Story

Kingdom Hearts III

"That's the story of the King of Truth. Reclaim your heart.
After a long fight, weapons have brought great benefits for humanity.
But the "KARMA" that sleeps in humans will accelerate further.
In the light of the warhead in the night sky, they chose to fight while feeling the pain of their hearts...
A journey without a place to return.
The world is to all humans to turn a page.
What is eternal bond."
