We can expect "a few Disney worlds in there," but as far as these big differences go, it's my speculation that this game will jump between other properties like Star Wars. Nomura also suggests that Kingdom Hearts 4 "might feel slightly different from previous Kingdom Hearts titles," but also reassured players that it is definitely a "Kingdom Hearts" game. "He's that important to the series," says Nomura. When asked if Kingdom Hearts could evolve beyond Sora, Nomura claimed that "Sora is actually the only real candidate for the main character," going so far as to say that the entries would no longer be numbered if he wasn't present. GameInformer interviewed Tetsuya Nomura about Kingdom Hearts 4, offering plenty of exciting details to discuss.

After all, Kingdom Hearts 4 is shifting towards a far more realistic aesthetic, so perhaps it’s time to introduce Iron Man’s New York City and Thor’s Midgard. If Square Enix only implemented a couple of Marvel’s worlds per game, they’d have enough content to last them an eternity. Not only does this include the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which boasts dozens upon dozens of worlds that could be implemented over the next few games in the series, but Star Wars is massive. This is a company that now owns the rights to Marvel, Star Wars and 20th Century Fox. It would make sense for the company to introduce these worlds sporadically to give them all a fair chance to shine and allow for future Kingdom Hearts games to introduce them.īut there’s so much more to this than just Disney’s line-up of animated features. Pixar is still pumping out fun films with lovable worlds, including last year’s Luca, and most recently, Turning Red.

In addition to Kingdom Hearts 4, the 20th anniversary announcement video also revealed Kingdom Hearts Missing Link, a new mobile game in which players battle against the Heartless in a “new, original story”.

They’re caught off guard by a sinister voice accompanied by a blazing flame. It’s not clear if the player will be in control of these actions, or if they’re simply added cinematic flair to kick off the fight.Īlong with Sora, Goofy and Donald appear toward the trailer’s end, seemingly lost in the dark and on the hunt for clues as to Sora’s whereabouts. Sora is extremely acrobatic in the trailer, launching off lampposts and running up buildings as he approaches his foe. It isn’t long before he’s battling a gigantic dark monster in the middle of the cityscape, all the time watched by mysterious figures in dark robes. The new locale is Quadratum, which Square Enix refers to as a “large, expansive city set in a gorgeous, realistic world.” The first footage of what looks like gameplay for Kingdom Hearts 4 shows Sora waking in an apartment before being greeted by a new face.
