Fans rejoice! Kingdom Hearts III finally has a release date

Mere minutes ago, the Kingdom Hearts official twitter account revealed the release date for Kingdom Hearts III at long last. The game will be arriving in Japan on January 25th, 2019, with a world-wide release on January 29th, 2019. The game will be available on both PS4 and Xbox One.

Fans, who have been living in constant fear of possible delays, have been waiting ages for this moment. Though it didn’t have the grand reveal that perhaps people were expecting, it was a surprise to say the least. The four day gap between the Japan and world-wide release comes as quite a surprise, as it was expected to have a simultaneous release.

The Kingdom Hearts twitter account followed up a few minutes later with this:

We’ve announced the release day for KINGDOM HEARTS III ahead of E3 at the KINGDOM HEARTS Orchestra -World Tour-. I’m sorry that we’re asking for a little more time than initially planned. Please look forward to other information, including a few trailers at E3. Thank you – Nomura
