According to the October issue of the Official PlayStation Magazine, it's rumored that Square Enix will not only reveal Kingdom Hearts III at the Tokyo Game Show, but announce the title as a PlayStation 3 exclusive.
“Kingdom Hearts III is currently in development as a PS3 exclusive and will be announced at TGS.” -OPM

Rumors have been circling this title since early last year, with speculation coming from both viewers at the Square Enix Party in the Closed Mega Theatre in 2007, and players who beat Kingdom Hearts 2 and unlocked the secret trailer. With the Tokyo Game Show set to begin on October 9, it won't be too much longer until we verify or disprove this information.

i thought sora's story was done, which sucked cuz it wouldn't be KH without sora and the gang, but this is definitely something to look forward to, and would be even more awesome if this rumor became valid. we can only hope...................................

im with chrisandmyps3 on this, ive never really liked the series either, its way over hyped, but i do think since it is a popular series, if it were a PS3 exclusive it would help the PS3 greatly, cus the system needs all the help it can get to gain leverage. i do hope this is true tho.

@Dr Tee If they can do a 2004-2005 trailer for MGS4 with Playstation 2 hardware because PS3 dev kits didn't even exist yet, I think they could probably get some kind of announcement out for KHIII.

Its Nomura which is the lead designer for Kingdom Hearts. Hes also the lead designer for Final Fantasy Versus 13 which is staying exclusive because well think of him as Kojima for Square-Enix pretty much. Which means I guess you can expect this to be PlayStation 3 exclusive as well. I'm not sure if it'll be announced at TGS, but I can expect that the game is going to be exclusive to PlayStation 3. By the way Square-Enix think highly of this guy, they'll do what he wants them to do. They did after all throw a party just for him, himself.

Couldnt care less bout SE anymore.
I highly doubt that Versus will stay an exclusive as it is still a way off the release date. So they said about FF13 that it will be for Playstation 3 only in cloud trailers.
This one as well

Seeing how Nomura was the creator of the KH series I don't see it going exclusive, but who knows. Anyway Justin the pictures you posted are for Birth By Sleep a PSP KH game, which is pretty much the prequel to the entire series. Just trying to clear things up a bit.

Yea, right. SE will claim this to be a PS3 exclusive all the way up until a few months before it comes out then say it's coming to Xbox 360. Just like they did with FF

if this game was going to move millions of ps3 then microsoft would make it go multi plat like they did ff13.any big threats to the 360 install base and they will throw money at it or them lol.

If anyone has been paying attention...
Square Enis is making 3 new Kingdom Hearts Series:
Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep - for the PSP
Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days - For the DS
Kingdom Hearts: Coded - for the mobile phone
There is even proof. behind the scenes videos, preview scans, screenshoots, inerviews with square enix. I dont know why PSU doesnt know this..
