I had damn near forgotten that Square Enix was making Kingdom Hearts 4. I was starting to wonder if Square Enix had also forgotten Square Enix was making Kingdom Hearts 4. It's been total radio silence since the game's initial 2022 announcement—four long years with nothing but a three-minute reveal trailer to sustain the gaggle of eager fans (hi, it's me, I'm eager fans). Until now, that is.
The game made a very surprise appearance during today's Nintendo Direct, offering a brand-new 90-second trailer that'll hopefully keep me going for another four years. It's pretty in keeping thematically with the 2022 reveal—a gigantic heartless manifesting among skyscrapers in Quadratum (the Kingdom Hearts version of Tokyo, more specifically here Shibuya) while protagonist Sora does some of his classic airborne flips and tricks while flourishing his keyblade.
