It's been 1,005 gruelling days since we've had close to any news on Kingdom Hearts 4, the next game in Square Enix's Disney-verse-spanning series, but director Tetsuya Nomura has finally given fans the smallest crumb to hang on to.
That's because Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep released on PSP 15 years ago today in Japan, January 9, and to celebrate the milestone, series director and infamous zip-lover Tetsuya Nomura wrote a commemorative message breaking down the spin-off's first teaser, originally included as a secret ending to Kingdom Hearts 2. The cutscene has the game's three heroes, clad in spiked armor, meeting in a dusty wasteland we now know as the Keyblade Graveyard, but Nomura explains that it actually ties into a larger series motif.
