In a total surprising manner during the 20th anniversary of Kingdom Hearts, Square Enix announces active development of the next entry in the franchise. Something fans did not expect given the trilogy being seemingly concluded with the third entry.
Trailer here
The developers are also going for a fresh aesthetic with the franchise with its fourth mainline instalment as it appears, Sora our lead protagonist will be visiting realistic world locations. This is indeed a shock as Kingdom Hearts has always focused on a cartoonish theme and set levels within the worlds of animations from Disney for example.
Sora himself is even showcasing how the power of Unreal Engine 5 will be adapting the franchise into a more realistic feel moving forward. The trailer also showcases a powerful titan battle between our key blade wielding hero and the darkness he has faced in the past.
However do not be concerned, even if the franchise is moving in a fresh direction with a fancy new modern engine we will be seeing the return of fan favourites. Goofy and Donald Duck both appear in the brand new trailer announcement showing how Square Enix know why fans love Kingdom Hearts.
No details on platforms, release date or story details have been revealed as of yet but we are sure excited to see what amazing worlds are going to be discovered in future.
Sora having a battle with Star Wars villain Kylo Ren anyone?, Disney does own the rights so anything could happen.
