New Kingdom Hearts III Screenshots Look Beautiful; Show Frozen World and More

Today Square Enix released a large batch of lovely screenshots and character art of the upcoming JRPG Kingdom Hearts III.

We get to see Frozen’s world Arendelle, where Sora will be looking for Elsa and will meet the snowman Marshmellow in an ice castle. While he is initially hostile, he simply wants to protect Elsa, so he will accompany Sora and his friends and help them in battle. When they find Elsa, something seems to be amiss.

Then we also to see the Mysterious Tower world, where Yen Sid from Fantasia awaits. We’ll also meet Jiminy Cricket, Chip and Dale who will act as support behind the scenes. Speaking of support, we see the co-op attacks with Stick, Goofy, and Donald.

Last, but not least, the Kingdom Hearts III images feature the members of Organization XIII. This includes Master Xehanort, Merluxia, Lea, Larxene, and Ienzo.

You can check out all the screenshots below, a recent trailer showing the opening cutscene, some new artwork featuring Kairi from a couple of weeks ago.

Kingdom Hearts III will finally be released on PS4 and Xbox first in Japan on Jan. 25. Western gamers in North America and Europe won’t have much longer to wait in order to play the game, as it will launch on this side of the Pacific Ocean on Jan 29.
