Kingdom Hearts IV PS5 PlayStation

Sora, the spiky-haired protagonist of Square Enix's Kingdom Hearts series, has briefly surfaced to congratulate fellow spiky-haired protagonist, Cloud Strife, on the (largely) successful launch of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

This is a cute thing that Twitter accounts will occasionally do, especially when operated by the same publisher. Still, we have to say, that apocalyptic vision of Tokoyo's Shibuya Crossing with Sepiroth emblazoned on every screen? Pretty sick. We've heard virtually nothing about Kingdom Hearts IV since it was revealed back in 2022. Still, The concept of Sora and the Heartless crossing over into a modern realm inspired by our own is intriguing, and we'll be fascinated to see it implemented and put into action.

Kingdom Hearts IV will be the fifteenth instalment in the series and begin the all-new "Lost Master" story arc. You'll also probably need to play this mobile game to have even the faintest idea of what's happening. Are you diving into FF7 Rebirth this weekend? Were you surprised to see Sora surface today? Let us know in the comments section below.
