We just had a thread for new world ideas. Still alot Disney ground to cover before they run out. Not to mention revisiting old worlds.
That's a good point.
They've pretty much done all of the Disney Renaissance movies (Pocahontas isn't ever getting a world lol) and the 'big' classic movies (The early Princess movies, Peter Pan, Alice and Wonderland, etc). There are some early/mid 00s movies that would make good worlds like Treasure Planet or Princess and the Frog. Moana will definitely make it in and maybe even Zootopia but eventually the well is going to run dry even if they recycle worlds. Also I feel people are forgetting that while Disney has a lot of animated movies, not all of them would make good worlds for a video-game.
Yeah and a lot of those suggestions just flat out aren't happening. Disney uses Kingdom Hearts as a marketing platorm as well as a license for merchandise. They aren't going to put stuff like Treasure Planet or stuff from the 90's cartoons in there. They could probably get 8 worlds, maybe even 10, in KH4 or whatever the next game is called. But then you're basically spent in terms of marquee films to give worlds too. They have to start being judicious with how they use the Disney properties because eventually you're going to run out. It's not just "insert famous Disney movie" it also has to work from a thematic and gameplay perspective. The Aristocats doesn't work from a gameplay perspective or a narrative one, for instance. The Rescuers is both too old and too niche, they don't even market it themselves why would it be licensed out for a high budget gaming property?
There's a lot of thought and approval processes that have to go into the selection process.
With the success of Aquaman, now is a good time to put Atlantis The Lost Empire as a world, do it Square, you cowards.
Regarding the regular Verum Rex teaser, not the secret ending - did anyone else think about that hilariously low rent FFXV mobile CG when not-Stella was bundled offscreen at the end?
It did serve as a reminder that even if Nomura did get to realise his 'true vision' for Stella, she'd likely not be treated much better than Luna or Kairi despite all of the fan dreams from the first teaser.
Luna got fridged in v13 so...yeah.
Finally got to watch it. Sora is in TWEWY Shibuya and Riku is in Verum Rex, correct?
Hopefully this means we will see more SE worlds and original stuff because while I do like the Disney worlds I think Nomura can do more interesting stuff outside of that with non-Disney worlds. And I also hope we wont have to wait years for the next KH...

Starting to think, like TWEWY, Shibuya/Tokyo is a place for people who are dead. Sora is possibly dead, as is Yozora and possibly the MoM. Riku is there because he is Sora's dream eater, and the whole place is in Kingdom Hearts
Its the same place
Its the same place

Guys, Verum Rex = VR
The next game will be Kingdom Hearts VR.
Just kidding, that secret ending was awesome. The next game better have more real Final Fantasy characters though, not just the Verum Rex guys.

Are you sure? That Citadel-looking building is that something found in TWEWY or IRL Tokyo? Because I don't rememeber a building like that in TWEWY.
Kairi: Now it's my turn to fight for Sora/protect Sora.
Riku: Girl, I'm already killed myself to find him, catch up m8.

Yes, its in Shinjuku. Both it and Shibuya are wards in Tokyo.
Its more than just Shibuya here.
I think it's the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building located in Shinjuku.

Just caught up with that secret movie.
I'd imagine if Square wanted to emphasise that Sora and Riku ended up in the real world, they'd actually attempt to get the rights for the actual Shibuya 109 instead of settling with TWEWY's 104. I like the theory that Square and Nomura are potentially leaning into video game properties too with a new installment.
Also damn, that leak Sora and Riku being transported to Shibuya was real, lmao. Seemed so wild at the time but it actually happened.

Yes TMG building in shinjuku. You can even see it from Shibuya in the trailer.

It's the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building fam. Located in Shinjuku.
Also not surprised that the tower on the KH3 box art resembles the NTT Docomo Yoyogi building which is also located in Shinjuku.

no it isn't
the man is a creator and reallyreallyreally wanted to see his vision come to fruition

I can't believe how hard they leaned into the mobile entries for KH3, I have to imagine a huge percentage of players are confused as hell by a large part of the ending.
So Nomura is taking the Verum Rex thing seriously. I just thought it would be a cool little thing Visual works did to pass time or whatever. Like the character concept thing they did. This is interesting and I'm excited to see where it goes. We're going to have to wait a long time XD. Wonder how FF7 Remake is doing, excited to see how that is shaping up.
Just watched the secret ending online.
Man, if this is leaning into what I think it's leaning to, this is going to be very fascinating.
Sora, Riku and Yozora teaming up to go into even more varied worlds? Other video games for instance?
If they actually have them travel to somewhere like Spira, I'm gonna freak out.
But now I'm wondering why Riku is here, after Sora made it all clear in the end that he had to go at it alone.
I guess Riku just can't let anything happen to his...totally platonic good friend.
Also, I love how this makes the Toy Story world even more vital to the overall Kingdom Hearts lore and story.

I definitely think DLC, perhaps 2 worlds or 1 world split in 2 parts. One playable as Sora and the other as Riku.

I remember Nomura saying that KH3 can't happen without Toy Story. I never really paid much mind to that until now.
I've never seen the tower burn yoyogi is inbetween shinjuku and Shibuya, that's some next level shit
It is not exactly Somnus but it is definitely made to sound like it. Just like Yozora is Not!Noctis
It isn't Somnus, but it sounds very similar. I think the first piano note at the end when the camera pans up from Riku is the same as the first note in Somnus.
Doesn't mean he has to force it on an entirely different game just to realize his crushed dream. It's too much. He needs to get over it.
If we ever see "a fantasy based on reality" used in something relating to the next game, I'll lose my shit.
That was unexpected even for a secret ending. I don't know... maybe the MoM wants something from the world of Verum Rex, so he created it through the book of prophecies? Also, it's not like the entire next game has to take place in it. Might just be one world out of many just like before.
Finally entering this thread because I finished the game.
Before playing KH3, I thought I was going to be done with KH after 3 (in a sense that I won't be this hype/invested for the future)
But after watching the Epilogue/Secret Ending... boy was I wrong.
Nomura just won't let me go.

Yes, my favorite part of the Versus vision, when Stella thanked Noctis, Sora, Donald and Goofy for helping her.
