Legendary Japanese games director and JPRG artist Tetsuya Nomura is thinking about retiring in a few years, and Kingdom Hearts 4 could be his last game.

A Kingdom Hearts mobile game collection could keep fans updated before Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link and Kingdom Hearts 4 eventually release.

Kingdom Hearts 4 is bound to have new worlds inspired by recent Disney films, and one movie could be a fun callback to the first game.

One of the co-creators of Kingdom Hearts may be considering retirement after the eventual release of Kingdom Hearts 4, ending a legendary career.

Tetsuya Nomura has declared that he may retire before finishing Kingdom Hearts, but it sounds like Kingdom Hearts 4, at least, will end properly.

After 22 years and a whopping 18 games, Kingdom Hearts 4 will finally move the franchise's story towards its conclusion. Speaking to Young Jump and translated by Automaton, co-director, co-writer, and lead artist on Kingdom Hearts 4 Tetsuya Nomura said the game works as a jumping on point for new players following the events of Kingdom Hearts 3 but will also shift the overall series narrative towards its end.

Kingdom Hearts 4 is being developed with the intention of the series "being a story that will be completed". That's according to series director Tetsuya Nomura, via a new interview with Japanese outlet YoungJump.
