Now that there are only a few weeks left until the final release of the awaited K Hearts 3, Tetsuya Nomura, his live show, seems more open to talk about the difficulties of his development. Among some of them that were found there was even a change of graphic engine, which according to him, was a decision that was not taken by the development team, and that caused the process to be delayed more than desirable, as we have seen all these months.

Fortunately, you can breathe easy starting next January 29th, when the game arrives on PS4 and Xbox One.

This KH3 is the result of a long development work on the part of Square Enix and its main responsible Tetsuya Nomura who once made the launch of KH2 Final Mix in Japan in 2006 started the whole process that would result in what would be the twelfth installment of the Kingdom Hearts series. In this last edition they decided to retake some of the characteristics of the videogame present in previous editions in addition to expanding the universe of characters that appear in the game being the choice of these characters one of the processes that most time the team in developing
