<\/figure>\n
As part of the series\u2019 20th anniversary celebrations, Square Enix just used a Sunday evening presentation in Japan to unveil two new Kingdom Hearts<\/em> games, one of them being *Kingdom Hearts IV<\/em>.<\/p>\n*
The show, held in Tokyo, had live music, artwork presentations and \u201con-stage appearances from Series Director, Tetsuya Nomura, series\u2019 composer, Yoko Shimomura, and other development members\u201d. The big news, though, was the Kingdom Hearts IV<\/em> announcement, alongside the reveal of another new *Kingdom Hearts<\/em> game, this one for mobile. <\/p>\n*
Both trailers are included in the video below, viewable after a short sequence for *Kingdom Hearts Dark Road\u2019s<\/em> final story update. Why three videos in one clip? <\/p>\n*
<\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">The first new game is called <em>Kingdom Hearts Missing-Link<\/em>, and its trailer runs from 1:53 to4:05. A closed beta for it is coming to iOS and Android later this year, though only in \u201cspecific regions\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">The <em>Kingdom Hearts IV<\/em> trailer begins right after, and features the expected mix of Square Enix and Disney characters, only this time \u201cset in a gorgeous, realistic world unlike anything ever seen before in the KINGDOM HEARTS series\u201d. It has Japanese audio, but there are English subtitles baked into this version:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"flex-video widescreen\"><iframe data-src=\"https:\/\/kotaku.com\/embed\/inset\/iframe?id=youtube-video-j2DSEkYFRh8&start=248\" data-chomp-id=\"j2DSEkYFRh8\" data-recommend-id=\"youtube:\/\/j2DSEkYFRh8\" id=\"youtube-j2DSEkYFRh8\" data-recommended=\"false\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" class=\"core-inset lazyload\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen=\"webkitAllowFullScreen\" mozallowfullscreen=\"mozallowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><span data-chomp-id=\"j2DSEkYFRh8\" data-recommend-id=\"youtube:\/\/j2DSEkYFRh8\" id=\"youtube-j2DSEkYFRh8\" data-recommended=\"false\" class=\"js_recommend\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">There\u2019s no word on platforms or release date for <em>Kingdom Hearts IV<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">Here\u2019s some additional info from the press release:<\/p>\n<blockquote data-type=\"BlockQuote\" class=\"sc-8hxd3p-0 jorAJZ\">\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">In the announcement trailer, Sora makes a triumphant return with an updated look at the beginning of an epic new storyline titled the \u201cLost Master Arc.\u201d Beginning with Sora facing off in a boss battle against a giant enemy, players are introduced to the Quadratum, a large, expansive city set in a gorgeous, realistic world unlike anything ever seen before in the KINGDOM HEARTS series. Fans will be excited to see the return of Sora\u2019s well-known companions Donald and Goofy, in addition to the first appearance of Strelitzia, a mysterious new character who appears before Sora in this strange new setting.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote data-type=\"BlockQuote\" class=\"sc-8hxd3p-0 jorAJZ\">\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">Fans can also look forward to KINGDOM HEARTS Missing-Link, an all-new game for iOS and Android devices, which allows players to embark on adventures from the realm of Scala ad Caelum into the real world. Players will be able to engage in exhilarating battles against the Heartless and discover a new, original story. A closed beta test is planned for 2022*.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span class=\"twitter-embed\"><iframe data-src=\"https:\/\/kotaku.com\/embed\/inset\/iframe?id=twitter-1513114270606757888&autosize=1\" autoresize=\"true\" id=\"twitter-1513114270606757888\" data-recommended=\"false\" width=\"500\" height=\"159\" class=\"core-inset lazyload\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"\" webkitallowfullscreen=\"webkitAllowFullScreen\" mozallowfullscreen=\"mozallowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/kotaku.com\/kingdom-hearts-iv-4-square-enix-disney-announced-reveal-1848774720\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Screenshot: Square Enix As part of the series\u2019 20th anniversary celebrations, Square Enix just used a Sunday evening presentation in Japan to unveil two new Kingdom Hearts games, one of them being Kingdom Hearts IV.
