Square Enix rumored to reveal Kingdom Hearts 4 in early 2025
Square Enix unveiled Kingdom Hearts IV more than two years ago during its 20th-anniversary celebration, but updates on the game have been scarce since then. However, recent rumors suggest that more details about Sora’s upcoming adventure could be on the horizon, with a potential reveal as early as February 2025.
The speculation stems from a video by The Gamers Joint, where the host claims that Square Enix is planning its own showcase, with the first event possibly taking place in February. The rumored announcement for the event is expected to happen at the beginning of the month. The lack of major reveals from Square Enix at The Game Awards is also attributed to this rumored showcase.
Furthermore, the host expresses confidence in a re-reveal of Kingdom Hearts IV by the end of 2025. This reveal could provide insight into the current stage of development and, hopefully, a release date. The prediction is that when Square Enix decides to showcase the game, it will be approximately a year away from its planned release.
Aside from Kingdom Hearts 4, Square Enix’s upcoming release schedule looks relatively empty. Alongside the game, other notable titles include Dragon Quest I & II HD-2D Remake and Dragon Quest XII: The Flames of Fate. While the remake is slated for a broad 2025 release, the next Dragon Quest installment does not yet have a specified release window.
Based on the details from The Gamers Joint, it is possible that a reveal for Kingdom Hearts 4 could occur as early as February 2025 during Square Enix’s rumored showcase.
As with all rumors, it’s important to approach this information with caution. The reliability of The Gamers Joint regarding leaks is not well-established. Nonetheless, considering the current lack of known 2025 releases, it would not be surprising if Square Enix is saving its major announcements for its own event. Only time will tell if this rumor proves to be true.
