Fans will travel to iconic Disney worlds and join forces with beloved Disney and FINAL FANTASY® characters in order to fight back against the threat of darkness and bring back light to all worlds.

The compilation includes the following games:

Think you've quoted the wrong post there... nowhere in my post do I query the chronology (and the game/story order has already been clarified elsewhere in this thread)... I was replying to someone questioning the worth of this release.

US only ? physical only?
at least, it's cheaper than buying both separated.


Should I wait for the "complete pack" with 1.5+2.5 + 2.8 + 3.0 ?
it might be released one day and even be 39$ too in 2 years, right?
I'll wait until 3.0 release, to see if they announce any full story pack.

If you want digital complete pack, there already is one for the PS4, you get all games besides III when you order then III as soon as it releases. If you want retail, just wait longer... But knowing how PS4 games are nowadays, you will end up having to download like 90% of the game anyway even with retail.

I was thinking Microsoft was bad at naming videogame related things, but just look at this mess. How should anyone find out which games belongs where in story? I really hope this games not also have somekind of multiple timelines situation going on

I wonder about people here complaining about a cash grab, that's 9 (once) full price games for just $40... Looks like a really good package to me even considering some of the games where original released for handhelds.

How? Is not like a google search takes more than 2 minutes... But yeah, people crying cash grab are just crazy, I personally have never played a kingdom hearts game and this is kind of a crazy value for someone like me.

Square Enix... the company that makes inventing a time machine actually viable...

You know they were already on PS4, right..?

Atleast now it's an all in one for the price of one.
Not sure how much the price have dropped thus far.

Also, I got confused with the re's on Ps3...

I still have KH 1.5 and 2.5 stored away in a container after selling off my PS3 for a Switch.
This would be nice to have if I ever get a PS4.lol

IHow do they expect people to buy a sequel to a game they most likely never heard of before. Stupid decision, unless sony has exclusive rights or something.

Eh, no gamer hasnt heard of Kingdom Hearts, and most people who care about Kingdom Hearts owned a PS2.

You are forgetting something REALLY important, plenty of players now were either not even born back in 2002 or could hardly speak, let alone play action games The re-releases every time have been for collectors wanting everything in one system and for new audiences to have more accessibility to the series, which is a good thing, just because you were around back in 2002 to play doesn't mean everyone else was.
