Oh Mickey, you’re so fi ne 1 Olaf should make the game’s Frozen sections a laugh riot. 2 Baymax and Hiro are both coming to the game, and you’ll even be able to wander the streets of San Fransokyo.
Sora and the gang return for more animated antics in the Disney universe
beloved Disney-besotted role-playing series. To put that into context, Pixar have released 13 feature fi lms in the same time frame, so Sora, Donald, and Goofy are most defi nitely overdue another stint in the spotlight. Thankfully, Kingdom Hearts III

looks well worth waiting for. Square Enix estimate it could take as many as 50 hours to plough through their gargantuan game, which combines Final Fantasy-style role-playing with cherished Disney worlds and characters. This runtime only takes the main story into account, though, since a wealth of minigames, including a cooking game based on Pixar’s brilliant Ratatouille, could extend that number by another 20 to 30 hours.

mazingly, 12 years have passed since Square Enix last released a mainline entry in their
animations even more completely than its charming PS2 predecessors. A host of new worlds inspired by the studio’s more recent fi lms will be appearing, meaning that younger Disney fans will also be well catered for. Sora and chums will be able to explore the likes of Tangled’s Corona, San Fransokyo from Big Hero 6, and even Frozen’s frosty Arendelle. Most exciting of all? Andy’s room from the wonderful Toy Story acts as the central story location, so we can’t wait to make friends with Woody and his pals.
Heart attack Battling the series’ evil
Heartless is also more entertaining than ever.
‘Attraction Flow’ attacks have been introduced to combat, adding
plenty of spectacle by taking cues from Disneyland attractions such as the park’s Big Thunder Railroad ride. Sora, Donald, and Goofy can also be accompanied by an additional two allies during fi ghts. Add all that together and this good- natured RPG should have no trouble chasing away those January blues.
