Kingdom Hearts Franchise Future Teased

Will Kingdom Hearts III mark an end to Disney's hit trilogy, or the entire franchise? Find out the truth now.
Square Enix have today elaborated on details regarding the future of their Kingdom Hearts fantasy video game franchise. The latest entry in the series, Kingdom Hearts III, takes place in succession to the events of last year's acclaimed 3DS title Dream Drop Distance, with protagonist Sora teaming up with Riku for a final time to resurrect the souls of lost heroes in preparation for an almighty war against the Hearts of Darkness.

Will this epic finale mark a climax for the franchise, though? Apparently not. Here's what the franchise's creator Tetsuya Nomura had to say on the matter: "There was never a plan. As a core game, this is finally the third, and 10 years have passed. I couldn't call this a trilogy. There have been so many spin-offs. In Kingdom Hearts III, the battles that the characters have been fighting for the past 10 years will come to a conclusion. That's the plan. But the series will continue. Only the particular enemy that they have been fighting for 10 years will come to an end."

Kingdom Hearts III keyblade-slashes its way onto Xbox One and PlayStation 3 in 2014.
