April 2 - With Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix + Re: Chain of Memories at last out in Japan, Tetsuya Nomura and crew can now devote all their energy to their next project. And that appears to be another Kingdom Hearts game, or at least another tie-up with Disney. But is it Kingdom Hearts III? Speaking with Japan's Gemaga and Dengeki PlayStation publications, Nomura gave a few hints on the new project, which he's previously hinted would see formal announcement later this year.

Gemaga asked if the characters who appear in the new CG "secret movie" that has been added to Final Mix are from the new title. "They are people who have some relation to the new series," said the producer. "However the next title won't just be Kingdom Hearts III. If it were III, we wouldn't call it a new series." Asked if Sora and Riku would make an appearance in the new game, he said with a laugh, "I can't say." He also hinted that the new game would have something to do with Xehanort, the main villain of the Kingdom Hearts series.

He was just as direct when Dengeki PlayStation asked for some details on the new title. "First, it's not Kingdom Hearts III. Of course, because we're calling it a 'new' series, it won't be KHIII. Also, it's a series, so it probably won't be just one title." Nomura once again promised an announcement of the new game, whatever it may be, some time this year. In the meanwhile, he suggested that players attempt to unlock the Final Mix secret movie and start imagining.

Since he's called it a "New series", do you think that it won't just be a CoM-esque bridge-between-games game, but an entire Kingdom hearts spin-off series?

Obviously there has to be a game to continue Sora's story, but apparently this new series is not the one to do so. So, we will have the continuation of Kingdom Hearts as we know it, Sora's Story, but then also a new series within the KH franchise that tells a different tale?

People assume that the game is going to be KH3, it's just not going to be called that, but from what he's hinting at, the new projects aren't just our "KH3" but a separate series of games within the KH universe entirely

They will stop concentrating on Sora. *Sigh* He indicated it.

Instead, this is going to be a little like the Final Fantasy series. I suppose.

Big difference is that all of the FF games aren't connected even remotely (except for them milking FF7 and the FFX and FFX-2 thing.)

This new series, I think, will actually be connected to previous KH games. O.O Stunning.

I wonder what the new title will be... I really have no clue. Do you think it will it still have the root name Kingdom Hearts, or will it be a new title entirely?

So it will be everything on Keyblade War past, it seems.

What would the SoraxRiku fans say? Heheh...

Sora and Riku will probably be in the game. He just doesn't want to spoil anyone.

He said in an interview that out of the 3 new characters there was at least one that had some sort of connection w/ sora > so i dont think the game is gonna go to far away from Sora > It will still revolve around Sora's story line but will be seen through the eyes of another character> one that will know sora eventually or who alrdy knows him

Can you provide a link where he said that one of the knights has a connection to Sora. Thanks

So... you're saying that 5 months ago when I was saying this I was right after so many people telling me I was wrong?

^He's working on that too. But in reality he really wants more KH. That's why he's going to quit FF.
