It is hard to believe that a game that combines the worlds of Disney and Final Fantasy would worked. Yet after 17 years and over a dozen titles released in the series, Kingdom Hearts has more than proved doubters wrong as the newest, most ambitious game in the series is set for release on January 29th. Kingdom Hearts 3 has been in pipeline for sometime over at Square Enix and with the release date finally within sight, critics reviews have now began to surface. Here is the Review Round UP:
GAMEINFORMER 9.5/10: While not perfect, Kingdom Hearts III is the game I’ve been waiting for. After finishing it, I was delighted by how satisfied I was with the journey. I traversed worlds with some of my favorite Disney characters, persevered through challenging boss battles, and saw a triumphant finale that only makes me more excited for the future. The series still has a lot of heart, and that’s what makes it so endearing. Click here https://bit.ly/2CEesah to read the full review. GAMESRADAR 4/5: Whatever the flaws, there is nothing quite like Kingdom Hearts 3, and it's a wild, wonderful ride as a result. Name one other game where you can watch Elsa belt out Let It Go before hammering some monsters to death with a giant key. I'll wait. Click here https://bit.ly/2DwSrvI to read the full review. IGN 8.7/10: I thoroughly enjoyed Square Enix’s evolution of Kingdom Hearts’ gameplay and fidelity to Disney’s beloved animated movies. While the storytelling could use some punching up, Square has done a fantastic job of capturing the spirit of these worlds while giving us a massive toolbox for battles and exploration.

GAMESPOT 8.0/10: What sticks with me is the exciting battle against elemental titans with Hercules, taking Rapunzel out into the unfamiliar wide world for the first time, snapping selfies with Winnie the Pooh, and going toe to toe with Davy Jones. In 2002, as Sora, I left Destiny Islands to travel across the universe and make new friends. In 2019 I brought old ones home, and I had so much fun doing it.

POLYGON: Despite its reputation for complex story, its simple action and positive energy felt like an antidote to so many other RPGs of the past couple of decades. But Kingdom Hearts isn’t simple anymore; it isn’t just joy and bright colors and Disney heroes. Instead, the conclusion of this story is tangled up in so many conflicting threads, each one a heavy burden on its hero, whose smile now feels unnerving. Kingdom Hearts 3 is an example of what can go wrong when a series that once stood in contrast to its peers as a lighthearted alternative loses its way.
