As if one Kingdom Hearts IV trailer wasn’t enough, Square Enix released an extended version of the D23 trailer during the Kingdom Hearts panel! Between gameplay for Mickey, the reveal that Donald and Goofy are playable, the return of Riku, and so much more, there’s a lot to dig into and theorize about. Let’s get into it!
D23 has just begun, and Kingdom Hearts has already made a big splash! We got the reveal of a Coco world for Kingdom Hearts IV, a 2027 release window, and the announcement of a Kingdom Hearts anime! Let’s break it all down!
Surprise! Kingdom Hearts IV finally got a new trailer during the latest Nintendo Direct, and while it was very short, it was awesome! Character reveals, actual gameplay, a brand new Keyblade, story implications; this trailer had it all! Let’s dive in and break it all down!
It’s been three years since Kingdom Hearts IV was first announced, and we still haven’t received an update on the game. Many in the community have been angry and worried by the lack of news, but I think we need to take a step back and relax. Let’s talk about this Kingdom Hearts IV “news drought.”
Ever since Final Fantasy XVI was announced I’ve been eager to experience a new story in the iconic franchise and see how it continues to evolve. With a more “mature” story, a much stronger focus on real-time action, the promise of over-the-top setpieces, and an acclaimed development team behind it, I had pretty high expectations. And while Final Fantasy XVI managed to meet and even exceed some of those expectations, eventually the luster wore off and one truth revealed itself: that Final Fantasy XVI is simultaneously a fun and boring game to play.

For years it’s been ignored by Square Enix, but Final Fantasy VIII is finally getting the remaster treatment. Final Fantasy VII, IX, X, and XII have all gotten remasters over the past couple years, so it’s only right that VIII join the club. It’ll be coming later this year to consoles and PC.

Tonight at the Final Fantasy VII orchestra, Square Enix announced that the highly anticipated game is releasing on March 3, 2020. They also released a brand new trailer for the game. The footage continues to focus on the bombing mission at the start of the game with some new cutscenes that take place around the same time frame. Maybe we’ll see something else tomorrow for the game at Square Enix’s press conference? Regardless, it’s just great to see this game finally have a release date attached to it. Now it just needs to hold the date.
