\"Kingdom<\/a><\/p>\n

When is Kingdom Hearts 4<\/a> coming out? Next year, if you believe some particularly optimistic copy published by a variety of Australian retailers.<\/p>\n

In their product listings for the newly announced<\/a> Kingdom Hearts Collection 1-3<\/a>, both JB Hi-Fi<\/a> and EB Games<\/a> included text alluding to a 2027 launch for the latest game.<\/p>\n

The text was identical across websites and has since been edited, suggesting this information came directly from publisher Square Enix itself.<\/p>\n

It said:<\/p>\n

\u201cPlay through the full Kingdom Hearts series in one comprehensive package before the release of Kingdom Hearts 4 in 2027. Enjoy the complete saga at a newly accessible price point, making it the ideal entry for newcomers and a definitive edition for returning fans.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s worth mentioning that we haven\u2019t been able to find this paragraph at any retailers outside of Australia, so it may simply have been written by a local department in error.<\/p>\n

And looking at the latest trailer for the Disney mash-up<\/a>, which is a bit janky and unrefined, it doesn\u2019t feel like this game is coming out soon.<\/p>\n

But I suppose it would make sense for the publisher to get this collection out in advance of the new game, and I guess this could all mark the start of Square Enix starting to promote the series again.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not optimistic about Kingdom Hearts 4 coming out next year personally, but I hope I\u2019m wrong. I could use a hit of this notoriously kitsch series right now, and I\u2019m even considering revisiting the originals on my PS5 with this new collection.<\/p>\n
