![]() ![]() Unreal Engine 4 looks great but after last week’s announcement that Unreal Engine 5 is now available to all, fans were wondering if Kingdom Hearts 4 would be developed in this new engine. We see some shots of what appear to be actual gameplay and now, we know this reveal was running in real-time in Unreal Engine 4 thanks to a new report from Famitsu, as translated by Video Games Chronicle. Sora attaches the charm to his Keyblade, and a unique lightsaber is summoned.Set in the Tokyo-like Quadratum, this trailer shows Sora waking up in an apartment before he charges after a massive heartless causing chaos in the inner city. Luke: “May your heart be your guiding key.” Luke gives Sora a starbird charm, and the two exchange phrases: Palpatine blasts lightning at Sora and Luke, Vader saves them both.īack on Endor, Sora comforts Luke for Anakin’s Jedi funeral. Palpatine tells Luke to kill Vader, Luke refuses - “I am a Jedi, like my father before me.” ![]() Similar to the film, he ravages Vader, cutting his arm off. Then Vader threatens to kill Sora and turn Leia to the Dark Side. Palpatine blows Luke back to where Sora is being chocked. Palpatine cackles as Luke is blocking his lightning. After you reduce the health bar, Vader disarms Sora, and starts Force chocking him. The fight has you deplete Vader’s health, but the cutscene has Vader absolutely kicking Sora’s ass. The fight is absolute chaos - magic and the Force at their most feral. ![]() Then Palpatine tells Vader to deal with Sora. Luke kicks Vader down the stairs as he did in the film. Palpatine welcomes Sora, as just like Triton and the gods of Olympus, Palpatine knows of the reality Sora is from, and the nature of his magic. Sora fights his way to the throne room.īy the time Sora arrives, Luke and Vader are already dueling. After destroying a Star Destroyer, he breaks through a flank, leaving an opening for him to land on the station. Sora, in an X-Wing, participates in the offensive on the second Death Star. Heartless Sith cultist/acolytes rise from the darkness.Īfter a huge battle, Sora learns Luke went to face face the Emperor and Vader alone. The Heartless show up, they are empowered by the amount of death and chaos, and they pull power from the history of the realm. Sora, along with Rebellion ground forces, take on the massive Imperial garrison. Luke teaches Sora about the Force, Sora teaches Luke about magic. He sees the good hearts of Luke, Leia and co, and they recruit him into the Alliance to Restore the Republic. It leads him to the massive battle at Endor. The best plot I can think of is Sora senses a darkness unlike anything he has felt before: the Sith. Sora should definitely help Luke, but he should not outright replace or alter the events of his character development. Sora should not meddle and take the spotlight from Luke, Vader, and Palpatine. If they can keep the theme the same, but basically just add Sora along to help in the background, it would be appropriate. Kingdom Hearts is about friendship, but Star Wars is about the most important theme of all: I really hope Square respects the core of Star Wars. DC and Marvel would likely be the only other IPs with a similar level of freedom. It has laws of the universe where you can do almost anything in its reality. Star Wars would by far be the most realistic/comprehensive IP ever put into Kingdom Hearts. Outside of those conversations, insisting on intellectual honesty is indeed rather pedantic and unnecessary. It's not fine in conversations that do impact or even cover those realities, and it's in those conversations where your statement is actually necessary. This is fine in circles where there's no real impact on social/economic/political realities or personal relationships, such as this thread about Star Wars and Kingdom Hearts - it's more of a game, a gamble, than anything worth fretting over as far as "intellectual honesty" goes. It's a common social agreement that folks will argue as if they're right until proven wrong, and will assume that everyone else is operating the same. It's the same with the word "theory" - we all know that what we call "theories" are actually more like "hypotheses" or educated guesses, but we ignore that because "theory" sounds better. Intellectual honesty is typically implied/assumed in theory-crafting, as is the agreement that nobody's minds have to be changed in conversations about theories. ![]()
