Summary
A reliableKingdom HeartsYouTuber has revealed datamined information from last year’sMissing Linkbeta that indicates it’ll have more than 20Disneyworlds, although it’s still not clear how they’ll work.
Over the years,Kingdom Hearts fans have had to get very used to long periods of silenceregarding the series. That being said, it’s never felt like more of a drought than in thetime since Missing Link and Kingdom Hearts 4 were revealed, as Square Enix has given uspretty much no new information in more than three years.
While the wait for Kingdom Hearts 4 is painful enough on its own,it’s even more strange with Missing Link considering it’s been delayed multiple times over despite being playableon a few separate occasions. While we’re still waiting for an official news drop for the game, dataminers have been plugging away at its May 2024 build and have found some very interesting things.
Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link Datamine Suggests It Will Feature “A Lot” Of Disney Worlds
Jury’s Still Out On How Exactly They’ll Work, Though
The latest leaks for Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link were shared by KH YouTuber TheGamersJoint, who decided to clear the drought a bit by sharing some information that comes from sources who are currently datamining the game. The most interesting thing revealed from the datamining is in regards to Missing Link’s Disney worlds.
It’s previously beenconfirmed that Disney worlds are going to make an appearance in Missing Linkdespite the focus on GPS gameplay, but we’ve had no information about how they’ll work. TheGamersJoint suggests that there are “beyond 20” worlds in the game’s beta files and that, if they all get added to the game, it’ll have “possibly one of the best world lineups in Kingdom Hearts”.
TheGamersJoint didn’t reveal anything about which worlds might appear and it’s not clear how they actually work just yet, but he did suggest that some of them might be more involved than just themed combat arenas. It also seems likely that they’ll be added to the game over its lifetime, rather than just chucked in whenever the game launches.
The datamine also uncovered Treasure Dungeons that can be explored for loot, while sadly confirming a Weekly and Premium payment plan for the game. One step forward, one step back.
If the datamine is correct (and TheGamesJoint seems confident it is, since he’s aware of some of the worlds included), then it could go some way to explaining why Missing Link is taking so long, as the team is clearly plugging away at it. We’ll know for sure when more information is officially shared, but it’s a nice bit of excitement for a series that really needs some news right now.
