Kingdom Hearts 3 leaks early, Game Director warns about spoilers

Kingdom Hearts 3 has leaked with more than a month to go before the game’s actual release.

Polygon reports that 30 leaked copies are in circulation via someone with a connection inside the North Carolina-based facility that’s manufactured and printed game discs. The discs all appear to be Xbox One copies.

A user on Twitter saw copies of the game being sold via Facebook Marketplace, though that listing and the Twitter thread describing it have both been deleted. A copy of the latter was uploaded to Imgur. As part of the listing, a series of spoilery videos were posted to the internet and remain in circulation.

In reply, Director Tetsuya Nomura has released a statement that assures fans that the game’s “biggest spoilers” aren’t featured in the videos. Nevertheless, he’s asking fans not to distribute the videos that are available.

Be careful when using social media, fans.

Kingdom Hearts 3 heads to Xbox One and PS4 on 29 January 2019.

About the author

Steve Wright

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
