Kingdom Hearts 4 Development Update Confirmed Amid Silence, With Progress on Final Fantasy VII Remake 3 Revealed
Kingdom Hearts fans have certainly felt an extended wait for news since the surprise announcement of Kingdom Hearts 4 in April 2022. Unlike the frequent updates seen for titles like Hollow Knight Silksong, information regarding Kingdom Hearts 4 has been scarce, with Square Enix sharing only a few blurry images since its reveal two years ago. This silence has left many fans concerned about the project's status, wondering if they would ever see more. However, Director Tetsuya Nomura recently offered reassurance: Kingdom Hearts 4 is still happening. Fans had hoped for Kingdom Hearts 4 news at D23, but it was during another event that an update finally arrived. Following the mention of Kingdom Hearts 4, Tetsuya Nomura discussed the ongoing development of Final Fantasy VII Remake 3, confirming significant progress and stating that an internal date has been established for a future announcement.
Kingdom Hearts 4 Development Advances According to Plan - Anticipate More Updates Post Final Fantasy VII Remake 3 Release
Regarding Kingdom Hearts 4, Nomura stated its development is proceeding according to plan. He affirmed, "It's right on track with our plans, so keep your eyes peeled for more updates." This reassurance is particularly welcome, especially after a mobile game project was scrapped, leaving fans waiting. Square Enix is now being careful, not rushing announcements, but still offering hints about what is to come. Having learned lessons regarding Kingdom Hearts 4, the company aims for more news once Final Fantasy VII Remake 3 is released.
