Kingdom Hearts 4 gameplay trailer confirms Switch 2 and simultaneous launch across all platforms

Kingdom Hearts 4 crashed the June 2026 Nintendo Direct with its first-ever gameplay trailer, and Square Enix confirmed a simultaneous launch on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC. The last trailer dropped back in 2022, so fans have been waiting nearly four years for any real look at the game.

The new footage shows Sora fighting Heartless in modern-day Tokyo, specifically in Shibuya, with a noticeably more realistic visual style than previous entries. The action combat looks fluid and grounded against the city backdrop. Worth noting: the Nintendo Direct cut of the trailer didn't mention the other platforms, but the version Square Enix posted to their official YouTube channel confirms the full platform lineup and the simultaneous release. No launch window was given.

Kingdom Hearts 4 was first revealed in 2022 and had gone almost completely quiet since — fans spent years dissecting screenshots for any new detail. Its appearance at a Nintendo Direct felt like a genuine surprise, especially given the series' historically PlayStation-heavy identity.

There's still no release date on the table, so the wait isn't over. But at least now players know what the game looks like in motion and where they'll be able to play it.
