[b][i]Kingdom Hearts IV[/b][/i] is rumored to be planned for [b]Nintendo Switch 2[/b]
Following the announcement, the reliable informant [b]Midori[/b] used her [b]Twitter[/b] account to mention that a source had anticipated these details last February, but she decided not to publish them because she couldn't verify the source's accuracy.
However, upon seeing that it was accurate information and at the request of some of her followers, the informant shared more information that her source originally shared, among which highlights details of [b][i]Kingdom Hearts IV[/b][/i].
