Kingdom Hearts IV and Kingdom Hearts Missing-Link announced
Square Enix and Disney gave Kingdom Hearts fans some major news at the Kingdom Hearts 20th anniversary event today.
Kingdom Hearts IV has been announced, but fans won’t be able to play it anytime soon. The game is currently in early development. An announcement trailer for the new game can be seen below.
Mobile gamers will get some Kingdom Hearts love with Kingdom Hearts Missing-Link, which will have its closed beta this year. In the title, players will engage in an original story taking place at Scala ad Caelum.
Kingdom Hearts brand manager Ichiro Hazama said this about the new titles:
“We’re thrilled to celebrate the series’ 20th anniversary with the announcement of two new KINGDOM HEARTS titles. We’d like to thank the fans for all of their support over the years, and we can’t wait for them to experience all that’s to come for Sora.”
Walt Disney Games director Nana Gadd also said:
“Sora is an original Disney video game hero like no other, beloved by our team, and fans across the world. We’ve been honored to work with Tetsuya Nomura and his team for two decades to introduce these original stories of discovery, courage, and friendship. This glimpse into Sora’s next adventure is just the beginning – we can’t wait to show more when the time is right.”
Cloud versions of the Kingdom Hearts series recently made its way to the Nintendo Switch in February.
