TheBucket2 114 Posted January 19, 2012 So now that the Japanese release date has been confirmed as March 29th, time to start speculating a US release date (which in turn can include the UK date, seeing as they're usually only a day or two apart.) By the trends going, I can see a Q4 release date for us. Meaning sometime in late October to mid December. Birth by Sleep came out eight months after the Japanese release (Japan's being January and ours being September.) However, we got 358 in half that time, only 4 months later, also in September. Re:coded was a bit faster, but I can barely count that as it (appeared to be) much simpler to localize. That took only 3 months, from October to January. For 3D, I'm not sure. It's a DS game, but it's also a 3DS title and on-par with a game like BbS. So It's kinda hard to guess. I'd say September again. Seems like they have a trend. I know this just blatantly defies what I said above about a Q4 release, but oh well. We should see 3D with English localization between September and December, at my guess.

Kishira 2,854 Posted January 19, 2012 If they decide to keep the birthday trend going and have the western release for September/October.....I'm gonna have to start going on a murder spree or something. >/ 4 Blue Rhapsody, RobertOrri, Kinode and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Always 309 Posted January 19, 2012 I would be overjoyed if they would release it before mid-August, but...yeah, it's not gonna happen. http://kh13.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/sleep.png It'll probably be in September or something. 1 Blue Rhapsody reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob 5,571 Posted January 19, 2012 I will be shocked that a company that is suppose to be "localizing the game faster than usual" just decides to release the game on it's 10th anniversary because it's the 10th anniversary(does not compute). I understand Japan doing it, but normally the companies don't care when they release the game overseas because of a special day. I expect before September. 3 Blue Rhapsody, Kishira and axel91 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted January 19, 2012 I'm tipping August. They have confirmed that an English trailer is coming soon via the official website and Facebook page. September isn't out of the question either. North America: August 20 Australia: August 22 Europe: August 24 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lizzie1238 538 Posted January 19, 2012 July, I hope. August would be fine too. Or September, if they release it on the 4th (that would be an awesome 16th b-day present for me!) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 188 Posted January 19, 2012 Well, since Kingdom Hearts 3D is a much larger game, similar to Kingdom Hearts BBS, and 358/2 Days and Re:coded were simple, and shorter DS games. I would think that Kingdom Hearts 3D would be released from August-October. I hope that the game is released on my birthday, or close to it, so here is my release date speculations. North America: September 6, 2012 (BBS was released on September 7, 2010. Notice that 3D will be released in Japan a day after the first game was released, except 10 years later. Since BBS was released on September 7, I would hope they would release the game one day earlier, except two years later. Also, that's my birthday United Kingdom: September 22, 2012 (I just am guessing. I think that might be the release date.) Australia: September 24, 2012 (Usually the Australian version is released a day or two after the UK version.) Also, if you didn't get what I meant when I said September 6, 2012. I was saying that since the original Kingdom Hearts was released March 28, and this game will be released a day later. They should do what they did with that except one day earlier and with a different game. BBS was released September 7, 2010, this game should be released a day earlier, just on different years. Just clearing things up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ryan 188 Posted January 19, 2012 I see everyone locked my thread. It wasn't a speculation. The game will be released within September-October. Remember, I know people from SE. I think it will be released on September 18. I'm not a noob when it comes to KH. I've played every game in the series and have even played the Final Mixes and read the manga. I even imported them as well as the Ultimanias. Not to be off-topic or rude. I know about KH. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You really aren't a KH fan if you don't get why it's September 18. Think about their reason for this. The game series came out on March 28 in Japan, it will be released in Japan on March 29. September 17 was when the original KH came to America, it would be a day later. Wow, and I was called a noob. Haha. Ironic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
