Kingdom Hearts 4 Rears Its Head to Celebrate Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Release

We may have just gotten our latest look at Kingdom Hearts 4 (kind of) in the form of a social media post celebrating the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

Earlier today, the official Kingdom Hearts X/Twitter account shared an image of Sora on what looks like the streets of Shibuya, glancing up at various big-screen advertisements featuring Sephiroth. The reason we're counting this as a look at Kingdom Hearts 4, however, is that it's set in Quadratum, the bustling city in which the sequel will take place.

We can tell because the intersection in which Sora is standing, with the big 104 building in the background, is one of the few true glimpses we've seen of Quadratum. The setting is based on Tokyo, specifically the Shibuya district.

In a cute touch, the image references a real-life ad campaign that's currently taking place in Shibuya, with Final Fantasy VII Rebirth taking over various billboards and screens, as captured by @Genki_JPN on X/Twitter below.

It's not much, but it is the latest crumb we've gotten on Kingdom Hearts 4, with Square Enix officially announcing the sequel in 2022. We got a brief trailer back then, but little information since, including a release window (see everything we have managed to figure out right here).

Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, meanwhile, officially released on PlayStation 5 today, so fans are just starting to dive in. For more, check out our 9/10 review, as well as our spoiler-filled breakdown on why that one script change from Remake actually makes perfect sense.
