i think the wild card for me is honestly not kh4 or 7r3 but 14 8.0 and w/e CS2's game is(if its the same game they hired for back in 2019) i have weird gut feeling 8.0 might not be summer 2027 for some reason but we'll find that one out in april's fan fest at least

yea remember you talkin about iicon so that a big possibility. the scary thing about kh is if the timing matches up they dont mind it showing up anywhere like kh3&orchestra trailer instead of their e3 show. i think for me the tossup is w/e lands on that q1 slot so summer is where schedules clearup

no matter what we have to see it by d23 this year since thats like a bi yearly event so i cant fathom them missing it even if its late 2027 otherwise i think we have bigger probs imo.
February 16, 2026 at 2:23 PM
yep, im more optimistic! even if it just a simple update from devs before SGF itd be cool to see. we might even get some info on 7r3 as well since epic/unreal
February 13, 2026 at 1:12 AM
oh shit it seems like its more industry/dev focus since the tickets are like 2200$ but hopefully we get to see public keynote stuff
February 13, 2026 at 1:08 AM
regarding iicon has there been a new trailer for studios there before? but yea ppl forget that kh3 showed up at some random cons alot(lucca con). so even if isnt the full rereveal you can never rule out them pulling a kh3 and showing concept art or nomura screenshots

it seems like this one has a bit more legs at least b/c the last one was fucking midori LOL

im trying to think of it in nomura pov since the man named birth by sleep from the bulletin board system + the other story themes. so im guessing "Revue". keeps the the 2 syllable theme, means review for the "lookback on the whole story as a whole" but also from the theatre theme that 7r feels like

even w/o the leaker reputation, just saying any leak involving "using the remains of missing link" is like a red flag to me. "yes sure.. they are reusing the assets of a mobile gps game w/ seperate zones and no real level/combat design encounters in a remake of a game w/ unique world assets... sure"

god one aspect i see in that mod thats really cool and totally what kh2 would do that ddd or kh3 doesnt do i think is how sora transitions from the flowmotion spike down to a finisher

im so curious on how nomura and his team are gonna translate "realistic" heartless designs in 4 based on that screenshot since even in 3 while there are realistic textures in pirates world heartless, the silhouettes/movement are usually very readable

the other 1 i hear is the datalog crit. was gushing to some1 about how ch12 eden backdrops are like the midgar prerendered stuff in 7r to sell the scale and they just randomly jump in."im like bro i understood the story in fucking middle school and i was stupid to read the datalogs wtf are you on"

it has the energy of these dragon ball images its so good

he dyed his hair for charity which was really cool to see!

dude i know they got a dedicated color key artist since season 2 but holy shit the colors are popping like so good this season!!!!
December 20, 2025 at 4:35 AM
its not as public but you also had the forspoken main director, kh3 battle and level director on 16 as well if you check the credits, so it had a stacked upper level staff from SE internal as well

one of my favourite quotes from sakaguchi to nomura was on kh1 and its like bro sakaguchi would trust nomura so much
December 20, 2025 at 3:41 AM
its also why kh4 is so exciting since this is the 1st time in a long while since 358 where another writer is included with nomura and oka. ishibashi being included in 4 means 4 gonna feel very diff like 358(kanemaki), kh2(nojima), and 1/CoM(watanabe)
December 20, 2025 at 3:26 AM
also its really cute that he did all the instagram style posts, i really find that adorable haha
December 20, 2025 at 3:23 AM
yea 358 was his most hands on,also nomura on record w/the ultimania has always been upfront why he doesnt do "main writer" credits and has been very transparent its a collaborative process where he does the outline>another writer like oka for kh3 does the initial script> then he does the final check
December 20, 2025 at 3:20 AM
what gege and yuji managed to pull off in a insanely short run time is amazing. not just this week but the whole backstory w/ the simurians, dabura's character being totally different from initial expectation, the crisp art. its so good.
December 14, 2025 at 3:44 AM
more ppl need to talk about that game. kyohei suzuki the battle director was a battle designer on kh3, planning director on recoded and was part of the ff7r prototype team w/ mitsunori takahashi(kh2 battle director) before endo took over

i wish thats what missing link was. just instead of a gps mobile game world map its like generated map like ReCoM or P3's tartarus. you do msq stuff in scala>do astral plane/disney world arena/labyrinth. it wouldve been so doable since most of CoM's msq is in white hallways too
