Physical Xbox One copies of Kingdom Hearts III have leaked over a month prior to release

If you thought copies of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate finding their way to the public a week before launch was bad, then wait until you hear this one. While Kindgom Hearts III's January 25th launch is almost here, with the game having gone gold and finished development, some fans have their hands on the game already. Reportedly, more than 30 copies of the game on Xbox One have been stolen directly from a distribution center, making their way to Facebook sales pages for inflated prices. This means actual copies of the game are in the wild, and those that have their hands on the game have been uploading screenshots and videos to social media and YouTube. If you don't mind spoilers, gameplay footage is currently being posted on ResetEra.

That’s dedication for you - buying two versions of the same game!!!

Why not buy now if you can: definitely if you are ready to play already.

I’ve been hanging for this game... sadly - I have a backlog of games so this will not be a day one purchase (can’t believe I said that out loud). I am trying to get through them before Jan 29th but I don’t like my chances

The other games can wait, buy kh3 now hehe.

I remember buying Japanese and final mix versions of old KH so why not kh3.

I know Final mix's were made due to lack of downloading game updates.

To a huge degree I agree totally but... I keep doing is and some games I have wanted to play have been put on the back burner for too long...

Horizon: Zero Dawn
Shining Resonance Refrain
The Witcher 3 (stared this one several time but other games pushed it back)
Nier: Automa Become as god edition

Just to name a few...

Honestly: would probably prefer to play KH3... and who knows.. come launch day I may just buy it.. but can’t keep my other games continuously waiting either

Did that in the 360 and I I’ve a huge backlog there... which I probably will never get too

you compare these games to KH3 hehe.

I bought tales of vesperia to finish it and waste time until KH3 releases and ni no kuni 2 dlcs on steam.

after unlocking all smash characters I didn't play it very often.

Nier: Automa Become as god edition was amazing but ending c or chapter c is very very hard.

The Witcher 3 they talk too much about thing I don't care about hehe.

ooo I bought red dead redemption 2 month ago … I didn't like it.

Hell no - I do not compare them to KH3. But i have them to play still. And highly likely won’t play them all before KH3 but I need a game to play and I refuse to (once again) start another game only to stop half way trough to play another game... done that way too often

Did that with Final fantasy 12 back in Ps2... had one esper and the final boss to go... moved house, started a different game and never got back to it... that was 13yrs ago

I since purchased zodiac age and finished that instead

I waste so much money on games... well, I call it a waste when I buy a game full price... don’t play it and then by the time I do it is on sale for half the price...

Could have saved thousands if I just waited - lol

And I forgot about Tales of Vesperia. Completed it on 360, not out here til Jan 11th on Xbox one and won’t be getting the day one either... I will wait until a decent special comes on.. even if a year from now...

So yep - definitely not comparing any game to KH3 - I do want it.. just depends if I have time tomay it and not in the middle of other games..

Then again... I might just go “screw it” and get it cos we have all waited so long for it

P.s. never played red dead 1... no interest in red dead 2

Me too if the game is not legend of Zelda nor kingdom hearts nor something I really loved

1. I look forward for the game
2. Buy the game
3. Play it for few hours maybe two
4. I watch reviews of it on YouTube
5. I watch how they made it and Easter eggs and secrets of that game
6. Now I saw so much of that game that I stop playing it

Can someone explain to me why they had to delay the game a whole month only for the game to leak a month prior?

Probably sales, you had smash, RDR2 , and a lot of other big titles releasing around this time of year and they probably wanted dit to be in a month things don't usually release in.

Until this generation games leaking so early was pretty normal on the Xbox 360. I remember Halo, Gears, Call of Duty used to always leak around a month early. I guess the only saving grace here is that the Xbox One isn't hacked, so the games not going to be pirated from this.

Yeah not even the Ps4 scene will be able to pirate it since Sony hasn't patched anything for us to release a new exploit. So legitimate buyers all around to play KH3 unless its physically stolen of course lol
