Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind

While the price might be asking a lot for a game that can now be purchased for significantly less on consoles - or even downloaded on Xbox as part of Game Pass! - whoever was in charge of the Kingdom Hearts III PC port has delivered not just a fantastic PC version of the game, but one that is sure to become the benchmark for Square Enix PC ports going forward - for good or ill.

Except for the open-ended ending, Kingdom Hearts III + Re:Mind succeeds in being a very good game and a proper conclusion to the long-running series. Longtime fans will see all of the lore finally pay off and many loose ends get tied up, since they are the only ones who can fully understand what's going on. The combat has been tightened up to the point that it feels almost perfect for action fans while not alienating longtime players. The Re:Mind content lets things down a tad, but it is otherwise a must-play title for franchise fans.

The colourful action-RPG contains a lot of Disney charm, yet sometimes overshoots its goal.

KINGDOM HEARTS III is a lot more demanding compared to the other releases here, and it understandably struggles to hit a locked 60fps out of the box on Steam Deck. With a bit of tweaking, that is possible though, and having native KINGDOM HEARTS III on a handheld with rock solid performance, is excellent. If you held off on the games on PS4 or Xbox One before, KINGDOM HEARTS III is a solid PC release that has no issues running on Steam Deck including its cut-scenes. I enjoyed my time revisiting it on the go.

For newcomers to the series, it’s a fantastic option because, obviously, you’re not gated by a hundred different consoles just to experience the story for yourself. It’s incredibly easy just to boot up one of the collections and get started carving your way through armies of heartless. For veterans of the series, it’s a great way to relive your childhood for the exact same reasons.

All in all, the Kingdom Hearts franchise coming to PC is something that fans have been looking forward to for a long time. Kingdom Hearts 3 is a great port that will delight both new and dedicated fans of the series. Whether it’s a worthy conclusion to the “Dark Seeker” arc will be in the eyes of the beholder, but playthrough-wise, Kingdom Hearts 3 is a great addition to any PC collection.

KH Forever Love this franchise Big Love Love Love Lovenxjdhshshzhxhxbxbxbxbx

this game was not the best but not the worst i likes the disney levels and the art style but WHAT THE HELL DID THEY DO TO SORAS FIThe looks like a emo disney kid

La mejor version del juego, pero sigue siendo un juego decente como mucho, la historia es mala y el gameplay no es lo suficientemente bueno para pasar eso por alto, sobretodo porque cada 3 minutos hay como 3 cinematicas seguidas, impidiendo ignorar la historia por completo y el dlc es literalmente algo que debio estar en el juego base, que lo vendieran por separado en la version de consola es una verguenza

This game is an oddity. It is possible with Re Mind to alter the combat system, turn up the difficulty and to find a satisfying action game experience. However, the base game combat has way too many cinematic auto attacks that take control away from the player at every other moment, making the game jump from cinematic to cinematic until the fighting is done. The game looks great and feels great and those two facts may mask how utterly simplistic and repetitive the combat is for some. I really enjoyed my time with this game but it required an entire expansion just to make my own fun which doesn't sit right with me. Also in case you're wondering KH storytelling is still hilariously terrible

The game is a 4 out of 10. RE:mind might bring it up to a 5 but I'll stick with 4. So disappointing.
