'Kingdom Hearts 3' release date, news, rumors: special prologue may be home to hints for upcoming title

(Facebook/KingdomHearts)The special prologue for "Kingdom Hearts" is said to have hints about what to expect for the franchise's third installment

Most of the plot and gameplay for "Kingdom Hearts 3" remains a mystery to the numerous fans waiting for the game to be released, but recent reports suggest that there may be hints toward knowing the title deeper within the special prologue chapter.

Tetsuya Nomura, famed game director and producer of the hit franchise, recently shared that "Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue" will have Easter eggs that fans may want to discover. Given this revelation, a lot of gamers are now trying to unravel the purported secrets which could lead them to understand how "Kingdom Hearts 3" will be.

Nomura hinted that Sora, the main protagonist, will have to be watched closely because even Sora's movements might have something to tell about "KH3." The skies will have a hidden message as well but fans will need to line up three illustrations to see how time changes through the skies' shifting flow.

The franchise is known for holding many mysteries which are difficult to crack by most players. However, the gaming world is still very much interested in what Sora has to say and what new challenges and adventures will be available for fans to explore.

It has yet to be revealed which new characters from Disney and other networks will be added but speculations are hot on the heels of "Frozen 2." Olaf is a widely-requested name, as well as the Arendelle sisters.

Some also suggest that content from "Star Wars," "Toy Story," and "The Jungle Book" may be included in "Kingdom Hearts 3." While these are exciting bits of reports, it is best to wait for Square Enix's official word regarding new content.

Meanwhile, it seems that a number of Japanese players are still very much interested in the arrival of "KH3" while some gamers from other parts of the world are losing their concern over the installment since there is not much known about the game's development. On the other hand, the special prologue has raised awareness about the title once more and fans are slowly starting to show invigorated interest in the upcoming game.

"Kingdom Hearts 3" is slated for release sometime 2017 for the Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
