It’s been a rough few years for Kingdom Hearts fans, between being stuck in limbo on the mobile game Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link and quite literally not a single piece of update about Kingdom Hearts 4 outside of that reveal trailer. The bigger questions now, unfortunately, has to do with the health of the Kingdom Hearts franchise at large. Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link was first announced in April 2022, as a geolocation role-playing game that would track users’ location in the real world — along similar lines to Pokémon Go or Monster Hunter Now. The larger problem here is that it’s been five years since we’ve had a Kingdom Hearts game, the biggest gap the series has ever seen since it started — and still not even the remotest idea of when we might see Kingdom Hearts 4. But at the very least, it’s a rough time to be a Kingdom Hearts fan, as there’s now very little in sight for the foreseeable future.
