Thu, 21 Oct 2021 19:00:00 +0900

The Kingdom Hearts franchise is easily one of the most recognizable and notable games, at least in part due to it being a collaboration between Square Enix and the Walt Disney Company.

The first installment was released in March 2002 on the Playstation 2, and since then over 32 million copies of the various games have shipped worldwide across a multitude of platforms. Most recently, Nintendo Switch ports for the vast majority of the Kingdom Hearts games were announced in October 2021.

While the story of this dearly beloved series is a bit convoluted at times, it hasn’t stopped Sora, Riku, Kairi, and the rest of the characters from capturing the hearts of the players. So much so that Sora is finally being added to the roster of heroes in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, which was also announced in October 2021!

Will you be playing the Switch release of the series? Or maybe you’re more excited for Sora being a playable character in Super Smash Bros?

Sun, 14 Oct 2018 18:00:00 +0900

Back in the 1990s, no one could talk about video games without mentioning the Super Nintendo Entertainment System and the same could be said about RPGs and Square Co., Ltd. (now Square Enix Co., Ltd.), which created many smash-hit RPG titles during the era. The RPG titles that Square released back then continued to push the boundary of RPG, of what an RPG could achieve, and many of the systems that we take for granted today were first established in the 1990s. Active Time Battle, a flexible scenario, multiple endings, a New Game with a higher level of difficulty... Are you familiar with these systems and more?

Today, we're featuring illustrations of the RPGs that Square released in the 1990s, including some Final Fantasy titles. Enjoy!
