Link’s Leaked Cinematic May Have Clues For KH4
Key Points:
- A cinematic believed to be the opening scene of the canceled mobile game Kingdom Hearts Missing-Link has surfaced online, revealing potential story elements that may be integrated into future Kingdom Hearts lore, including Kingdom Hearts IV.
- The cinematic features a squad of astronaut or deep-sea diver-like Keyblade wielders fighting a massive Heartless, possibly representing a sci-fi evolution of the Keyblade Armor used to navigate the “Lanes Between,” areas filled with concentrated dark energy.
- Missing-Link was intended to follow early expeditioners entering the Astral Plane from Scala ad Caelum, the origin of Kingdom Hearts’ worlds, suggesting these suited characters might be connected to this lore.
- Visual motifs in the cinematic echo earlier Kingdom Hearts scenes, with fans speculating connections between protagonist Sora and Quadratum, the realistic Tokyo-based world featured in Kingdom Hearts IV, as the divers intentionally enter a dark realm to battle Heartless.
- The video reveals characters Brain from Kingdom Hearts Union X and Sigurd, a mysterious figure linked to Kingdom Hearts IV, marking one of the first clear views of Sigurd’s face and confirming his role in the ongoing story.
