Kingdom Hearts III: A release date theory

“Worlds away”


I’m a huge Kingdom Hearts fan and I’m super excited for the third entry (technically the eighth game of the series). However, there hasn’t been an official release date yet. The first game came out in 2002 for the PS2, and its 10th anniversary was in 2012 which was celebrated by the release of Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance for the Nintendo 3DS.

 Now here’s where my theory comes into play. Square Enix, the publisher of the series has not released an official release date and it would make sense to me if it came out in 2017 because it would coincide with the 15th anniversary of the series as a whole. I could be wrong and it could be scheduled for 2016, but I feel that the anniversary factor has a huge chance that it might come out then to celebrate this franchise with the finale of what Tetsuya Nomura (Director of the series) has stated that this will be the end of the Xehanort Saga. It makes sense to me that they would do this to commemorate this franchise to celebrate its finale of the Xehanort arc and make it a big event for the year, franchises history and its anniversary. It has had a huge mark on gaming history (and my childhood), but in my opinion has had one of the best video game soundtracks in a series as a whole. It has converted me to be a fan to Yoko Shimoura the composer of the game’s music.

 If you haven’t played the series, you should pick up the HD collections on the PS3 they both go for $20 with the first one being slightly dated, but still enjoyable. If you have no interest in the series you should at least give the music a shot, the series has a complicated storyline, but the music is superb and is definitely one of the things I enjoy most along with its very fun and interactive combat. This theory maybe wrong in the long run, but only time will tell if I was right or wrong.
