This should keep fans busy as they wait for "Kingdom Hearts 3," which has no release date yet but is expected to be released March next year, a couple of months after the launch of "Kingdom Hearts 2.8 HD Final Chapter Prologue."

With regards to "Kingdom Hearts 3," the game remains to be the most highly-anticipated title in Japan. The legion of fans in the rest of the world would not be shocked about that at all.

Making it hard for these patrons is the lack of information about the game. Square Enix has promised to reveal more about "Kingdom Hearts 3" at the "right time" and it appears that this time is yet to come.

There are speculations that the delay of "Final Fantasy 15" from Sept. 30 to Nov. 29 could also mean delay for "Kingdom Hearts 3."

Square Enix is known for perfecting and polishing their releases before they put them out and with a game as big and as highly anticipated as "Kingdom Hearts," the company would not want any sort of misstep.
