-

Few video game characters are as iconic as Sonic the Hedgehog. The speedy little blue blur has been around for over three decades, touching every corner of pop culture along the way, from games, to comics, to TV, to blockbuster movies. But we’re here specifically to celebrate the mainline Sonic game series and pick the best of them. Before we start, let’s quickly touch upon our criteria. We tried to rank these games based on a combination of historical significance, innovation, and how well these games stand the test of time. Some games, like Sonic Adventure 1 and the original Sonic the Hedgehog, for instance, are obviously super important to the Sonic series and set the foundation for both 2D and 3D Sonic games to follow, but we felt like they both didn’t quite hold up as well as their sequels when judged by a modern standard, which was why they just missed this list. The 10 games on this list are the ones we feel are the best examples of both classic and modern Sonic style. So w...

Kingdom Hearts 4 Director Tetsuya Nomura on Quadratum's Real-World Influences, Sora's Realistic Look

-

Kingdom Hearts 4's first world will seemingly be the realistic looking Quadratum from the reveal trailer.

In an interview with Famitsu, translated by Video Games Chronicle, director Tetsuya Nomura said the room in which protagonist Sora awakes will be "the base for the early part of the game."

Quadratum, the Tokyo-looking world shown in the trailer, isn't actually the real world though. It's "similar to an afterworld", Nomura said, but features real world locations like Shibuya, and to Sora it's an underworld.

It's very much real to the residents of Quadratum, though, and according to Kingdom Hearts 3 (where it was introduced) it's not a world of light or dark but instead a world of fiction that exists "on the other side".

These different perspectives are all intentional according to Nomura, who said: "I think the theme of this project will be the contrast between those who are in such different positions."

Sora's realistic look is also a result of this real-looking but not real world, Nomura said, and he'll return to his more cartoony origins later in the game.

"Donald and Goofy are looking for clues about Sora in the original world," he explained. "All the real worlds before the title display [in the trailer] are all Quadratum segments and Sora will look realistic, but if he can return to the original world, he will look like Donald and Goofy with shaders like Donald and Goofy."

Kingdom Hearts 4 was unveiled recently at the Kingdom Hearts 20th anniversary event. Square Enix also confirmed the game was still in "early development" and Kingdom Hearts 3's production infamously lasted 13 years.

While the gameplay shown appeared fairly complete, it was from a demo developed on Unreal Engine 4. The final game itself is being made on Unreal Engine 5, meaning those sections may not be playable in the same way for some time.

Fans are already speculating as to what Disney worlds could be included in Kingdom Hearts 4, and some think the trailer could be teasing the inclusion of a Star Wars section.
