Kingdom Hearts III launches January 29, 2019 for PS4 and Xbox One

Square Enix announced during their Kingdom Hearts orchestra concert in Los Angeles that Kingdom Hearts III has experienced a slight delay than the original intent, and it will be arriving on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on January 29, 2019. Meanwhile, in Japan, the game will launch 4 days earlier on January 25, 2019.

The news comes from a pre-taped video by director Tetsuya Nomura who shared the unfortunate news with the audience in attendance at the Performing Arts Center in Los Angeles. Be that as it may, with a crowded fall season ahead of us, maybe that could turn out to be a good thing for the company.

Tetsuya Nomura has also stated that multiple trailers for Kingdom Hearts III will be shown over the course of E3 2018, so we can look forward to additional footage in the coming days. For now, we know Ratatouille is confirmed for the game - though we don't know whether that means a world or a Remy summon at this point.

You can bet we'll have all that here on our site, so be sure to check back!
