Kingdom Hearts is a franchise that has a huge fan base that has been eagerly anticipating the next game in the mash-up series from Disney and Square Enix. And while fans will have to wait longer to get the next installment in Sora and friend’s adventure, Square is re-releasing the original Kingdom Hearts game on PlayStation 3. Titled Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD Remix, the main draw for this title is the improved HD visuals and trophy support, a first for the series. Yet everything in this package is not solely the same experience long-time fans know from the PS2 days. This HD release comes packed with some extra goodies that fans of any of the games will surely appreciate.
The future could be filled with revived Nintendo DS classics. Hopefully it happens!
My kid yesterday proclaimed he liked the DS more than the Switch because the controls work on the go. Then I asked if he would rather have Monster Hunter Stories 2 on Steam or Switch and he chose Steam. So proud!
Kingdom Hearts is a monolithic franchise that needs little introduction. But the beloved franchise almost never was, being developed as a gamble that two ideas could merge into something great.
Kingdom Hearts had these potentials with really deep atmospheres, then KH2 happened with the overwhelming weird informations and different people with tbe same enitity thing. It became overcomplicated series and never explaining anything in one release. Overall it is weirdly structured. Moreover, it is advetised to have Final Fantasy and Disney with original characters. Now it is all about versions of Sora/his friends and on other hand the versions of Xenoheart/his XIII thing.

I'm cool with this game being made and all but where the hell is Kingdom Hearts 3? If they released that it would sell like hotcakes so I don't understand them being hesitant to do so.
I can't wait to play this series again in HD. The first game's intro was amazing. It is still my favorite opening cutscene of all time.
