Kingdom Hearts hasn’t been on a console in a long time. Square Enix has been making portable spinoffs for a number of years, though this might be changing soon.
In an interview with Game Informer, Tetsuya Nomura expressed interest in returning to consoles. While answering a question about a possible PlayStation Vita title, Nomura said, “I also feel that it’s about time that Kingdom Hearts should go back to being on a console.”
Nomura was later asked about HD versions of Kingdom Hearts I and II. Regarding this, he told the magazine:
“I do have an interest in HD versions, and I’m currently researching them. If it is possible, I would like to do something about the series being spread over so many different consoles, too. I am thinking a lot about the future.”
Last but not least, Nomura wasn’t able to confirm if the next Kingdom Hearts title will be KHIII, but he did say that fans “may be able to find a hint if you play through Dream Drop Distance to the very end.”
According to Nomura:
“I’m not able to disclose any information on what’s coming next or any other future plans, but you may be able to find a hint if you play through Dream Drop Distance to the very end.”

Ubisoft appears to be working on a project based on The Avengers.
Marvel Characters, Inc. registered the domain name “avengersbattleforearth.com” through brand protection company MarkMonitor. The site is now sitting on Ubisoft’s nameservers, nic1.ubisoft.com and nic2.ubisoft.com.
