Kingdom Hearts 4 received an extended D23 trailer on August 15, 2026 that shows dedicated gameplay for Mickey Mouse, Donald, and Goofy along with new Sora abilities and Coco world footage. The title remains on track for a late 2027 launch across Nintendo Switch 2, PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X.
Mickey explores his own world with puzzle-based game design, including platforming where players transform into large, small, and paper-thin versions of an origami Mickey, similar to exploratory segments in Paper Mario games.
