Kingdom Hearts 4 will lead towards a series conclusion so Nomura can retire


Kingdom Hearts 4 is being developed with the intention of the series "being a story that will be completed".

Further, the game will be a reset of the story (it's notoriously complex), with new writers hired and a new logo to make it easier for newcomers to join the series (thanks, Aitai Kimochi). Aerith was meant to be a glamorous heroine in contrast to Cloud's dark side and Barret's toughness, resulting in her red clothes and bright hair - although this was tied up as polygons couldn't express its fluttering texture. Part of the aim for the Remake trilogy was to play with the "distortion of perception" based on players' memories of the original game that must have changed slightly in the years since its release.
