Here is a brief wishlist of worlds we might prefer to see in Kingdom Hearts 4.
It has been some time since Sq. Enix has launched any type of full replace relating to Kingdom Hearts 4, so in the meanwhile followers of the franchise are largely left to rewatch the reveal trailer and scour for any particulars the builders have offered within the time because the trailer…however sadly, these particulars are scarce. A improbable technique to fill the time is to theorize on what Sq. Enix may very well be crafting for the sport, and this after all opens up ideas on what worlds they may have licensed Disney properties for this time round. When pondering on this, there is a record of properties that come to thoughts instantly that I might like to see in Kingdom Hearts 4, which I’ve listed beneath.Â
The Incredibles
This one is so easy to me that I’m prepared to fully ignore the truth that Disney may additionally license using Marvel characters in favor of the very best superhero film ever created (in my view), The Incredibles. I feel the graphics updates that Sq. has applied for Kingdom Hearts 4 (based mostly on what we have seen thus far) can be nice to see utilized in The Incredibles setting, and truthfully it is a purely egocentric ask contemplating this film is in my Letterboxd 4 Favorites.Â
Atlantis: The Misplaced Empire & Treasure Planet
It looks like in recent times Atlantis: The Misplaced Empire and Treasure Planet have actually began to get the love they’ve at all times deserved (or possibly it is simply that extra folks my age are being vocal about their opinions on these films given they each launched at key ages in our developmental years), and it is for that cause I am placing the 2 of them collectively in their very own class. It is actually about time these two films acquired a bit extra of a following behind them and using them to their full potential by together with them in Kingdom Hearts 4.
The Emperor’s New Groove
Yzma looks like the kind of Disney villain that’s good to be inserted into the large image of Kingdom Hearts’ narrative – regardless of the Kingdom Hearts 4 narrative could also be – and The Emperor’s New Groove’s setting has at all times been a favourite. Attending to discover the hills and Kuzco’s palace would supply an excellent selection in a singular world, so it is a nice possibility for a location the place a number of completely different massive narrative facets happen, like how Olympus has served in earlier video games the place a brand new side of the map is explored upon every return.Â
Gargolyes
You possibly can’t take a look at the Gargoyles cartoons and inform me that the distinctive heartless designed to match a Gargoyle’s world’s aesthetic can be improbable, however what can be even higher can be the designs for Sora, Donald, and Goofy. This one looks like a particular lengthy shot, however you possibly can’t fault me for hoping.Â
Star Wars
That is type of a bonus, and when you take aside the trailer shot-for-shot as many have achieved on the web within the years because the trailer first debuted, we might have already seen a glimpse of a Star Wars world within the recreation. Placing Star Wars within the recreation is sort of assured to drive further participant curiosity within the recreation, and Sq. Enix would profit from making the most of one of many largest franchises ever created. Whatever the time interval within the galaxy far, far-off we might see, a Star Wars world would undoubtedly be a whole lot of enjoyable, and most significantly the keyblade rewarded would seemingly be one of many coolest ever designed for Kingdom Hearts – lightsaber keyblade? Say much less.
Haunted Mansion
That is one other one which looks like a protracted shot, however the spooky world of Halloween City has at all times been a fan-favorite. Whereas I would not thoughts to see Halloween City return, I additionally suppose a Haunted Mansion world may present some nice aesthetic design alternatives for Sq. Enix, and the mansion itself would supply loads of enjoyable facets for the builders to play with for degree designs and boss fights. Aesthetically, I additionally suppose Haunted Mansion would offer nice design inspiration for the world’s distinctive heartless designs.Â
