Kingdom Hearts 3 release date rumors: concert reveals more about upcoming title's gameplay; Sora's Keyblade teased

Kingdom Hearts 3 Official webpage

Kingdom Hearts players are eagerly awaiting the release of the next installment in the franchise and while Disney and Square Enix have been quiet on that front, there are some tidbits as to the gameplay making their way to fans. 

"Kingdom Hearts 3" in on its way and the voice actor for Kairi and Xion recently dropped some spoilers about the storyline in the upcoming title at the recent concert for the game in Tokyo, Japan, on March 10. 

The voice actor actually delivered some lines from the saga during the concert, confirming that Kairi and Lea are in training to transform themselves into keyblade masters, and that there's more to come on Sora as well as Xion, who is trying to remember two people dear to her heart.

It's possible more teasers for the saga could come at future celebratory concerts as IBTimes reports that concerts are set to take place in the U.S. and the U.K. soon. 

And interestingly, game director Tetsuya Nomura has shared a little more about the gameplay during MAGIC 2017 in which he shared that Sora's Keyblade could turn into a bazooka or crossbow, although the transformation depends on the attack and defense mode being employed by Sora.

Nomura also stated: "It should be noted that similar to the Keyblade that transforms into a tank and shield ... there is not always a division of attack and defense," according to Gematsu.

Disney and Square Enix have yet to confirm the release date for "Kingdom Hearts 3" and it's not expected any time soon.  For now, fans have to settle for the anniversary game compilation "Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX" coming to North America on March 28 and Europe on March 31, with a special PS4 theme available as a pre-order freebie.

When it does finally arrive, the game will be available on on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles
