What is Kingdom Hearts?

Originally released in 2002, Kingdom Hearts shouldn’t have worked. Combining the mature themes and designs of Square’s Final Fantasy RPGs with the cutesy, family friendly fun of Disney, Kingdom Hearts still sounds bizarre, but somehow, it landed. Nearly two decades and a dozen games later, Kingdom Hearts is a massively successful franchise with multiple games in the pipeline. However, up until now, the series has primarily lived on the various incarnations of the PlayStation, with the occasional spin-off game on Nintendo or mobile.

What we know about Kingdom Hearts for PC

Divided up into four titles, the Kingdom Hearts for PC collection will be available exclusively on the Epic Games Store.

The first title, Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5+2.5 ReMix is an HD remastered collection that includes:

The second title, Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue is a collection that occurs between Kingdom Hearts II and III, and includes:

The third title, Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind (DLC). This title features everything in the original release of Kingdom Hearts III, as well as the Re Mind DLC adventure and a brand new Epic Games exclusive Keyblade, Element Encoder. This game concludes the Dark Seeker Saga which began in Kingdom Hearts I and features many familiar worlds from previous games, along with new adventures in the worlds of Frozen, Tangled, Toy Story, and Monsters Inc.

Lastly, the fourth title, Melody of Memory is an action rhythm game set just after the Kingdom Hearts III DLC. This game invites players into Kairi’s memories of the events of previous games, while also laying the groundwork for the next entries in the series. Featuring over 140 different tracks from both the Kingdom Hearts series and Disney, Melody of Memory lets you play with four different teams of characters from the franchise, along with a variety of Disney characters who lend a helping hand along the way.

What we want from Kingdom Hearts for PC

While all of these games have been released on previous consoles and mobile devices before, this is the first time they will all be available for PC. Epic Games has already announced the inclusion of an exclusive new Keyblade for Kingdom Hearts III, but adding on a few more extras like this would make sense. Otherwise, we’d like a smooth gameplay experience, and perhaps even a simultaneous release for future Kingdom Hearts games, so PC players don’t have to wait years to enjoy them.

Kingdom Hearts for PC release date

All four of these titles can be preordered from the Epic Games Store now and will be available on March 30, 2021.
