In a new interview posted on Game Informer, Tetsuya Nomura has been asked how much will the Disney characters and worlds be important in the next entry in the series. The game’s director confirmed that there will be Disney worlds, but the fourth entry in the series will generally feel slightly different from the previous games. Apparently, the increased specs and better visuals of Kingdom Hearts 4 limit the number of worlds that can be created for it. In the same interview, Tetsuya Nomura was also asked about the lack of Final Fantasy characters in Kingdom Hearts 3. According to the series’ creator, the Final Fantasy characters were originally added to the first entry in the series due to the limited amount of original characters in it, which stopped being a problem in the following entries in the series. Still, the development team is aware of players wanting to see more Final Fantasy characters in the next entry in the series, and they are trying to find a good balance for it. Kingdom Hearts 4 is currently in development for yet-to-be-confirmed platforms. A release window has yet to be confirmed as well.
