'Kingdom Hearts 3' Release & Trailer: Title Redeems Popularity, Ranks Seventh in Famitsu's Most Wanted Games

The anticipated game "Kingdom Hearts 3" regains its popularity after being in the Top 10 of Famitsu's Most Wanted Games.

There is no doubt that the fans of the "Kingdom Hearts" series are looking forwards to "Kingdom Hearts 3." Unfortunately, Square Enix has been so quiet about it that everyone is left in the dark as to when the game will arrive. The team keeps everything under wraps to the point of losing their upcoming title's popularity.

Last December, "Kingdom Hearts 3" did not make it to Famitsu's Top 10, Parent Herald reported. On the previous list, the title ranks eight but has fallen three spots down and settle at the number 11th spot while "Final Fantasy 15," which also came from Square Enix remained on the top 10 list.

There were speculations that Square Enix's silence about the release date of "Kingdom Heart 3" made fans lost their interest in the game. "It seems as if the wait for 'Kingdom Hearts 3' has actually hurt its popularity," GamingBolt reported.

However, there are also possibilities that the other games offer more exciting features than "Kingdom Hearts 3," which have gotten people to be a bit more excited about it than "KH3."

Following their decreasing popularity, the team became active in releasing trailers and updates about the game. It seems that, after all, they still want their fans to cling on the series and they were successful.

In a recent report from GamingBolt, "Kingdom Hearts 3" is back on the Famitsus's Top 10 Most Wanted Game. The anticipated title is at the seventh spot while "Final Fantasy 15" is next to the top spot. The highest position in the chart previously belonged to "Dragon Quest 11" but, this week, "Personal 5" for PS4 tops the chart.

Although "Kingdom Hearts 3" is back on the top 10 list, the report stressed that it was still not experiencing the same success it used to enjoy because it is still at the bottom of the list.

On a separate note, Latinos Health previously reported that Jim Cummings already confirmed Tigger and Pooh's inclusion in the game. In a conference, the "Darkwing Duck" voice actor disclosed that he had to "paraphrase the original Japanese script," which was a challenge for them to record the dialogue.

There were speculations that "Kingdom Hearts 3" might be released in 2017 but others were hopeful that the title would be available this year. Their argument: gamers rarely hire voice actors early in the development process so, more likely, the team is already in the middle or towards the ends of their development.
