Kingdom Hearts 4's 2027 release may miss PS5 disc production cutoff

notebookcheck.net

Square Enix and Disney set Kingdom Hearts 4 for late 2027, but a delay could push it past PlayStation's January 2028 disc production cutoff, risking no physical PS5 version. The D23 trailer showed Sora in Coco's Land of the Dead, confirming progress after seven years in development. Sony plans to stop new PS5 discs by early 2028, with only pre-deadline titles getting restocks, though exceptions remain unclear. Square Enix reports only 10% of sales are physical, and Final Fantasy 7 Revelation may skip discs. Xbox and Switch 2 versions face similar digital shifts, with a Game-Key Card possible due to file size.
