Famitsu conducted an interview with TetsuyaNomura, who shared new details on KingdomHearts4.
In Kingdom Hearts 4, our Keyblade hero Sora has a brand new look that finally makes him resemble a realistic-looking Final Fantasy character and a swanky new apartment to go with it. It’s an impressive feat for a 15-year-old, assuming he didn’t time skip a few years after leaving Donald Duck, Goofy, and all of his friends at the end of Kingdom Hearts 3. According to series creator Tetsuya Nomura, however, Sora’s new makeover and pad may not last as long as we thought it would.
“From Sora’s perspective, Quadratum is an underworld, a fictional world that is different from reality,” Nomura said. “But from the point of view of the inhabitants on the Quadratum side, the world of Quadratum is reality, and the world where Sora and the others were is the other side, the fictional world.”
The apartment building itself is set in a small part of Tokyo called Minami-Aoyama, which actually exists in our world. It’s a short walk away from Shibuya, where Sora supposedly showed up in the secret ending of Kingdom Hearts 3. This brings us to the next point.
