Kingdom Hearts Unchained X Relaunching As Union X[Cross]

Posted on by

Fans will soon be able to learn more about the KINGDOM HEARTS history with the upcoming release of KINGDOM HEARTS Union χ[Cross], the relaunch of the critically acclaimed mobile RPG formerly known as KINGDOM HEARTS Unchained χ. As part of the free update next month, the game will soon have a new “Union Cross” multiplayer mode and more ways to customize the player’s avatar.

With KINGDOM HEARTS Union χ[Cross], players can create teams of six from their party members or through a matchmaking feature to fight hordes of Heartless enemies and powerful bosses. Players can also take on quests of increasing difficulty as well as unique new missions. To help these teams of friends communicate with each other, the game will now include emotes and text bubbles. Players will encounter both familiar and new faces as the story of the Unions continues to unfold, and the new “Theater Mode” will allow players to relive the drama and rewatch cutscenes.

Fans can pre-register for the update on the official website (https://form3.square-enix.com/a.p/816/) to obtain exclusive smartphone wallpapers and in-game rewards. To commemorate the relaunch and the one-year anniversary of the original app release, players will also receive in-game presents by logging in after the update.

Here is the relaunch trailer:

Fans are also invited to stop by the Square Enix® booth (#11017) at PAX East to be among the first in the world to get their hands on this exciting new chapter of the KINGDOM HEARTS story and for a chance to receive special buttons and a poster featuring the artwork of Tetsuya Nomura, while supplies last.

Our Take:

It’s interesting to see that this game is getting a relaunch, it’s a shame the name couldn’t have been a little less confusing (Which is standard for Kingdom Hearts titles). With the 15th Anniversary of the original game and with the recent release of 2.8 and the re-releases of the 1.5 & 2.5 remixes, there is a lot of excitement over Kingdom Hearts franchises.

Will you be checking out the new game?
