| CrazzyMan said: Bodhesatva, then what is yours explanations, why Kingdom hearts 3 won`t come to ps3? http://ps3.ign.com/articles/769/769776p1.html Which brings us to Nomura's mention of Kingdom Hearts 3. A programmer, having heard of Nomura's intentions to add air ships to the game, remarked "Is this Kingdom Hearts III?". Ge-maga followed up by confirming the development of a new Kingdom Hearts game. Nomura responded by saying that it would be impossible to work on two huge projects at once, so he hopes to get started on the next Kingdom Hearts game after having accumulating know-how from Versus XIII. so, very soon, you will get announcement, don`t worry. :)Elsewhere in the issue, Nomura commented that we'll be getting word on the next Kingdom Hearts project following the summer (note that this implies that the May Square Enix party won't be the unveiling ground, although this issue of the magazine was released prior to the announcement of that event). It's unclear if this is the same project Nomura referred to in the Versus XIII interview, or a side project whose development is taking place concurrently with Versus XIII. |
Tetsuya Nomura stated he has ideas for another installment; a secret clip that appears to be a teaser trailer for the next installment is shown at the end of Kingdom Hearts II if certain completion goals are met. However, Nomura did not state exactly what he would like to do with a new installment. The Kingdom Hearts team is postponing Kingdom Hearts projects to be able to work on Final Fantasy Versus XIII, but a new Kingdom Hearts project will be revealed in summer 2007. In Famitsu, Nomura stated that there are multiple Kingdom Hearts projects in the works, although what those projects consist of is not known.
With the release of Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+, a new teaser has further hinted at the potential plot of the next installment in the series. According to Nomura, it will be a whole new series. "The next title won't just be Kingdom Hearts III. If it were III, we wouldn't call it a new series." The new series is set to be announced at this year's Tokyo Game Show.
