Forums - Gaming - Kingdom Hearts 3 will release on Xbox One

Makes sense to me.

EDIT: Unfortunately, I don't see Xbox gamers buying either of them, so hopefully it doesn't increase development costs.

I knew KH was going multiplat the second Dream Drop Distance came out. I had a very strong feeling.

Welp there goes the Japanese sales and Nintendo Wii-U version dreams xD.

More power to developers/publishers - oh and fans who wont get a PS4 because they are loyalist gamers :(

 

Will be getting it on PS4 for sure - just wish it came out on PS3 though.


No WiiU version is weird. But shows how much SE don't Believe in WiiU.

If they think Xbone version can sell more than WiiU.



I figured all 3 for both games. WiiU got screwed.

No Wii U version make perfect sense.

DirectX 11 engine - Wii U too underpowered.

Good business move regarding FFXV.

As for KH3, it's an iffy one. On one hand, it makes sense to broaden the audience for revenue and series exposition to the XBOX fanbase, but on the other hand, it's the third part of a series that hasn't and will not see any of the previous games released on that console/XBOX brand.

So unless you're a KH fan with a XBOX One, going into a franchise so complex like KH with only just one game can possibly be a deal breaker to a lot of people. Unless, of course, they release the KH HD compilations on the 360/One, which is most unlikely.



Current PC Build

CPU - i7 8700K 3.7 GHz (4.7 GHz turbo) 6 cores OC'd to 5.2 GHz with Watercooling (Hydro Series H110i) | MB - Gigabyte Z370 HD3P ATX | Gigabyte GTX 1080ti Gaming OC BLACK 11G (1657 MHz Boost Core / 11010 MHz Memory) | RAM - Corsair DIMM 32GB DDR4, 2400 MHz | PSU - Corsair CX650M (80+ Bronze) 650W | Audio - Asus Essence STX II 7.1 | Monitor - Samsung U28E590D 4K UHD, Freesync, 1 ms, 60 Hz, 28"

What's the point when they never got the first two?



Xbox Series, PS5 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Prediction: Switch 2 will outsell the PS5 by 2030

Well both games will sell poorly on Xbox just due to their nature as JRPGs, but the extra 500k sales for FF15 and few hundredk for KH will probably be worth the port cost.

I agree on that, mostly because both consoles have so much similarity between the architectures that porting costs will probably be very small.

ff is losing its reputation already so the little sales it gets on xbox1 is going to help square enix kingdom hearts on the other is going to do no more that ff13-2 did on the 360
