After all these years of waiting, the game you've all been eagerly anticipating is here: Final Fantasy Versus 13. It's been stuck in development hell for so long now, everyone thought it was never going to be released, but it's very real, and...wait, hang on, I think I'm getting a bit mixed up here.

The Sephiroth boss fight in the first Kingdom Hearts is still one of the series' toughest, and it turns out his voice actor hasn't managed to beat it.

The rumor mill is churning, and one of its latest suggestions is one of those concepts so obvious it’s difficult to believe that it hasn’t happened before: a Kingdom Hearts movie.

I'm not sure I believe those Kingdom Hearts movie rumours, but if one does happen, I'm begging, keep it simplehttps://www.vg247.com/kingdom-hearts-movie-keep-it-simpleOisin KuhnkeWed, 01 May 2024 15:16:24 +0000https://www.vg247.com/kingdom-hearts-movie-keep-it-simpleDisney Interactive StudiosSony Computer EntertainmentKingdom HeartsSingle PlayerRPGThird personSony Computer Entertainment EuropeSquare EnixFilm & TelevisionAction AdventurePop culturePS2

As they do, every once in a while, there are some rumours floating around at the moment about a Kingdom Hearts movie. Both The DisInsider, who generally typically shares details about behind-the-scenes go-ons at Disney, and Daniel Richtman, a supposed industry insider, have claimed a film adaptation of Kingdom Hearts is potentially in the works, though nothing has been greenlit just yet. I've not heard of The DisInsider before this, though I had heard of Richtman, and it seems like in both cases their records are spotty at best, so I'm not placing any bets just yet.

If Kingdom Hearts ever gets a remake, it needs the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth treatmenthttps://www.vg247.com/kingdom-hearts-remake-needs-to-copy-final-fantasy-7-rebirthOisin KuhnkeSat, 06 Apr 2024 15:00:00 +0000https://www.vg247.com/kingdom-hearts-remake-needs-to-copy-final-fantasy-7-rebirthDisney Interactive StudiosSony Computer EntertainmentKingdom HeartsSingle PlayerRPGThird personSony Computer Entertainment EuropeSquare EnixAction AdventurePS5Final Fantasy VII RebirthPS2

When you look at everything that came after it, the original Kingdom Hearts sits in a bit of a weird place compared to the rest of the series. It's the first game in a long-running series that didn't entirely know what was coming next, and from its sequel Chain of Memories onwards the vibes were completely different. I still love it a lot, it's as equally charming as it is frustrating, and because it's so different from the rest of them it feels special.

“Yoko Shimomura didn’t have to go this hard” – the bewildering history of the Weather Channel’s hardest trackhttps://www.vg247.com/weather-channel-storm-alert-theme-2016-interviewConnor MakarMon, 04 Sep 2023 14:16:45 +0000https://www.vg247.com/weather-channel-storm-alert-theme-2016-interviewDisney Interactive StudiosSony Computer EntertainmentKingdom HeartsSingle PlayerRPGThird personSony Computer Entertainment EuropeSquare EnixAction AdventurePS2

The music of video games is wonderful - an art form in and of itself. Over decades, composers have been blessing games with numerous bangers, sweeping orchestral tracks, and powerful OSTs that have captured the imaginations of gamers forevermore. However, one especially catchy track that could easily find a home in your favourite JRPG doesn't come from a video game at all. It was created for The Weather Channel back in 2006, for storm alerts.
