Way to easy and does not hold up to its prequels. It’s a fun game if you’re looking for slasher style games with a boring storyline

Very very VERY DISAPPOINTED. We waited so long for this. WE WERE ROOTING FOR YOU, WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU!

This game is alright if you enjoy cutscenes more than gameplay. I would wait to see if the game goes on sale or gets decent DLC before buying into it.

Mechanics stale after about 2 hours, story continues to get as convoluted as it ever has been, it didn't make me want any more KH.

Story is absolute nonsense. Gameplay is fine last third of the game is just terrible.

Played all the kingdom hearts games and I feel that this one didn’t feel right, like something was missing, couldn’t even finish it .

Only true Kingdom Hearts fans will enjoy this. Boeing gameplay, nonsensical story, and it ignores Final Fantasy characters entirely.

Game is great and came in a timely manner. The problem is I preordered it as a Christmas present. The game did NOT come with the limited edition poster that was the bonus for preordering. So it was pointless to pay full price in December for a game I could easily get anywhere. It would have worked out better if I just got it on release day vs. Best Buy having my $ for months. No sale, no bonus. Will not do again.

Ruined a great franchise. Had so much hope after waiting for so long for a sequel and it didn't live up to it

I enjoy the KH games but this story ends in such a convoluted mess that it's hard to really feel like it was worth the money.

Really cool visually, but I felt empty afterwards. It's the junk food of games.

Waiting for quit a while. did not enjoy this for me and my fandom, but my young nephew did.

Expected much more from this but it was repetitive and poorly written.

No issues except that I had a chip on my case. Other than that it appears to be Kingdom Hearts III

They focused on all of the wrong aspects of the game and ended up with a jumbled barely playable mess.

Waited too long for nothing. It’s a shame that this game was very meh.

How is it posible to eliminate everything related to Final Fantasy!! Story was crap!

This has to be one of the worst games ever released. The gameplay is so simple that a toddler could beat it on proud mode. The story is so dumb and tries to be complex when it is really just a mess. I should have just taken my 60$ and burned it, bought a ps4 to play this and ended up just playing my copy of RDR2, an immensely better game.

2 Stars because the second game was wayyy better...

I’d give Kingdom Hearts III a generous 5.5/10. Definitely wait for the Final Mix to come before buying this game as it’s like FF15, half completed and hella easy. Sure, KH3’s graphics and scenery are absolutely stunning. And sure, the music is absolutely amazing! However, beyond that, it is an honest let-down and disappointment in the story/plot, in character development, and in playability. It just feels rushed and uncompleted (ironic for a game 5 years in the making). For starters, Square Enix cut MANY things from the game. Tetsuya Nomura stated that there would be well over 90+ hours of content, when in actuality; it’s closer to 35 -45 hours of content. You literally spend 2/3's of the entire game traversing Disney worlds and goofing around which none of it matters in the slightest and doesn't really do anything at all to progress the plot or the characters (Note: you can clearly tell which worlds they spent far more time and resources on than others. Some worlds, only get one tiny little area). On that note, the worlds that people actually wanted to fully explore in all their 4K HD glory were basically reduced to just backgrounds for cut scenes and for the plot (Realm of Darkness, Land of Departure, Keyblade Graveyard, The World That Never Was, The Mysterious Tower, The Final World, Scala ad Caelum, and to a lesser extent, Twilight Town). Then, all the major plot points and major stuff happens quickly and almost back-to-back in the last 1/3 of the game. Before you know it, you're fighting the final boss out of the blue and the game is over. Heroes and Villains fly in and out of the story so quick that you just might miss them if you blink. The reunions of 1) Aqua, Ven, and Terra; and 2) Axel, Roxas, and Xion; are completely rushed and lack any substance or playability. Basically, those characters are brought back at the last minute for fan service and to make sense of the plot before moving on. Hell, don't even get me started on the characters. The dialogue exchange and voice acting is good in certain places, but is often just cringy and awkward. Many of the characters don’t even have much of a personality *ahem*…Kairi *ahem*. Speaking of which, the characters: Kairi, Lea, Riku, Aqua, Ventus, Terra, and King Mickey in KH3 are basically weak, useless, and need constant saving. The only exceptions to this are Roxas and Xion who will completely win the fight on their own and heal you without you (the player) having to do anything. In fact, the Disney characters in the worlds you visit are significantly more powerful than the KH3 characters are. Minigames are another problem. Minigames are supposed to be fun and enjoyable challenges that offer additional rewards when added to a game for optional playability. However, that's not the case when multiple minigames are pushed into the main story and are required to progress said story. Furthermore, Square Enix made the game insanely easy, even on hard mode. Fights required little-to-no planning or preparation. I never even died once on hard mode or had to retry an encounter. Going to attractions, I understand that attractions were supposed to be cool and epic, but not when you get like three prompts for an attraction every single bloody fight. It got annoying and boring rather quick. I only used the meals once, in the final battle. I didn’t even need to use the meals because everything was too easy. Lastly, the game mechanics are still clearly broken. You can still easily button-mash X/A to win the game. Also, a player can obtain 99 Moogle Post Cards within 1 hour for only 5,000 Munny; they can easily obtain level 99 within an hour; and they can easily and quickly get 999,999 Munny. *sighs* Look, it’s an okay game. It’s fine to like a game and it’s fine to dislike a game. There are many people who liked KH3 and many who didn’t. It has good and bad qualities. However, you do have to recognize and realize all of its flaws and shortcomings. Because many of us who are long-time hardcore KH fans and who grew up with the series will tell you, KH1 and KH2 are significantly better/longer than KH3.
