The game was officially announced at the ''Kingdom Hearts 20th Anniversary'' event on April 10, 2022 with a teaser trailer of the game being in development. Following the event, in an interview with famitsu, series director Tetsuya Nomura stated the trailer was rendered in real time in {{w|Unreal Engine}} 4. However, the game's development would be moving to be developed in Unreal Engine 5. Nomura stated that ''Kingdom Hearts IV'' takes place 1 year after the event of ''[[Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory]]'' and world selection is currently in progress. After the conclusion of the [[Dark Seeker Saga]], Nomura was torn between ''[[Verum Rex]]'' or ''Kingdom Hearts IV'' as the next continuation and discussed it with series co-director Yasushi Yasue. In the end, Nomura decided ''Kingdom Hearts IV'' to be the next game in development because it'd be difficult to develop two big console games at the same time.<ref>[https://www.famitsu.com/news/202204/11257883.html '''''famitsu''': 『キングダム ハーツ4』続報はいつ？ UE5での開発やヨゾラが登場する『VERUM REX』の話題も'']</ref> | |||
