The Japanese installment of the D23 Expo (Disney’s big convention) took place this past weekend, and among other highlights (like the reveal of “Avatar Land”), Square Enix was there to show off the current build of Kingdom Hearts III.

Still without a release date - but coming for PlayStation 3 and XBox One - the gameplay certainly looks familar. Honestly, I didn’t notice the game was next gen, until the camera zoomed in on the characters, and they looked remarkably like the original pre-rendered cut scenes from the first PlayStation 2 installment.  You can check it out in motion for yourself above.

If you’re already sold on the game - and your choice of next gen console - Kingdom Hearts III is already available for pre-order at Amazon. Crazy, right?
