Vox 94 Posted June 4, 2014 Short and sweet to the point. We knew it officially began development last year, but KH2 began development in 2003 and came out in late 2005. Granted Nomura said last year's announcement was too early but well...it's Nomura. Maybe he preferred to have it announced a year before release instead of 2. We aren't the development teams, we can't say when it can or can't come out (obviously saying it would come out this year is far fetched and highly improbable) Besides we already have the Osaka team working on it and I'm sure 2.5 is done with and is in it's localization stages. Once the main team is finished and the two teams come together, there's no telling how much of the game will actually be done yet. Two teams would cause it to come out quicker, regardless. Aren't PS4 titles supposed to be easier to develop now too or is that a misconception I got from the interwebs after E3? I'm still thinking a Q4 2015 release for KH3 is possible. 3 LeYenrz, Sora and Lalalablah reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted June 4, 2014 Nomura has already said FINAL FANTASY XV will most likely be released first, and that won't come out until after March 2015. Kingdom Hearts III is still far too early in development. Yes, PlayStation 4 games are easier to develop than PlayStation 3 but developers still need to get to used to the new hardware. And don't compare it to Kingdom Hearts II, the team that developed Kingdom Hearts II has been developing ONE game since 2006. 4 Kodakliv, sagman12PC, Kittenz and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vox 94 Posted June 4, 2014 And don't compare it to Kingdom Hearts II, the team that developed Kingdom Hearts II has been developing ONE game since 2006. FFXV seems like a very rare exception that seems video game companies have. I mean look at Duke Nukem Forever and HL Ep 3, granted the latter has just recently gotten a claim that is in development, they seem to hault dev time for the console jump. As for devs getting used to the new hardware, wouldn't that have happened before the PS4 came out, since it did have titles coming out since launch. Granted I guess you mean specific dev teams. I just feel like the companies would implement some kind of course for them to take for it, not really sure how that works lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hero of Light XIV 2,381 Posted June 4, 2014 Even late 2015 would be pushing it. We can expect more news and trailers in 2015, but the game itself probably won't be out until 2016. I'm glad that nobody has used the 13th Anniversary of Kingdom Hearts as a reason it should be released in 2015 though, that would have done nothing to convince me.

Connected 978 Posted June 4, 2014 I still and always will believe it comes out in 2015. I Mean 5 year to make a game? It possible. Even late 2015 would be pushing it.

Its (one of) my reason te believe it. And for the love of god.... We have waited 10 years for the next-Numbered Kingdom Hearts. The world is Ready..

Gamerazor247 877 Posted August 3, 2014 There's to many games. We got XV, Type-0 XIII, and possibly another TWEWY. Kh3 is most likely to release in 2016 .. IMO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
liamaru 294 Posted August 3, 2014 also this year is "the year of kingdom hearts 2.5" but im possitive we'll recieve news next year Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblade Master Xoncron 499 Posted August 3, 2014 I don't think KH3 will come out until 2016 at least. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeNate13 144 Posted August 3, 2014 I actually hope it doesn't come out until at least really late 2015 or even 2016! I want the game to be the best it can be and not be rushed! Because I don't want something incomplete like the Days movies was! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyblader_95 1,410 Posted August 3, 2014 I would call it a miracle if we get to play it in 2017, since I think Kingdom Hearts III will most likely be released around fall 2016 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sagman12PC 280 Posted August 3, 2014 2015 seems too early for a release date in my opinion. FFXV will probably come out in 2015 with KH3 taking the spotlight in 2016 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
