[01/05] Tetsuya Nomura Expects New Kingdom Hearts Announcement Soon

[C i d]

The Kingdom Hearts 3D Ultimania guide book is out today, and it has the expected interview with series mastermind Tetsuya Nomura.
A brief summary at FF Reunion reveals that the interview contains a teaser for the next entry (or entries) in the KH series. Nomura says that they've started making a variety of movements for the new title(s) in the series. He believes they'll be able to make an announcement pretty soon.
The interview also contains some of those obnoxious "censored" comments, where little bits are blocked out. If you can read Japanese, here's what FF Reunion wrote:

• 〇ー〇〇○〇解放には〇〇○〇を仕込んだ
• 〇ー〇〇○〇メッセージについては想像にまかせる
• 〇の〇〇〇のはそのままあの〇人かについてはお楽しみに

Nomura also said that there are no plans at present for Birth By Sleep 2 or a "Final Mix" version of KH3D. Square Enix previously released updated "Final Mix" versions of Birth By Sleep and Kingdom Hearts II.

[03/05] Nomura teasing impending Kingdom Hearts announcement

Nomura teasing impending Kingdom Hearts announcement

Tetsuya Nomura has teased a massive announcement for the Kingdom Hearts series coming pretty soon following the launch of Dream Drop Distance back in March in Japan.

​

In the Kingdom Hearts 3D Ultimania guide book, Nomura said in an interview the Osaka studio behind the series had started making progress towards a new title or titles in the series. He added he hoped to make an announcement soon.

That sounds an awful lot like E3 o’clock, boyo? The LA show is now just four weeks away.

On a Final Mix version of Dream Drop Distance for 3DS, Nomura said nothing was on the books regarding one despite there previously being an FM version for Kingdom Hearts II and Birth By Sleep on PSP.

“Maybe in a few years, but no plans for it right now. The Osaka team is really busy,” he said.

Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance arrives in the west for 3DS this July.

Thanks, Andriasang and GAF.
