This has led to speculation that we could get new KH4 details or even another trailer.<\/p>\n<p>Kingdom Hearts 4 Confirmed for Tokyo Game Show<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"576\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/kingdom-hearts-4-logo-4k.jpg\" alt=\"Kingdom Hearts 4 Logo 4k\" class=\"wp-image-2079142\"  \/>Screenshot: Square Enix<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The official Japanese Square Enix website has confirmed that Kingdom Hearts 4 will be at Tokyo Game Show 2026, which runs from September 17\u201321. The site <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jp.square-enix.com\/tgs26\/en\/\" id=\"https:\/\/www.jp.square-enix.com\/tgs26\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">specifically lists<\/a> KH4 as part of the company\u2019s game lineup for the event. Naturally, this has led some fans to speculate that we could finally get another update on the game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, it should be pointed out that Square Enix has not confirmed that we will be getting new Kingdom Hearts IV details at TGS. While the official site lists the games that will be featured in some form or another, it doesn\u2019t specify in what capacity. For example, Kingdom Hearts 4 might simply be showcasing the Coco <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en\/article\/kingdom-hearts-4-release-date-coco-world\/\" id=\"https:\/\/www.vice.com\/en\/article\/kingdom-hearts-4-release-date-coco-world\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Gamescom demo<\/a> again, which debuted last month.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"576\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/square-enix-tokyo-game-show-2026-lineup.jpg\" alt=\"Square Enix Tokyo Game Show 2026 Lineup\" class=\"wp-image-2092897\"  \/>Screenshot: Square Enix<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All this to say, we should keep our expectations tempered here. Still, the fact that Square Enix is listing the game as part of its Tokyo Game Show lineup in any capacity is exciting news. Even if it just ends up showing the previous trailers, there is always a chance we could get a small update. Personally, I\u2019m hoping we finally get a Kingdom Hearts 4 release date!<\/p>\n<p>Will Kingdom Hearts 4 Get More Updates This Year?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"576\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/Nomura-Reveals-Why-Kingdom-Hearts-4-Has-Fewer-Disney-Worlds.jpg\" alt=\"Nomura Reveals Why Kingdom Hearts 4 Has Fewer Disney Worlds\" class=\"wp-image-2089265\"  \/>Screenshot: Square Enix<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Interestingly, Kingdom Hearts IV director Tetsuya Nomura recently seemed to imply that we might not receive major updates about the game very frequently. In an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.famitsu.com\/article\/202608\/85668#google_vignette\" id=\"https:\/\/www.famitsu.com\/article\/202608\/85668#google_vignette\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">August interview<\/a> with Famitsu, Nomura explained that if Square Enix revealed another Disney world, it would \u201crun out of things to show\u201d by the time the game launches in 2027.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe revealed some worlds at the showcase the day before the panel, so some people were expecting us to announce other worlds at the panel, but if we announced them at such a rapid pace, the information would run out very quickly before release (laughs).\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While this doesn\u2019t rule out a TGS update, we should probably keep our expectations in check. That said, Nomura went on to tease future updates about the game in the same interview: \u201cWe will have another opportunity to introduce [Kingdom Hearts 4 worlds] again, so please look forward to future updates.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"576\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/new-kingdom-hearts-4-screenshots.jpg\" alt=\"New Kingdom Hearts 4 Screenshots\" class=\"wp-image-2081950\"  \/>Screenshot: Square Enix<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Tokyo Game Show quickly becoming one of the industry\u2019s biggest events for RPGs, it would be the perfect place to reveal another Kingdom Hearts 4 update. Nothing has been confirmed just yet, but Square Enix\u2019s official lineup has at least given KH4 fans a reason to tune in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Square Enix has revealed that Kingdom Hearts 4 will be featured in its Tokyo Game Show 2026 lineup&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":86088,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[8,16222,16223,54661,4936,52,16225,36511,9831],"class_list":["post-86087","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tokyo","tag-japan","tag-kingdom-hearts","tag-kingdom-hearts-4","tag-kingdom-hearts-iv","tag-square-enix","tag-tokyo","tag-tokyo-game-show","tag-tokyo-game-show-2026","tag-waypoint"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86087","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=86087"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86087\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/86088"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=86087"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=86087"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/japan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=86087"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
