Kingdom Hearts 3, Or Not, Or Maybe

Posted on Thursday 8th January 2015 at 21:26 by Death Penalty

Late yesterday, the voice actor for Goofy tweeted that Kingdom Hearts 3 would be released later this year. This spawned happy squeals across the globe, but Square Enix has since responded with a tweet of their own, denying any set release date and saying "There was a Goof!"

It's hard to tell which tweet to trust. The game was announced at E3 2013, but is believed by many (as also suggested in the Goofy tweet) to have been in development for quite some time before then. This isn't a huge time window for a game like KH3, but it's certainly a possible one. Additionally, with Tetsuya Nomura relieved of his other main project (then-named Final Fantasy Versus XIII) in order to concentrate fully on KH3, it is reasonable to suggest that development has stepped up over the last year (this has certainly been the case for the now-named Final Fantasy XV). But on the other hand, we've heard just about nothing from the game's development team in last year, which would make a release within the next year seem rather unlikely.

	So is this more or less likely than Half-Life 3? I'm less familiar with KH3 as far as memedom goes.

	Much more likely.

	Quote (Glenn Magus Harvey @ 20th January 2015 13:10) So is this more or less likely than Half-Life 3? I'm less familiar with KH3 as far as memedom goes. Well the existence of the game is 100% likely. Though the title of this newspost is admittedly ambiguous, the game has indeed been announced as in-development as of E3 2013. It's very hard to imagine them releasing this year, though, as there has been very little news/hype of any sort since the initial announcement. I would definitely expect to hear more from the game as the year progresses, though, and it's possible (now that the game's development seems to be getting a bit more attention) that we'll see a 2016 release.
