Square Enix previously revealed a new mobile game for the Kingdom Hearts franchise as Project Xehanort with a contest to guess the final name. Square Enix eventually announced that it will be called KINGDOM HEARTS DARK ROAD and confirmed that it will be launching through KINGDOM HEARTS Union χ [Cross] (Free) which will be home to two full games. KINGDOM HEARTS DARK ROAD was scheduled to release in Japan and the West this Spring for iOS and Android. Today, Square Enix announced a delay for it beyond the Spring release window.
Development for KINGDOM HEARTS DARK ROAD has been delayed due to the current conditions across the world. Square Enix is planning an announcement early next month around the development of the game. If you’ve never played a Kingdom Hearts game, Square Enix recently released a big “All in One" package on PS4 and released all the collections on Xbox One. KINGDOM HEARTS DARK ROAD can be played without playing KINGDOM HEARTS Union χ [Cross] story wise and there will be a link campaign for current players of KINGDOM HEARTS Union χ [Cross].
