The elusive Kingdom Hearts III actually showed up with a new trailer at the Kingdom Hearts Orchestra -World Tour- event in Los Angeles. As the game will not appear at E3 2017 this year, this will be the only time we will see the game before next month's D23 Expo event on 15 July where Square Enix promise a new world announcement followed with yet another new trailer.
The trailer shows off the game in its new current-gen Unreal Engine 4 coat of paint. Expect worlds of a considerably larger size and scope, meaning wider battlefields in which to do battle with the Heartless legions. You can see the team aid Hercules in battling through the classic forms of Heartless on series staple location Mount Olympus, along with what appears to be a new Drive Form for Sora that provides powerful crowd control abilities on his surrounding enemies. The familiar moves make a return, such as the Magnet abilities and diving from Dream Drop Distance.
A brief look at the game's story reveals interaction with classic Disney villains, Maleficient, Hades and Pete, as they discuss the location of a mysterious black box item while Sora squares off against Ansem and Xemnas in an attempt to bring back a certain old friend and familiar face of the franchise who should never have existed.
