Kingdom Hearts III switched to Unreal Engine 4

Kingdom Hearts III is now being built on Unreal Engine 4, director Tetsuya Nomura has revealed.

Nomura shared the news regarding a switch of engines while speaking with Famitsu. In a recent interview with the magazine, he stated that the change came about due to “various reasons”. Because of the engine switch, the team is experiencing some issues with rendering, though Epic Games has been working closely with the team to sort out any problems.

As for the actual game itself? Nomura mentioned that development is proceeding as planned.

SE should stop trying to make their own engine.



This is not a good news at all. It takes a lot of time to adopt and implement in a new engine. This game got delayed 1+ year just for this news.

You assume development would've gone smoothly with Luminous. They're probably saving time with UE4.


This is all guess work. But I have to admit unreal engine is awesome. I have tried UDK (Unreal developers kit; which is free) and its awesome.



SE is the slowest company at making games that I actually want to come out. KH3 and FFXV are never coming out.



Really? How long do we have to wait now? Geez.



Switching engines is not what I want to be hearing at this point. Stop fucking around SE.



I doubt we'll see this game before 2017.
