Kingdom Hearts 3 is an action-RPG developed by Square Enix for the PS4 and Xbox One consoles. It is considered the third title of the Kingdom Hearts game series.

New details for "Kingdom Hearts 3" will feature a possible new trailer at E3 2016 and a release date at April 2017 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles.

Several rumors are making rounds that a new "Kingdom Hearts 3" trailer will be shown at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo event on June 14-16 as "Kingdom Hearts: Unchained X" producer Hironori Okiyama that gaming fans will expect more game details from Square Enix in the sequel, Neurogadget reported.

So far, no further explanation has been given as to what kind of details will the trailer contain as gaming fans keep on guessing if they will see Sora meet new characters from new Disney Worlds such as "Tangled" and "Big Hero 6" or feature some new gameplay action and possibly an official release date of the game.

The story of "Kingdom Hearts 3" will have Sora and the rest of his friends fight Xehanort and his Organziation XIII as game director Tetsuya Nomura stated in an interview that the latest instalment will conclude the "Darkseeker saga" within the "Kingdom Hearts" game series as gamers will continue the journey after the events of the last game "Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance".

Nomura added that the fight scenes from "Kingdom Hearts 3" will be "pretty frantic" and its getting even "crazier". Gamers might get to see more Disney worlds from several famous Disney movies such as "Frozen", "Wreck-It Ralph", "Toy Story", "The Jungle Book" etc. and even new Final Fantasy characters.

In other news, it seems that gamers will likely see "Kingdom Hearts 3" sometime next year as Square Enix revealed their line-up of video game titles for the fiscal year, which will end at March 31, 2017 and it will include "Final Fantasy XV", "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided", "Rise for the Tomb Raider", "World of Final Fantasy" and "Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue".

To much to the gaming fans surprise, "Kingdom Hearts 3" is not on the list along with "Final Fantasy 7" remake and "NieR", although Square Enix pointed it out that the line-up is not yet completed and will likely add more titles, PlayStationLifeStyle reported.

Several fans speculated that "Kingdom Hearts 3" could launch on April 2017 for the consoles, but Square Enix has not yet made a comment regarding the matter. Gaming fans will just have to wait for more details about "Kingdom Hearts 3" at E3 2016 next month.

"Kingdom Hearts 3" is speculated to be release on 2017 for the PS4 and Xbox One consoles.
