Kingdom Hearts 4 to conclude the 22-year saga

After 22 years and 18 games, the Kingdom Hearts saga is finally reaching its conclusion. Tetsuya Nomura announced that the upcoming Kingdom Hearts 4 will bring the story to its end.

In an interview, Nomura mentioned that KH4 would be a soft reboot. This means new players can jump in without needing to play the previous games.

He also assured fans that the franchise will have a definitive end with this installment. Additionally, KH4 will answer the question posed in the first game: "Is this real or not?"

The Complex Kingdom Hearts Universe

Anyone who has played Kingdom Hearts knows the story is complex. Despite its Disney characters, the series is known for its intricate and often confusing narrative.

The universe includes multiple timelines, different character versions, and non-linear chronology. It's a chaotic but coherent storyline that spans many games on various consoles.

Nomura admitted that he is the only one who fully understands the underlying themes. Some of these themes aren't even explicitly mentioned in the games.

A Brief History

Kingdom Hearts, co-created by Nomura and Shinji Hashimoto, is a crossover between Disney and Final Fantasy. The series began in 2002.

Nomura started with a general idea and built the complex story from there. He even had ideas for KH4 while working on Kingdom Hearts 3.

What to Expect in KH4

Unfortunately, Nomura has not revealed much about the KH4 storyline. He hasn't confirmed if any themes from his secret notes will be central to the game.

Nomura keeps a vault of secret notes and documents about the series. These contain key information about characters, timelines, and story arcs.

He uses this database to keep track of the storyline and his thoughts. Nomura also watches YouTube videos to remember specific details and enjoys fan theories and analyses.

Fans' Anticipation

Fans are eagerly awaiting news about KH4. Since the first trailer was released over two years ago, there has been no new information.

We do know that the game will run on Unreal Engine 5. The initial trailer used Unreal Engine 4.

Fans hope for more details at events like the Tokyo Game Show. The first trailer has been thoroughly analyzed, with some speculating about a potential Star Wars world.
