Ruliweb: It's been two years since the first official announcement of Kingdom Hearts 3.

Nomura: Usually, most of the reactions from the KH fans and media consist of "Please put [this world] in the game!" (Laughs) Rather than comments on the game system itself, we get requests for "Put this world in, put my world in!" much more. Whichever world is a popular map should determine whether or not the masses will greatly enjoy Kingdom Hearts 3. Recently, we also received a significant increase in requests for the Kingdom Hearts 1.5 Remix and Kingdom Hearts 2.5 Remix to be released on the PS4. Unfortunately, we don't have any plans for that.

Didn't see any topics about this in particular. Kinda unexpected, would definitely buy them if they came to PS4.

 

[thedan001]

Welp, there goes my plans to play those on PS4, time to look for a used PS3

 

[Newtype-001]

(͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

 

[Madao]

just wait until their KH3 budget runs low...

 

[Weeaboosuke]

 

[NyMartin90]

oh well there's always hope in the future

 

[Magwik]

DDD stand-alone port it is

 

[NetMapel]

Didn't say anything about no plan of putting it on PC/Steam. Port confirmed !

 

[ShadowSwordmaster]

That is really unfortunate to hear.

 

[Kriken]

"We have been getting a lot of requests for product X, but we have no plans to make product X."

Maybe Nomura should talk to Inafune

 

[Hisoka]

Welp, guess that statement makes my Kingdom Hearts 1.5+2.5 HD Remix Collectors Edition more worthy to me than ever.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Didnt an "insider" said this was true though?

 

[kewlmyc]

If they were, do you think they would just tell a random interviewer?

 

[Snaku]

 

[-Horizon-]

):

 

[KeyChainDude]

Oh well, at least I did manage to survive the clusterfuck of different platforms the games where on, and played every single one of them. Story-wise I'm ready for KH3, even though I'd love to replay them all on the PS4. :/

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

Really Square? Out of all of the remasters, THIS is the one you won't make? The one that would consolidate over a decade of fragmented shenanigans known as the KH universe?

*sigh*

 

[Illucio]

I held off the PS3 version, and now that the PS3 is the Netflix machine I have no chance of ever playing the remakes. ._.

I need you PS4 port, your my only hope.

 

[SerTapTap]

The PS3 collection is pretty solid already. I wouldn't say no to even better IQ and the PS4's OS, but they're more than servicable.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

So i have to use a PS2 Emulator to get my HD fix... Good thing with that is i dont have to worry about a missing german dub.

 

[Sami+]

What the fuck, why :|

 

[Reset]

I'm sure they will release it, I'm expecting either the PS4 ports to show up next year or a DDD HD port for the PS3/4.

 

[Lord of Castamere]

I'm hoping that's just PR speak, because he wants you to buy it on PS3, or the PS4 remaster is planned to start development after DDDHD. Money just sitting on the table. Don't be stupid.

 

[The Last One]

That's unfortunate, at least the Ps3 versions are incredible.

 

[Mr. Nice_Guy]

Honestly kind of surprised. Did it not sell well enough on PS3? I was holding out on buying 2.5 because I assumed SE would do this.

 

[FelipeMGM]

Yes it will

Spoiler

Pls Nomura

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Really Square? Out of all of the remasters, THIS is the one you won't make? The one that would consolidate over a decade of fragmented shenanigans known as the KH universe?

*sigh*

They did make one........

Its called 1.5 and 2.5

Check it out.

 

[Kriken]

Real talk though, "We don't have any plans for that" isn't a definitive "this will never happen" Their plans can change between now and whenever KH3 is released

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

Really Square? Out of all of the remasters, THIS is the one you won't make? The one that would consolidate over a decade of fragmented shenanigans known as the KH universe?

*sigh*

Its weird to me that this is not coming. They rereleased that FF10 remaster on PS4 too. And another FF remaster is coming with 12. But Kingdom Hearts fans get the middlefinger i guess.

 

[Vaughngief]

But that's the one people want. Not another port of Final Fantasy X/X-2.

 

[Jigorath]

I doubt he's lying. Oh well. 1.5 and 2.5 are fine on PS3.

 

[Son Of D]

"We don't have plans to release 1.5 and 2.5 HD on PS4, but we plan on releasing the KH Ultimate ReMIX Collection on PS4 with DDD included."

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

They did make one........

Its called 1.5 and 2.5

Check it out.

Can we stop with this? People obviously want this remasters on their new Console. Not on a PS3 or Amiga.

 

[Rats Off To Ya]

That's a shame. I'd double dip in a heartbeat.

 

[Frozenprince]

Its weird to me that this is not coming. They rereleased that FF10 remaster on PS4 too. And another FF remaster is coming with 12. But Kingdom Hearts fans get the middlefinger i guess.

Par for the course then.

 

[Tagg9]

Honestly surprised they wouldn't just outsource this to someone and rake in the dough.

I purposefully didn't buy 2.5 ReMIX because I assumed it would be ported to PS4.

 

[Blood Boal]

Me too .

 

[Kalor]

I'm kind of surprised that they have no plans for it at the moment but I bet we will see it at some point.

I held off on buying 2.5 as I was expecting a PS4 version but at this point I don't see myself going and playing through Kingdom Hearts 2 and Birth by Sleep on the PS3.

 

[Toki767]

I bet Nomura wouldn't even know if they were doing it or not.

 

[Inuhanyou]

I'm hoping that's just PR speak, because he wants you to buy it on PS3, or the PS4 remaster is planned to start development after DDDHD. Money just sitting on the table. Don't be stupid.

They already went through the effort of porting almost every game to PS3 in two packs, and it took years and resources. Even though i really find it unfortunate, Nomura's only plan from the start was to get most of the series on a recent console.

He also said recently that there will be 'something' planned to get new KH3 players up to speed, so who knows what that is.

But for those looking for the games themselves, might want to invest in a PS3

 

[WhiteRabbitEXE]

So Xbox One is likely out too. Dumb. Looks like I'm not getting KH3.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

Honestly surprised they wouldn't just outsource this to someone and rake in the dough.

I purposefully didn't buy 2.5 ReMIX because I assumed it would be ported to PS4.

I skipped both because i thought i would see them on PS4/Xbone some months later...

 

[The Last One]

It's definitely true I guess, not some PR talk. He was answering a non related KH HD question, so no reason to lie.

 

[DNAbro]

I bet Nomura wouldn't even know if they were doing it or not.

honestly that's what I'm hoping. Square is just doing it and not even bothering to tell Nomura cause he's got other things to do.

 

[Dereck]

Cool, now people can stop telling me that they're "waiting out" for the PS4 version, eat it.

Spoiler

People are gonna keep referencing it anyway

 

[Rymuth]

(͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Context?

 

[Oswen]

That's literally...the only remaster which made sense to port over.
Oh well.

 

[JumPeRJumPzZ]

So Kagari and others were lying... cool

 

[pizzacat]

He probably doesn't want to sell the whole collection all in one disc

 

[Lord of Castamere]

Screw that . If they don't want my money, fine. Youtube can help refresh me just as easily.
