after square enix finished development of "kingdom hearts ii: final mix", tetsuya nomura was approached by disney, who expressed interest in a sequel. in regard to a possible release of "kingdom hearts iii", nomura said "we have various ideas, but we're not at the point where we can say that." he added that due to the development of "final fantasy xv"—titled "final fantasy versus xiii" at the time— which was being developed by the "kingdom hearts ii" team, it was "physically impossible at the present. i feel that it's not the right time to talk about the future of "kingdom hearts"." in response to questions about the secret film in "final mix", nomura noted that it was of a "new series" in "kingdom hearts" rather than "kingdom hearts iii". when asked about "kingdom hearts iii", nomura noted that fans and partners alike were interested in its release, and would work to "realize it" as soon as possible. in the "kingdom hearts birth by sleep" ultimania guide book, nomura announced three upcoming titles, one of which was "kingdom hearts iii". however, "final fantasy xv" was still his primary focus, preventing him from starting production on "kingdom hearts iii". he later noted that "kingdom hearts iii" would not see a release until after 2012, due to his continuing work on "final fantasy xv", regardless of the tenth anniversary of the series occurring in that year. the nintendo 3ds video game "kingdom hearts 3d: dream drop distance" was announced to connect to "kingdom hearts iii", both in terms of gameplay system and story.
