What is Square Enix’s Kingdom Hearts?
Kingdom Hearts is a well-loved series of action role-playing games created by Japanese game designers Tetsuya Nomura and Shinji Hashimoto. It was developed and published by Square Enix as part of a collaboration between Square Enix and Disney, tied together under the leadership of Nomura, a longtime Square Enix employee. Disney has also recently announced plans for a similar gaming universe in partnership with Epic Games.
It’s based in a fictional universe but features various Disney properties. The series is centered on the main character, Sora, and his journey and experiences with some familiar faces from Disney IPs, as well as some from Square Enix properties, such as Final Fantasy, The World Ends with You, and Einhänder.
There are also various original characters and locations created specifically for the Kingdom Hearts series.
As well as shipping 36 million copies worldwide, Kingdom Hearts has sparked a wide variety of related merch, from soundtracks and action figures to companion books and a collectible card game.
