The next Disney and final fantasy mash up Kingdom Hearts 3 is dropping luminous and instead using unreal engine 4 for the game engine. Now the only thing Tetsuya Nomura has stated about the switch is that it was for various reasons and that they are moving forward.
““Surely and steadily, we’re progressing on schedule,” Nomura said when asked about the game’s development status during a new Famitsu interview. “For various reasons, we’ve changed the game engine to Unreal Engine 4, because of which we’ve been facing rendering troubles. But Epic Games has been really cooperative and helpful, so we’re progressing just fine. Right now, we’re doing the scenario writing and world selection. I’m also making the new outfits for Sora and Riku.”
We will have to see how the switch will work for them in the future hopefully either by trailer or gameplay video.
