Game to get upgrade to Unreal Engine 5 and more details
When Kingdom Hearts IV comes out, the visual quality of the game will improve a lot thanks to Unreal Engine 5.
The footage featured in the announcement trailer ran in real-time using Unreal Engine 4. So it reports the Famitsu.
According to the report, the development team is still testing an Unreal Engine 5 version in parallel.
Famitsu writes: “The full game will be developed with Unreal Engine 5, and the quality of lighting and details will be several notches higher.”
Kingdom Hearts IV will continue to be developed by the Osaka-based studio, led by co-director Yasushi Yasue. The same studio was responsible for Kingdom Hearts III.
It is still based on Verum Rex, which is a fictional video game in the Toy Box by KH3, according to franchise director Tetsuya Nomura.
Kingdom Hearts director Tetsuya Nomura has revealed that he is considering developing a real-world game based on Verum Rex – a fictional video game set in the world of Part 3’s Toy Box. However, Kingdom Hearts IV is set in the alternate world of Quadratum.
Nomura would have liked to develop a Verum Rex as well as a Quadratum game. However, he chose a quadratum game as it would have been too difficult to develop two games at the same time.
According to Square Enix, Lost Master Arc will tell an epic new story. The world of Quadratum is billed as “a large, sprawling city set in a beautiful, realistic world unlike anything seen before in the Kingdom Hearts series.”
