January 28 - It was the day before Kingdom Hearts 3...
Happy day before Kingdom Hearts 3, everyone! I'm super excited for the upcoming release, so be sure to keep checking here for all of your Kingdom Hearts needs. I'll be checking the comments to see if anyone has any questions, so fire off down below if you have any questions!
While we're talking about unanswered questions, Square Enix and the Kingdom Hearts YouTube channel have come together to release a mini-series of videos in the attempt to catch people up with the core story so far. There are five videos in total and takes about 15 to 20 minutes to get through. So if you want to prepare for the big day tomorrow, this is a great way to get started!
Of course, if you fancy a more detailed explanation of things, don't forget to check out our Kingdom Hearts 101 article which is a deep dive into the Kingdom Hearts lore.

January 10 - Update to Kingdom Hearts Classic Kingdom's Points!
It's safe to say, that unlocking the Starlight Keyblade in Classic Kingdom is a little bit of a struggle. Those mini-games are by no means easy and it's a challenge to get the point needed to meet the criteria. Well, there is some important news for those who are grinding away those precious points in order to get their code for the Starlight Keyblade for Kingdom Hearts 3.
An update from the Japanese updates page states that :
As of 1/10 at 15:00 JST, the score requirements for the KINGDOM HEARTS III Starlight Keyblade Limited Challenge have been halved! Those who haven't completed the minigames yet should definitely jump on this opportunity! Players will still earn jewels by completing the goals. For those who have automatically cleared the goals now that the score has been halved, the jewels will be distributed to your present box.
This means good news for those who have been toiling away at Classic Kingdom. You're now a lot closer than you think to getting that code for your Keyblade. For those who don't know where to start, don't worry we have a guide for How to get the Starlight Keyblade so you can get started in getting your own!
January 7 - Kingdom Hearts Walkman, Exclusive Bonus, & Memory Archives.
It's been a busy few days for Kingdom Hearts news as we gear up for the last few weeks until Kingdom Hearts 3! Best Buy has announced that their pre-order bonus for Kingdom Hearts 3 will be the Monogram Direct Kingdom Hearts series 3D Foam Keyrings Series 1 blind bag. If you want to pick up this exclusive bonus, you can preorder by heading to the Best Buy website.
For those folks who Kingdom Hearts 3 will be their first entry into the series, there may be concerns that they will not be able to get up to speed before the game releases. This is a particular concern for Xbox players who will not have had access to The Story So Far bundle that is exclusive to PlayStation. Fear not! As Tai Yasue confirms with Newsbeat that there will be a "Memory Archive" similar to what is found in other entries in the series that will recap the series in a series of short movies. This is akin to what the Square Enix Japanese Youtube have done for Japanese audiences.
In exciting news, there is a partnership with Sony's Walkman brand to have a Kingdom Hearts-branded walkman and headphone set. It's set to include the full track of "Face My Fears" by Utada Hikaru & Skrillex. While we don't have many details on this kit just yet, its an exciting time to be a collector of gear. There is a signup link to find out more about this set on the Sony Walkman site.
January 3 - Disney Worlds and Disney Games!
Happy New Year from all of us here at the Android Central team! We only have a few short weeks left until Kingdom Hearts 3 arrives in our hands, and it has been revealed that there will be no more surprise Disney worlds. Kingdom Hearts 3 co-director Tai Yasue confirmed via an interview with NewsWeek that there would be no more surprise reveals for Disney Worlds. This means that in total we will have eight Disney worlds in Kingdom Hearts 3: Olympus, Kingdom of Corona, Toybox, Arendelle, SanFrankoyo, Monstropolis, The Caribbean, and 100 Acre Wood.
For those who play Disney Blitz, Tsum Tsum and Final Fantasy BRAVE EXVIUS we have some exciting Kingdom Hearts related news for you. Disney Blitz will be getting a special clear mode during the 17th until the 20th of January.
In Tsum Tsum, there will be banners in January featuring Sora, Riku, Kairi and Aqua. These Tsum Tsum's will be available from January 20th to January 22nd as well as January 29th to January 31st. Sora and Riku will be available from January 25th to January 27th. So keep an eye to collect your favourite characters! Special thanks to Tsum_luke and the r/tsumtsum group on Reddit for being on the ball!
For Final Fantasy Brave Exvius, fans will be delighted to hear that Sora and Cloud from Kingdom Hearts 1 will available in a limited time event. From now until 11th January 2019, players can obtain Sora and Cloud from Kingdom Hearts 1 through a new featured summon. There will be other bonuses too like login bonuses, and special raid bosses like Guard Armor and Darkside that players can look forward to during this time.
December 24 - Kingdom Hearts VR experience gets a trailer
While we would love for KH3 to have a full VR mode we are in luck that Square Enix have announced a VR experience based on the whole Kingdom Hearts series. According to the team at comicbook.com it's more likely to be a music video than a real game but in the YouTube video above there does seem to be some Keyblade swinging.
We will have to wait till January 18 to find out how interactive Kingdom Hearts VR will be, and thats just for part one. There will be a part two sometime in the future as well, and the nicest part of it all? It's going to be free to download, so you can enjoy VR kingdom hearts without worrying about the extra cost.
December 21 - Kingdom Hearts 3 Ultimania reveal & Jump Festa 2019
12月22日・23日に幕張メッセで開催される｢ジャンプフェスタ2019｣にプレイステーション®ブースを出展！ 特別な空間での『JUMP FORCE』と『KINGDOM HEARTS III』の試遊やフォトスポットでの記念撮影が楽しめます。ぜひ会場へお越しください！ https://t.co/1h6qV8iK6G #PS4 #ジャンプフェスタ pic.twitter.com/X35KNpi58G
— プレイステーション公式 (@PlayStation_jp) December 14, 2018
The Kingdom Hearts Ultimania is a series of compendiums that detail the nitty-gritty of everything to do with the particular game of the franchise. There has been an Ultimania for every series entry so far, and they cover everything from monster details to Keyblade breakdowns. While only published in Japanese these are essential guides for anyone who is a fan of Kingdom Hearts. As the 29th of January creeps ever closer, Square Enix has revealed the pre-order link to the Kingdom Hearts 3 Ultimania, which boasts about being the biggest yet, having more details than ever before and including an exclusive interview from Tetsuya Nomura. You can preorder it from the Square Enix website for 2,700 yen (or about $24).
Square Enix has released its lineup for Jump Festa 2019, with a list that includes Kingdom Hearts 3. Jump Festa is usually the last major event of the calendar year (December 22 - 23), and the lineup mentions that there will be a trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3 presented at the event as well as a photo op. While we're unsure about the trailer details at this moment in time, you can be sure that if it's a new trailer, you'll find out about it here!
PlayStation Japan has released what the photo op stage will look like at Jump Festa this year, and its safe to say I'm pretty jealous!
While there is no demo area for Kingdom Hearts 3 at the event this year, there is an opportunity to purchase some exclusive merchandise, and you can find out more details about it here.
December 17 - Final Kingdom Hearts 3 Trailer.
— KINGDOM HEARTS (@KINGDOMHEARTS) December 17, 2018Unexpected events have begun to unfold in the Disney worlds at the hands of the enemy's dark ambitions...
Sora and friends have gathered for the final battle between light and darkness in #KingdomHearts III!Will you be joining us in the epic adventure on January 29th? pic.twitter.com/EGCLPifxtS
Given yesterday's news of their being Kingdom Hearts 3 disks in circulation, today gave us a surprise.
That's right, Tetsuya Nomura has decided to move the schedule forward for the release of the final trailer. There is a lot to dig into this 3 minute and 56-second trailer. There is much new gameplay as well as cinematic. Please be warned, this trailer is not for the faint of heart, and it has more questions than answers.
There is a lot of lore included in this trailer and I'll leave that for you all to enjoy. So, I won't be discussing the story elements of the trailer here. However, we do get the exciting reveal of Riku being a playable character in Kingdom Hearts 3. We get to see our first gameplay footage of the Stitch summon (or D-link) known as Plasma Encounter, Rene's from Ratatouille summon (or D-link) call Frying Pan where you can, quite literally, run around hitting things with a frying pan (I'm a fan).
In the next scene, we get to see what look like are going to be new mini-games throughout a couple of worlds. In Andy's Toy Box (Toy Story) you collect special pudding heartless using the Mad Tea Cups summon. In the Caribbean (Pirates of the Caribbean) we are on the Black Pearl looking to take down heartless using the cannons. In San Fransokyo (Big Hero 6) we are bouncing on heartless to go higher and higher across the cities landscape. In this trailer, we join Rapunzel (City of Corona) in a dancing mini-game!
This is only a taste of the content that this trailer contains! So sit back, and enjoy this last trailer that we'll see before the game releases on the 29th of January 2019.
December 16 - Illegal copies of Kingdom Hearts 3 in circulation & a note from Tetsuya Nomura
— Ryan Brown (away!) 🎮❄️ (@Toadsanime) December 15, 2018Kingdom Hearts III copies are out in the wild - more than a month before release.
Confirmed via screenshots shared. Apparently stolen from employees of a shipping company.
Beware of spoilers out there! pic.twitter.com/Myym2Ek64h
As we creep ever closer to the release date, with a little more than a month away, it has been revealed that illegal copies of the game are being sold via the Facebook Marketplace.
We here at Android Central take these things, and the leaks, very seriously. As such, we will never be reporting on Kingdom Hearts 3 content that doesn't come from official sources. So, you will never have to worry about finding spoilers here.
With the fan base (rightfully so) tremendously worried about the prospect of having this highly anticipated game spoiled for them, members of the community have been warning each other against potential spoilers that may appear online and to use filters on social media to ensure that players remain unspoilt.
This has caught the attention of Square Enix, and Kingdom Hearts series director Tetsuya Nomura who issued this statement today.
An important message for #KingdomHearts III from Director Tetsuya Nomura: pic.twitter.com/j9aVRFTS5B
— KINGDOM HEARTS (@KINGDOMHEARTS) December 16, 2018
Thankfully it seems like this is something that they are getting a handle on. As Tetsuya Nomura mentions in the statement a lot of the significant spoilers like the epilogue and secret movie will not be able to be accessible until the game releases. However, be careful out there Keyblade Wielders!
December 14 - Pre-Orders for Limited Edition Kingdom Hearts 3 Bundle
Defeat the darkness in style with the new Limited Edition Kingdom Hearts III PS4 Pro bundle, launching January 29. First details: https://t.co/11magMBPjC pic.twitter.com/Pl8Al9NKVh
— PlayStation (@PlayStation) December 14, 2018
The moment we've all highly been anticipating for has arrived folks, our ability to pre-order that very fancy Kingdom Hearts 3 Limited Edition Console!
There will be two versions of the console at Gamestop US
- PlayStation 4 Pro 1TB Kingdom Hearts III Limited Edition Bundle will cost $399.99.
- PlayStation 4 Pro 1TB Kingdom Hearts III Hardware Ultimate Fan Bundle will cost $469.99.
Keep in mind while Limited Edition Bundle will be available at your local Gamestop, the Ultimate Fan Bundle says Online only.
For those without a local Gamestop, the Playstation Blog has a link for preorders where you can check out where to pre-order the console in your area.
For our UK and European friends, you need not worry either. GAME in the UK has announced its preorders for UK customers.
— GAME.co.uk (@GAMEdigital) December 14, 2018
Playstation Europe has confirmed the console as well, but no pre-order links have been provided yet.
December 12 — A Kingdom Hearts Christmas Experience
With all the excitement for the Opening Cinematic trailer that dropped recently, it's easy to forget some of the big news for Kingdom Hearts fans that have a PSVR. At TGS this year, it was announced that there would be a new Kingdom Hearts VR experience for Playstation VR owners and we finally got more information about this experience.
Releasing on Christmas Day, 25th of December we will be able to enjoy a musical experience of our journeys so far through the main series. It'll be 10 minutes in duration, and you will be able to enjoy your favourite memories and maybe bop some heartless to boot! Square Enix confirmed that you will be able to unlock more content as you proceed through the experience. There is also an update due on January 18th, so a week before the release of Kingdom Hearts 3.
The VR experience will be free for everyone to download, so I'd recommend folks who don't have a PSVR to download it, as this would be a good one to keep in your libraries should you get a PSVR later in 2019! This way you still get to enjoy the experience along with everyone else.
December 9 — New trailer shows off scenes and old battles from opening movie
We're finally 50 days from the release of Kingdom Hearts 3, and the hype is starting to get intense. Kingdom Hearts has been releasing trailers every few weeks showcasing new worlds, weapons, attacks, and allies, but today's new trailer doesn't show off new gameplay or new battles.
It shows off all the battles that led up to this point.
This "Opening Movie Trailer" takes us back before the beginning of Kingdom Heart I and gives us an ultra-compressed history of the Dark Seeker Saga in less than 90 seconds, from Aqua being trapped in the realm of darkness after her battles with Xehanort and Ven's heart taking refuge inside Sora up to Sora, Riku, and Kairi reuniting — along with Donald, Goofy, and Mickey reuniting — as they prepare to face Xehanort's "13 wielders of darkness".
It's hard to sum up the drama of a decades-long war taking place over half a dozen games involving dozens of important players, but it's great to see that Kingdom Hearts 3 is going to fill in the blanks for those of us who didn't play every KH game released in the last 16 years.
November 27, 2018 - Cyber Monday Amazon & Kinda Funny Games & New Trailers
Apologies, the KH3 video featuring our awesome new, exclusive DLC has been consumed by Heartless and not available. Learn what that DLC is, how to get it exclusively from Amazon, and score a Twitch Prime bonus on Monday Nov. 26 around 1pm PST on https://t.co/Um2rnH0H2k!
— Amazon Video Games (@amazongames) November 26, 2018
Black Friday is an exciting time of the year for shoppers of all kinds, but this year's Black Friday came with an exciting teaser for Kingdom Hearts fans. Amazon and Kinda Funny Games revealed in a live stream that on Cyber Monday that there would be some new DLC for the game, as well as another world premiere trailer.
This wasn't to be, however.
Shortly before the live stream was due to start, Amazon Video Games released Tweet shown above about the trailer.
With the new trailer devoured by heartless, an unsuspecting fan base that still joined in on the live stream expecting brand new content was only to be left disappointed by a 30-second re-edit of the Together trailer launched earlier this month! To add insult to injury, the exclusive DLC is the Dusk till Dawn Keyblade which was already released to pre-orders in Japan at E3 this year!
In happier news, Tetsuya Nomura took to the Japanese Kingdom Hearts Twitter account to let fans know the schedule for next month. While the translations are a little inaccurate at present, what we can take from the tweets is that there will be a new trailer on the 10th of December, a new video on the 18th of December and on the 21st a combination of a new trailer, 30 seconds of footage and cinematics. So there is plenty for fans to look forward to next month!
November 26, 2018 - Another Kingdom Hearts 3 Trailer, Water spells & Clothing Lines
How blessed are we that the trailer gods decided to rain down upon us this month! We have received one trailer a week this month with the Together, Winnie The Pooh and Lucca trailers all dropping this month it's been a whirlwind of content for the franchise. With there being rumors of another trailer releasing this week to round out the month, we recommend keeping your eyes peeled to here and the official Kingdom Hearts Youtube Channel for the latest updates.
In exciting news for a magic user of the series, there seems to be new elemental magic that has been included in the series. As long-time players will know, water magic has been excluded from Sora's magic. However, it seems like in the Winnie the Pooh Japanese trailer that there is confirmation that there is a water spell. While we're unsure as to what type of spell this would be, it's exciting news for magic users.
Ever wanted your own Kingdom Hearts clothes? No, I don't mean specially branded merchandise with the logos on it. But items of clothing and accessories that are designed after the main characters of Kingdom Hearts 3. Yes? Me too.
Our prayers have been answered by the brand Super Groupies as they have released a limited edition line for Kingdom Hearts 3 which starts preorders on December 1st. There is a pop-up store at the Seibu Ikebukuro main store for a limited time from the Saturday, December 1, 2018, to Wednesday, December 5, 2018! For those of us who aren't in Tokyo; fear not! International shipping is available, but you'll need to be quick as orders are from Saturday, December 1, 2018 - Sunday, December 16.
November 20, 2018 — Development has wrapped!
Square Enix has announced that development on Kingdom Hearts 3 has officially wrapped. Bet you never thought you'd read that sentence. To celebrate the occasion, the studio released an extended version of the trailer that's been playing in North American theaters. It all comes down to this as our heroes band together from all across the worlds of Disney to take down Organization XIII.
November 10, 2018 — Winnie the Pooh is back!
During Microsoft's X018 livestream a new trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3 was shown featuring everyone's favorite bear, Winnie the Pooh, and his gang of friends. The 100 Acre Wood will be home to mini-games focusing on puzzles that players can complete.
Aside from Winnie the Pooh, this trailer also gave us a new glimpse of Organization XIII. Whatever Master Xenohart is up to, it doesn't bode well for Sora and his pals.
November 3, 2018 — New trailer shows off the Kingdom of Corona
During the Italian comic and games festival LUCCA 2018, Square Enix revealed a new Kingdom Hearts 3 trailer showcasing the Tangled world, Kingdom of Corona. While fans got a better look at the upcoming game, franchise director Tetsuya Nomura could unfortunately not be in attendance as planned.
"I was supposed to visit #LuccaCG18 but as development on #KingdomHearts III is coming to an end, I have to focus on development," he said. "Instead, I've prepared a special trailer for everyone - please watch!"
October 3, 2018 — Grab the Deluxe Edition for a tad cheaper
Amazon is putting on a nice deal for the Deluxe Edition of Kingdom Hearts 3. Normally $80, the game is sitting on Amazon for $75.16. That's a savings of 6%. Take another $1.53 off when applying the coupon attached to this deal.
The total upfront discount isn't massive, but it effectively eliminates your tax obligation, so that's a win. Don't forget that Amazon offers a $10 credit for Prime members who pre-order it. The credit is delivered 30-35 days after the game ships. That's nearly $20 in savings with no hoops to jump through if you're already a Prime member (and if you're not, a free trial gets you there just as well).
The Kingdom Hearts 3 Deluxe Edition comes complete with a premium steelbook case, a hardcover art book, and a collectible pin. Look forward to the game launching in the west on January 29, 2019.

September 18, 2018
Following the trailer released last week, Square Enix has released an extended trailer diving deep into the world of Big Hero 6! This is our best look at the recreation of San Fransokyo yet. Expect to hear more information soon as Tokyo Game Show 2018 begins in a couple of short days.
September 10, 2018
Ahead of Tokyo Game Show (TGS) 2018, Square Enix has released a new Kingdom Hearts 3 trailer showcasing the world of San Fransokyo in Big Hero 6. Along with new gameplay, we got a glimpse at cinematics from the worlds of Monsters, Inc., Tangled, and Toy Story.
July 17, 2018
Those looking to pre-order Kingdom Hearts 3 just received some extra incentive to do so from GameStop. The company has revealed that one of three fabric posters will be included with your pre-order of the game, and it's up to you to cast your vote on Twitter with the hashtags noted in the image above to decide which one it will be.
June 11, 2018
Sony had their own piece of exclusive Kingdom Hearts 3 footage to show at E3 2018. The new footage confirms the inclusion of Pirates of the Caribbean. This isn't the franchise's first appearance in a Kingdom Hearts game, with Kingdom Hearts 2 having been the first.
Yes, Captain Jack Sparrow is back, and Sora's crew are on deck to help him live the pirate's life. The gameplay sequences for this world seem pretty epic, with both a ship battle and a fight with a huge sea monster being featured. The trailer also shows that a replica version of Riku will make an appearance.
Alongside that new footage, we get word that not only will there be a special edition Kingdom Hearts 3 PlayStation 4 console, but you'll also be able to buy all three mainline Kingdom Hearts games as a bundle. That means you'll get Kindom Hearts 1.5 HD Remix, Kingdom Hearts 2.5 HD Remix, and Kingdom Hearts 3 in the same package. They've even thrown in Kingdom Hearts 2.8: Final Chapter Prologue for good measure.
A release date for the special edition PS4 has not yet been confirmed, though it's likely we'll see it on or close to Kingdom Hearts 3's release date, which was previously confirmed to be January 29th, 2019.
June 10, 2018
Square Enix has announced a release date for Kingdom Hearts 3. It'll be arriving January 29th, 2019. Originally, their goal was to get the game out in 2018. However, the company needs more time to ensure the game is the best it can be before launch.
With that news, we also saw a new trailer at E3 2018 that revealed new details, namely showing off new content and abilities surrounding previously unannounced Disney franchises. Those franchises include heavy-hitting staples such as Frozen and Lion King, with Elsa and Mufasa making appearances, respectively.
