An unlikely union between two gaming powerhouses may have been accidentally outed by EB Games Australia. While the placeholders have since been taken down, Twitter user SuperMetaldave64 pointed out and featured screen caps of the alleged product.
The image shows Kingdom Hearts 3 box art on the Nintendo NX. It also bears a 2017 release date. Kingdom Hearts 3 does not currently have a set release date (and neither does the NX). The Kingdom Hearts series has typically been a PlayStation only title, aside from some spinoff games on earlier Nintendo consoles.
Neither Square Enix, Disney or Nintendo has released any information to confirm or deny this rumor.
What do you think? Is this a plausible title? Let us know down below.
Thanks to paidenthusiast for the tip!
No. I don’t see it happening. If it does, cool I guess.

Your minimum wage is like 17+$ an hour isn’t it? In the US ours is 8 something. You guys don’t really pay much more then we do the exchange rate on your currency is simply different. In Japan people pay 10,000 yen for stuff. It’s sounds like alot but it’s not lol.

No way in hell is Kingdom Hearts III going to be exclusive to a Nintendo console. I doubt the relationship between Nintendo & Square Enix has become THAT good in the last 5 or so years. And this isn’t like Bayonetta 2 where Platinum Games, an indie developer, was practically begging for someone to fund the project. Now a timed exclusive might not be too far fetched, though.

He’s wrong. It’s only listed for PS4 and XBox One, not for NX. Go to the site and see for yourself.

Sora will soon get decoupled from Disney as Kingdom Hearts will be over and hopefully a new chapter without Disney will start.
Disney inked that deal and they need the upper hand because they see Universal closing the gap. There’s already a renovated Hulk ride, and Spiderman was redone not too long ago. Plus why would they want to promote a product they don’t have their hand in anymore?
Now their focus is Nintendo.
