My objective is to preserve the game. It is evident that many elements of the game will undergo changes between the beta and release versions, and mobile games (or betas for that matter) are rarely preserved in any form. While I acknowledge that the game may not be playable or functional, my primary concern is to access the assets and other relevant information via datamining. I possess the AES key necessary for decryption, and I have most of the required tools to inspect the game and its assets. However, I lack the actual game dump to do this process. Bottom line for missing link is that the beta absolutely needs to be preserved in any way possible. it cannot fall into obscurity like most other mobile games have, its very rare for a mobile game to be fully preserved, much less a beta. but it would be so important! So again, if someone has the game still installed on their phones, i can walk you through it on how to dump it. Think about the possibilities too, someone could port missing link maps and stuff like that to KH3 too as mods.

Still looking for the game dump if someone still has the game installed.

Talking about the release, i still firmly believe they will hold at least one more beta and hopefully release the game shortly afterwards.

There is. I am trying to monitor all kinds of sites regarding kingdom hearts and missing link, and i should know as soon as they happen. I'll update the bsky thread as soon as something like that happens and i'll update here as well.

Happy sunday. https://bsky.app/profile/illty.bsky.social/post/3lboxniw5ps2d
