Kingdom Hearts III Details Upcoming Free and Paid DLC, Includes Extra Scenarios

Waiting for "Kingdom Hearts III: Royale Edition". 😝

Square Enix couldn't milk FFXV anymore so they'll now milk Kingdom Hearts 3 to death with dlc. Square Enix is just a garbage dumpster fire company now.
I used to hope for a brand new Parasite Eve game but now I prefer to not have Square Enix Bastardize the last good IP they have. Knowing Square as they are now they will ruin PE just like they ruined RPGs for me with trash stories, boring character designs, and unfinished games full of episodic boring dlc padding used to milk fans for more money.
They'll probably throw in a little "augment your pre order" nonsense for good measure because why not.

They should probably just stop with the DLC. Still haven’t got round to playing KH3 after 10 years of hype because I knew fine well they’d do this sort of thing.

I'll take whatever new KH3 stuff I can get.

Good to know that they are working Final Fantasy seven full time.

If atleast 1 dlc adds a new disney world or a final fantasy world or radiant garden than I’ll happy buy all the dlc at once. If they don’t even add a full world I think I’ll skip them. Also hope the dlc is balanced, I am level 99, used a lot of stat boosts and use the hercules keyblade of which the formchange is pretty broken, would be a shame if I ruined the dlc for myself by being overpowered. (I know, I complain about a problem I created myself.)

Y'know, I'm a fan of Kingdom Hearts like a lot of other people

But, I gotta say, some of these names that Nomura goes with are just plain bleh.

I'm looking forward to it, but man, name it something else lol.

Episode Xion incoming.

@nessisonett Did you also refuse to play KH1&2 because of the eventual Final Mix releases? And refuse to play various FFs because of the eventual International versions?

@Matroska You’d think that after this long a development time they’d include this stuff on the disk. That’s Squeenix for you.

@nessisonett That's most companys in todays world sadly :/
Gotta milk that fan base you know

@darkswabber Honestly, I'd rather they did what needs to be done and rework the story to include FF characters or not use them at all. I loved the game and its story, but it had no good reason to remove a bunch of important characters from the story. Especially considering this the next numbered game after 2 and 2 had a lot of FF characters. A final mix that fixes this would be awesome. Sure, it should have been included at first, but they intended the game to just be without them, but they could use a final mix to fix the game since they clearly made a notable mistake.

Just include Final Fantasy characters. Need to see the end of Cloud & Sephiroths battle 👀

I got rid of it after Platinum... wasn't impressed, this isn't enough to pull me back.

I'll wait for a Switch version

@nessisonett it will be a crushing disapointment when you do. I had fun with it, but after all the waiting i expected so much more. So.many.cutscenes

As for reMINDed, i suppose it could be a flashback where you get to play previous game worlds? I will be shocked if olympus colliseum isnt added at some point either

yesss i cant wait

@malbhet DLCS are not enough milking for square enix, that's why for ff7 they're going to make it episodic so instead of selling you one complete game they're going to sell it to you 3 or even 4 times plus the dlcs!!! XD

@rjejr Seriously? Not that is going to happen.

@eltomo Don't expect any Switch version of this game soon.

I'm honestly a little surprised it's not called Kingdom Hearts 3.1

Doesn't bother me that they're doing DLC for this. Before they'd just do a Final Mix and make you buy the whole game again; unless you couldn't understand Japanese, meaning you'd need a decade long wait for that extra content in a remaster.

@Orpheus79V I agree with this, although I can understand the sentiment of thinking it should be there to begin with. I really do love KH3, but it's shorter length was quite a shock.

Still, I'd rather have DLC than wait for another Final Mix.

@Lino I can see Square selling Keyblades along with new skill sets to really screw people over tbh.

In theory it's taken more than 10 years for this game to be released because as stated in he first post just wait for the Kingdom Hearts 3 - Royal Hearts Complete Edition then your getting a full game. I bet 10 years ago this so called dlc was in the game but because it's been 10 years in development they just cut it out and give some free charge for the rest.

SE are joke or company now they all all gaming now is a joke milk as much money as possible for little in return that's entertainment.

@rjejr And after that some extra DLC.

@DerMeister It was average or longer for a KH game though? Maybe not every game needs to be 60+ hours? The only thing they felt missing in terms of content was the Olympic Coliseum.

Meanwhile Persona R is probably going to be a DLC with a 70$ price tag - sold as a new game and nobody will complain. I prefer the Square Enix way way of dealing with post launch content.

@Flaming_Kaiser "And after that some extra DLC."

But that DLC will be canceled so I won't have to worry about it.

@Custom1991 "Seriously"

No, I don't do seriously

@Jaz007 I would say it felt about 10 hours shorter than a typical KH. I was still at the 40 hour mark when it ended. KH1 felt longer, honestly. The worlds were larger and longer, but there was still fewer enough to shorten the game. I could forgive the lack of some side activities if we had more than what we got.

And I agree that not every game needs to be long, but not only is KH3 an RPG, it's also a conclusion to a storyline that started in 2002. I expect at least 60 hours from an RPG, so when I ended the game at around 40 hours, it was hard not to feel a little underwhelmed, and I can understand if anyone else feels the same, despite my enjoyment of the game.

@rjejr 😆 Or we get 50% of it.
