Game News Kingdom Hearts 4 announced by Square Enix, first gameplay images and info!
Many Kingdom Hearts fans have been eagerly anticipating the franchise’s 20th anniversary celebration, feeling that announcements would be made. They were not mistaken since several titles were unveiled, including the new opus of the main saga!
It was in the second part of a video of about eight minutes that the news fell: yes, the Square Enix teams are currently developing Kingdom Hearts IV ! The new opus of the action-RPG license bringing together the characters of Square Enix and Disney will obviously not arrive not immediatelybut it does not mean that we have nothing to put in our mouths.
Welcome to Quadratum, Sora!
Currently, Kingdom Hearts 4 has no release date or platforms announcedbut we already know that it will open a whole new story arc, titled Lost Marter Arcafter the “trilogy” that ended in 2019. In this new episode, Sora will wake up 7 days after arriving in the Quadratum worldwhich undoubtedly evokes the city of Tokyo, and which gives a style much more realistic to the universe.
The video feels like it takes away from the fantasy vibe of other games, but that might just be one aspect of this new game. Still, bridges are already made with the other games, since we find Strelitzia, a character that the players Kingdom Hearts : Union X (Cross) have already encountered, and that this world will be able to evoke things in a certain number of players.
Already new features to spot in the gameplay
Obviously, Sora will not have time to get used to this new world since a threat appears very quickly. Armed with his trusty Keyblade, the character leaves very quickly face a Goliath in this city presented as a kind of Purgatory. We could have had to settle for CGI images, probably made with the Unreal Engine 5, but we also had the right to the first images of what the gameplay will look like Game.
First important elements, the Keyblade now also seems act as a grappling hook, and QTEs are still in the game. Also, the menu at the bottom left presents the commands, one of which is intriguing. According to our colleagues from Gamekult, the fourth line says “Build”letting you imagine new game mechanics.
Hooded men then suggest that Sora will seek to leave this world, but that the hope of finding the one from which he came is in vain. Finally, after this sequence, the spectators have finally found traces of Disney, since we follow Donald and Goofy, who wander through a dark area in search of Sorabefore coming across a character asking them where do they think they are going, which seems to scare them.
