The strange part is that it's not on 360 since 3 is coming to the One. Not being on Wii/WiiU isn't that strange. I guess Sony has some sort of deal on the 2 main games.


The strange part is 3 coming to Xone.There is two possible reason for that:

 

1 - Square enix hopes that Xone demographic will be different than 360's(bigger japanese appeal,more j-softwares);

or

2 - MS opened the money flood-gate and money hated  Square enix to put KH3 on their console.


3. They're putting the games on Xbox One just because. They'll still get some additional sales. Consistency doesn't seem to matter to them since the remasters aren't on the 360.

It's more worthwhile for them to make new games multiplat than remasters I guess.


the problem with your "3" is that,like @wright said,KH3 will be a big budget AAA game,porting a game like that for a console that dont have the fanbase and (probably)the demographic is actually pretty risky(It's Square enix we are talking about! remember tomb raider?).add this with the fact that the Xone install base is(and probably will continue to be) smaller than PS4's and KH3 will sell 3:1(maybe 4:1).

 

Look MGS:GZ for example. It's a PS brand-related game made by japanese developers.It's selling(based on VGchartz) 3:1 and it's a SHOOTER(which usually is an xbox strong demographic genre).

 

I'm not saying KH3 will sell bad on Xone but Square enix(like any third party publisher/developer) have it's own projection.(again remember Tomb raider).And based on other JRPG and even other japanese games.It's very possible that Xone's will underperform.
