Kingdom Hearts 4 fans may have received their first look into the highly-anticipated game’s many worlds, as a brand-new leak claims to have the list. Of course, leaks like these should immediately be met with skepticism, but with the anticipation of Kingdom Hearts 4 continuing to grow, such news is still very well worth looking into.
Originally shared on 4chan, this Kingdom Hearts 4 list leak features a diverse variety of Disney franchises that could be promising plenty of thrilling additions. Between Hercules, Moana, Zootopia, and Wreck-It Ralph, Kingdom Hearts fans might be in for a great treat. However, one franchise on the list definitely stands out, and it could be giving Kingdom Hearts lovers something that has been requested for two decades: The Incredibles.
If New Leaks Hold True, Kingdom Hearts 4 Could Finally Bring The Incredibles Into the Fold
A Crossover 20 Years in the Making
The first Kingdom Hearts game debuted in 2002, two years before The Incredibles hit theaters, with Kingdom Hearts 2 following a year later in 2005. With only a year between The Incredibles and Kingdom Hearts 2, it makes sense as to why the former wasn’t part of the latter, but once Kingdom Hearts 3 came around, it seemed like the perfect opportunity for the beloved film to finally become part of the games’ universe.
With The Incredibles 2 being released in 2018 and Kingdom Hearts 3 finally arriving in 2019, it would have been an ideal time to add the superhero family to the series, as the sequel would have been fresh in a lot of gamers’ minds. This clearly wasn’t the case, though, but Kingdom Hearts 4 could finally bring forth the debut of Mr. Incredible and the rest of his family. Kingdom Hearts 4‘s potential worlds are promising, and if The Incredibles actually becomes part of the game, it’s bound to be one of the franchise’s most unique worlds.
The Incredibles is defined by its retro-futuristic aesthetic, giving it both a nostalgic and borderline sci-fi feel that makes it stand out from other Disney properties. Such a world would be a fascinating contrast against other teased Disney franchises like Inside Out and Princess and the Frog. The Incredibles has been one of the most influential Disney/Pixar franchises of the 21st century, so it would only make sense for it to be part of Kingdom Hearts at this point.
The Incredibles is no stranger to high-profile game crossovers. Last year, the film officially became part of Fortnite, as the battle royale title introduced skins modeled after Mr. Incredible, Mrs. Incredible, and Frozone.
Only Time Will Tell What Worlds Kingdom Hearts 4 Has in Store
As thrilling as The Incredibles being mentioned in this leak is, it’s far from confirmed. It’s possible that Square Enix could come out any day and shoot down this leak, but this remains to be seen. As of now, those waiting for more Kingdom Hearts 4 news will simply have to wait and see, even if it is frustrating. A reveal could happen when fans are least expecting it, and as The Game Awards draw closer, the end of this year could be the perfect way to showcase a new trailer or even gameplay.

This may be wishful thinking, though. Kingdom Hearts 4 has teased several exciting things that have to be fully confirmed, and as the wait continues, leaks and rumors are bound to keep popping up. This world list leak definitely should not be taken as an official update, but it’s definitely compelling.
