Rumor Patrol: Is Kingdom Hearts 3 Dropping Xbox One?
The listing for Kingdom Hearts 3 has disappeared from the Xbox Japan website, causing speculation that the upcoming RPG will now be a PlayStation 4 exclusive.
Ever since Kingdom Hearts 3 was officially announced at for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One at E3 2013, fans everywhere have been patiently waiting for the long-gestating game to finally come out. While not much news in the way of release dates, story lines, or gameplay footage have been released since the game’s announcement, confirmation of the title’s multi-console availability has recently been subject to speculation due to the Kingdom Hearts 3 listing – or lack thereof – on the Xbox Japan website.
When searching for the Kingdom Hearts 3 listing on the Xbox Japan website, gamers will find that the page has disappeared, fueling speculation that the long-awaited title may not coming to the Xbox One and will in fact be a PlayStation 4 exclusive. However, all this speculation should be taken with a big grain of salt as when one looks up the game on the official Square Enix website, it is still listed as being available for Xbox One.
In addition to the Square Enix website, the Microsoft Store is still allowing players to pre-order Kingdom Hearts 3 , further debunking the PlayStation 4 exclusivity rumor. At the time of writing, Square Enix have yet to comment on this rumor.
Of course, the lack of an Xbox One listing could simply be the result of a technical glitch, but having said that, Xbox One owners shouldn’t be too surprised should the rumors surrounding Kingdom Hearts 3 ‘s PlayStation 4 exclusivity turn out to be true. All previous Kingdom Hearts titles have never made the leap to Xbox, including the upcoming Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue .
As for what we do know about Kingdom Hearts 3 , Square Enix has confirmed that the upcoming RPG will not contain any worlds from the Final Fantasy series, and director Tetsuya Nomura has revealed that the game will finally conclude the “Dark Seeker” storyline.
Given that the game appears to be far from release, far-fetched rumors will continue to surround the title, such as the possibility of a PlayStation 3 release. Until Square Enix confirms or denies this PlayStation 4 exclusivity rumor – or any rumor for that matter – all Kingdom Heart 3 speculation should be taken with a grain of salt.
Kingdom Hearts 3 is currently without an official release date, but it is expected to launch for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Kingdom Hearts 3 Director Not Considering Switch Version Until After Xbox One, PS4 Versions Are Released.
Kingdom Hearts 3 director Tetsuya Nomura says a Nintendo Switch version of Kingdom Hearts 3 or Xbox One versions of the Kingdom Hearts HD I.5 and II.5 ReMix or Kingdom Hearts HD II.8 Final Chapter Prologue collections could be possible in the future, but only after existing versions of Kingdom Hearts 3 are complete.
Speaking to IGN at D23 Expo today, Nomura said he isn’t ruling out Kingdom Hearts 3 coming to Nintendo Switch eventually, but wants to fulfill the promise of the PS4 and Xbox One versions before the team focuses on additional platforms.
“The Nintendo Switch is definitely a very interesting piece of hardware, but if we lightly say, ‘Oh yeah, we’ll be on the Nintendo Switch,’ I’m sure people will come back and say, ‘But what about the PS4 and Xbox One? We want them out first. Don’t focus on other platforms,’” Nomura told IGN. “So for now, we want to focus on what platforms we’ve already announced we’re going to be releasing Kingdom Hearts 3 on. And so after, perhaps, maybe we can start thinking about other possibilities.”
Similarly, Nomura didn’t completely dismiss the possibility of HD collections on Xbox One, but noted that he isn’t sure demand exists outside of the West.
“Just like with the previous answer, if we were to announce yet another non-Kingdom Hearts 3 [project]. people are going to be like, ‘Hey, what’s going on?’ So we will want to focus on releasing on the platforms that we have already announced,” he reiterated.

Highlights.
Kingdom Hearts 3 has had new locations leaked The game is slated for the PS4 and Xbox One No release date has been announced yet.
Kingdom Hearts 3, the next entry in the crossover action role-playing game series feating Final Fantasy and Disney characters has had a wealth of information leaked regarding possible worlds or in-game locations. Files pertaining to the much anticipated PS4 and Xbox One game were discovered online and their details laid bare on Reddit.
“I’m going to go ahead and say that I've done my own research and I have ran across the files that were supposedly leaked," claims Reddit user Rum3636. "I am not however able to download any of them probably due to the fact I don't run any software and that Square has probably removed all of these files by now (though they are still searchable) I'm going to give the files that I have found and give my idea of what these worlds are as well as what other people think they are."
No release date for Kingdom Hearts 3 has been announced yet and if you want your Kingdom Hearts 3 experience to be spoiler-free we recommend not reading the following list.
Kingdom Hearts 3 worlds list.
TS - likely to be short form for Toy Story. Files include: Airdroid robot, Gigas, Floor A , Floor B, Floor C, gunball machine, area doll stage, areadollflamenco, areadollshelf, areadollflamenco, areadollcastle, areadollcushion, areabosscube, and areabosscone. RA - probably short for Rapunzel (Tangled). Environments include Bonfire, Cliffhill, Curvecliff, Limestone cave, Swamp Clover, mushroom, lead flower, jagged grass, dead hornbeam, wetlandlamp, torch, mountain, lavender, tower door, and branch. The Redditor notes that it’s odd to see files pertaining to Tarzan levels present here. FZ02 - refers to Frozen and there are a lot of files pertaining to icicles. “There is literally like icicle files label A, B, C, D as well as Area files labeled the same way,” the user notes. RG - Radiant Garden perhaps. Has files for Castle, monitor, computer, machine, door, pipe A, pipe B, pendulum, balance stick, arc gate, house, castlebehind, and computer room. DP - this one is more cryptic than the rest with the leaker suggesting it could be for “Land of Departure maybe? Or maybe it's Daybreak P. Has a lot of castle files. Castlehandrail, castlewall, castlestaindglass, castlefloor, castlestage.” HE - possible for a Hercules-themed world with files like groundstairswall, groundstairspillar, groundstairsbrokenwall, buildingroof, stoneblock, arc relief, arc stone, arc pillar, Hercules doll,pot broken, and hammer. PO - could pertain to Winnie the Pooh’s tree. Files include rabbithouse, landry, honeypot, scarecrow, vegetables, bridge, and fence. DC - quite possibly Disney Castle. There are files for library bookshelf, candle, chair, ink bottle,library fireplace, and dog bed.

Kingdom Hearts 3 release date news and new 2018 gameplay update for PS4 and Xbox One.
THE KINGDOM Hearts 3 release date has been a long time coming but it appears Square Enix might be readying a big announcement very soon.
The Kingdom Hearts 3 release date to be announced soon?
For those who have been waiting for news on the Kingdom Hearts 3 release date, it’s been quite a long road.
Fans have had 12 years between Kingdom Hearts 2 and 3, with the first title launching back in 2002 for the PS2.
But having first been announced in 2013, it appears KH3 will finally arrive on PS4 and Xbox One in 2018.
According to an online source, the popular Square Enix franchise will be launched in the fiscal third-quarter of this year.
This still provides a pretty wide range of dates to choose from, meaning that the game could launch as soon as July, or as late as September.
The same rumours also suggest that Square Enix will officially announce the new Kingdom Hearts 3 release date in February.
Something similar happened with the launch of Final Fantasy 15, although that was eventually delayed and pushed back to another month.

This new information does not come from an official source and should therefore be taken with a big pinch of salt.
There are also rumours surrounding some of the new game worlds which will be included in Kingdom Hearts 3.
New excerpts from the PlayStation Official Magazine Australia appear to confirm that characters like Riku will be playable in the game.
This will include perspectives being split between Riku and Sora, who will apparently be exploring worlds based on Tangled and Fantasia.
“The latest game in the Disney-meets-Final-Fantasy mash up series is split between the perspectives of best buds Sora and Riku,” the Official Magazine excerpt reportedly explains.
“You will meet a host of new characters whose help you’ll need to stop the evil Keyblade war.

“Familiar faces and places return but there are new worlds to visit inspired by Toy Story, Fantasia and Tangled.”
Talking about different gameplay elements, the blurb continues: “The flow of the action too will be recognisable for fans but there are a few tweaks.
“For example, Drove Forms return with new weapons, and combat movement has also been improved; you’re now able to wall-run and even climb larger enemies.”
There have also been reports of leaked images appearing on Discord, showing off a new world in the game.
These reportedly show the game dropping in on the Monsters Inc. characters, with Mike and Sully seen in the background.
It’s unclear if these new images are the real deal but if they are, it would mean some interesting new information for fans who have been left waiting for a new update.

Kingdom Hearts III.
Kingdom Hearts III is an action role-playing game developed by Square Enix and published by Disney Interactive Studios. It is the first Kingdom Hearts game to be featured on a Microsoft platform, having previously only released on Sony Computer Entertainment and Nintendo platforms, and the first to originally release on more than one console. It is the eighth installment in the Kingdom Hearts series. Sora is still the protagonist of the game, and KH3 also sees the return of Riku, Donald Duck, Goofy, and King Mickey, as well as other familiar Disney characters. Continuing from Dream Drop Distance, Sora, Donald and Goofy attempt to search for seven guardians of light and the "Key to Return Hearts", while King Mickey and Riku search for previous Keyblade wielders in an attempt to stop Master Xehanort's plan to balance the light and darkness. The game features new and familiar worlds based on Disney properties, and serves as the final chapter of the "Dark Seeker" saga.

A new Kingdom Hearts 3 release date update.
Kingdom Hearts 3 is another big game that console fans are hoping will arrive in 2018.
Currently only confirmed for PS4 and Xbox One, the popular Square Enix project has seen a lot of delays in its development cycle.
The new launch window does put the Kingdom Hearts 3 release date during 2018, although fans are still waiting for a crucial update on what month it will arrive.
But while Square Enix are still tightlipped on that front, a recent retail listing has sparked talk of another long wait.
Target recently changed their placeholder date to November 1, 2018, something that caught the eye of fans.
While the Kingdom Hearts 3 placeholder doesn’t come from Square Enix directly, it’s certainly more specific than the usual “December 31” we usually get.
Director Tetsuya Nomura recently revealed why the game, which was announced back in 2013, has spent so long in development.

Delays have apparently been caused by development shifting to Unreal Engine 4.
"A lot of people have been mentioning and making it sound like 'Oh, Nomura’s taking too much time,' and it hurts," he said.
"There was a decision made to change to an external [engine]. Unreal Engine 4. So we switched over to that."
"Unfortunately there was a bit of time that needed to be rewinded and started over," he continued.
"So there was a bit of a setback there, but it was a decision that the company had to make, so it was inevitable."
"We had a plan of the period that it’s going to take for us to create the content at the start of the project, and we laid out, after such and such years, we would need to add more personnel resources.

"We had submitted it to our headquarters and had it approved, but internal personnel is very limited, and there are various different projects that happen within our company, so unfortunately timing did not work out.
"So we had to make due with the timing that was appropriate for the company. the company makes the decisions, so unfortunately sometimes it is out of my control."
Interestingly, the switch to Unreal Engine 4 means that Kingdom Hearts 3 could be easily ported to PC, or perhaps even the Nintendo Switch.
There have also been reports of new leaked images appearing on Discord, showing off a new world in the game.
These reportedly show the game dropping in on the Monsters Inc. characters, with Mike and Sully seen in the background.
It’s unclear if these new images are the real deal but if they are, it would mean some interesting new information for fans who have been left waiting for a new update.
