Wow, assuming it doesn't get delayed again this is about two years earlier than I thought square was capable of.

So, how long exactly have we been waiting for this by now? Not counting how far yet it will be delayed...

People have been expecting it to come since 2006, even though it didn't start development until 2013. The first game everyone thought was KH3 later turned out to be the prequel "Birth by Sleep", and "Dream Drop Distance" is practically the prologue of KH3.

It is around 2 years after 2.8's release, which contains 0.2 Birth by Sleep ~A Fragmentary Passage~, which like Dream Drop Distance is also partly a prequel to Kingdom Hearts III in both storyline and gameplay.

It also went through an engine change sometime in 2015 so its only been in development for around 3 1/2 to four years.

I love Kingdom Hearts to death, but I'm surprisingly not very upset about the delay. I was honestly sort of expecting it. At least I'll have time to finish FF12 Zodiac Age in the meantime (playing it for the first time, since I never got the game on PS2).

It's still coming out in 2018 though, if you think of the financial year Wink

Nomura said regarding the release date, "I'm sorry that we're asking for a little more time than initially planned."
