Even if we won’t see Kingdom Hearts IV before quite a while we can count on the future mobile game Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link to make us wait. We were promised a first beta for the year 2022, however, a recent message from Tetsuya Nomura told us that there would be a delay. Today, the official site has just announced the arrival of this famous beta which will however be very selective.

Announced at the 20th anniversary event of the Kingdom Hearts series last April, Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link represents the future of the mobile series. Contrary to Dark Road or Union χ [cross], the title should be very close to the main games in terms of gameplay. The two games mentioned brought important elements to the lore of the franchise, however, we cannot say that they were particularly pleasant to play..
Missing-Link will also be the sequel to Union χ [cross] and will precede the events of Dark Road. According to the first information, we should therefore obtain answers to many questions and in particular the family origins of Eraqus and Xehanort. It will be possible to create your own avatar who will be the hero of this universe. To accompany the news of the day, Tetsuya Nomura has also shared a superb artwork that gives Kingdom Hearts the air of Bloodborne.
The official Square Enix website has just announced that Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link will soon be available in beta even if the term “prototype” is used here. It will however be ultra selective. It will be possible to register to try to access it from December 19 to 26 knowing that the servers will open from January 13 to 12, 2023. The big problem is that this “prototype” version will be limited to 1000 iOS 11.0 users only in Japan. iPads and Android devices will therefore not be able to participate.
In addition, there are also many non-disclosure agreements to be agreed to. In particular, it will be forbidden to take screenshots and gameplay even if we know that leaks in the video game are commonplace.
