Kingdom Hearts 3 isn't due out until January, but you can get a sneak preview of some of the game's content in Kingdom Hearts Union X....in a sense. The mobile game has added the same minigames that will be found in the retail title for PS4 and XBox. How's that possible? Because these minigames aren't that graphics-intensive.
"Classic Kingdom" is the name of a series of black-and-white minigames based on 1930s Disney shorts. The games are rendered in the fashion of LCD Game and Watch devices from the 1980s (a comparison to Tiger handhelds is not as apt, because these games will actually be playable).
More info from Square can be found below.
LOS ANGELES (Sept. 7, 2018) – Fans eagerly awaiting the highly anticipated release of KINGDOM HEARTS III can prepare for their journey early in the KINGDOM HEARTS Union χ[Cross] mobile game. Starting today, players who update the app can play ‘Classic Kingdom’ minigames, inspired by classic Disney short films, within the new χ3 [ex tres] mode. The retro gaming style is modeled on popular LCD portable systems of the 1980s. These games will also be available in KINGDOM HEARTS III when it launches on January 29, 2019.
Upon meeting certain requirements in the ‘CLASSIC KINGDOM’ minigames, players will become eligible to receive a code redeemable for the Starlight Keyblade that can be used in KINGDOM HEARTS III. The codes will be distributed in-app at a later date, and players will be able to select their preferred platform (Xbox One family of devices including the Xbox One X or PlayStation®4 computer entertainment system).
