Insider Leak: Kingdom Hearts 4 Release Window Revealed

[erickaslmnert]

Renowned insider Midori recently divulged significant details about the highly anticipated Square Enix title, Kingdom Hearts 4, including a potential release window. After a noticeable absence from various gaming showcases in recent years, fans have eagerly awaited news on the next installment of the beloved action RPG series. While official updates on Kingdom Hearts 4 may still be forthcoming, Midori's latest leaks offer fans some insight into when they can expect the game.

Despite being one of the most prominent JRPG franchises, the Kingdom Hearts series has remained relatively dormant since the release of its third mainline entry in 2019. Apart from a few mobile titles and the 2020 rhythm-based spin-off Kindgom Hearts: Melody of Memory, fans have experienced a scarcity of Kingdom Hearts content compared to previous console generations. The most significant update from Square Enix about the franchise came in April 2022 with the announcement of Kingdom Hearts 4. Since then, however, both the game and the series as a whole have remained largely silent.

Fortunately, Midori's recent tweet sheds some light on the situation. According to her, Kingdom Hearts 4 is "currently planned" for a release sometime in 2026. Additionally, she notes that KH4's logo has undergone some changes since its initial reveal, though she reassures fans that it's "not bad." Midori concludes her post by hinting at more information about the series' future being revealed at a later date, without specifying when.

Based on this information, it appears that the release of this Square Enix RPG is still quite distant, and any updates on its progress may not come anytime soon. While the prospect of Kingdom Hearts 4 arriving in 2026 may disappoint some fans, they can take solace in the knowledge that the game is expected to be available across multiple platforms. Square Enix previously announced plans for an aggressive multiplatform strategy, ensuring that the title will reach a wide audience.
