After seven years since the last game was released (and almost 13 since the last in the main series), Kingdom Hearts III is finally here and it's a jumbled, beautiful, perplexing hot mess… but it's also an entertaining one.

Going to new worlds instead of rehashing old ones… again

Expecting someone to play every game to get the plot

 Kingdom Hearts III is an amazing yet flawed game made for the most die-hard fans of the series. While newcomers can still enjoy the quick-paced gameplay, the extremely complicated story will surely leave them bewildered.

The Kingdom Hearts series debuted back in 2002 as the very unorthodox mix of Final Fantasy and Disney, a mash-up nobody even knew they wanted. Now 17

Happy to get this for my brothers birthday he was over the moon

It has been just two months shy of 17 years since the first Kingdom Hearts burst onto the scene and fans have been rabidly awaiting this latest instalment, which has been hinted at and glimpsed since way back in 2006.

Nearly 20 years of waiting. I’ve moved on, but Kingdom Hearts hasn’t. While a competent title. You can breeze through a lacking amount of worlds and story within 20–30 hours. There is some side content, there seems to be something lacking.

I really didn't know what to expect when I started Kingdom Hearts III. I'm a huge fan and completed every game in the series, but I knew there was zero chance of it actually living up to its long wait.

Everything about Kingdom Hearts III is simply joyful and fun, and the whole time I was playing, I was being transported back to my childhood. The pin is good quality, and the decorative disc case is super cool (the disc originally comes in the standard case, but you won't even need it with this...

Kingdom Hearts may be a bit niche but fans should feel somewhat satisfied with this ending to the Xehanort saga. It may seem short and easy at times but the story is solid and the graphics are breathtaking. Really looking forward to what Nomura-sama does next with the franchise

After waiting over thirteen years, Square Enix has finally given us the third major chapter in the mega-popular Kingdom Hearts series. Technically the thirteenth entry in the series' seventeen-year run, Kingdom Hearts III serves as the epic conclusion to what series director Tetsuya Nomura refers to...

Satisfying story that wraps up most of the plots set up over seventeen years, featuring several epic and character-based moments; gameplay takes the best elements of each title and combines them for a great gameplay experience; music and voice acting is among the series' best; world selection is...

Almost entirely incomprehensible without playing the other games; in order to set up more stories, some plot points are left open; mild frame rate lag; some of the new gameplay features are forgettable; Game & Watch-style LCD minigames are an entirely pointless inclusion; almost no Final Fantasy...
