Although it has been raining quite heavily since then Kingdom Hearts IV was announced in April 2022, these last two years do not make us optimistic about new developments. In a pivotal year for Square Enix, with a radical change in its exclusivity policy, the next round of conferences was highly anticipated. But everything points to something that is almost inevitable Summer Game Fest 2024 It will not feature trailers or gameplay of a new title in the franchise.
So here it is Jeff Keighley himself was keen to point out in his recent stream, answering a variety of questions about this seal, which will bring together the most important events in the video game industry for the rest of 2024, as well as the future. There were many who asked about them Kingdom Hearts, a saga that’s coming to Steam for the first time in just a few days. But half surprised, but willing to be sincere, he broke all illusions of his chatter.
It all happened in the middle of the stream, after talking about the importance of indie titles at this Summer Game Fest or the huge importance of their conferences in terms of not only showing trailers, but also a lot of gameplay that brings us closer to the actual gaming experience. On this, he wanted to dwell not on any specific issue, but on all of them globally: “I see a lot of questions… There is a lot of interest in Kingdom Hearts, I don’t know why“.

“I think it’s because of what we did with Final Fantasy VII: Rebirth last year, or something like that. But people should prepare for “failure”. You’ll have to keep waiting“Kayley continued by inviting us not to expect any news on this matter this year. Or at least not for Summer Game Fest, when Square Enix can reserve the bomb for later in 2024.
Doubting Geoff Keighley’s credibility ahead of Kingdom Hearts 4 at Summer Game Fest
As he points out in his reply, it was Geoff Keighley himself He also wanted to cheat Final Fantasy VII: Rebirthto finally boast and admit that the rumors were true, revealing new images of Square Enix’s new title. So there are quite a few who think, and rightfully so, that he could have done the same.
Although it is not official, many insiders have revealed it Kingdom Hearts 4 will arrive in 2025. So, while it’s too early to show off in all its glory, after those two years of waiting, Summer Game Fest could be a great stage to whet your appetite. There are a lot of things that seem to be changing in the franchise and we all want to see more. Maybe a little trailer announcing the release date. And already in December, during GOTY 2024, they will show good gameplay as one of the bombshells of the gala.
So we’ll have to wait to see if he’s being honest this time, and really, we won’t be seeing anything new Kingdom Hearts at Summer Game Fest. Or if he tries again to make someone forget about such a possibility and announce the bomb live again.
