Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) 2016 is an event where gamers will get to learn more about their much awaited games. But E3 2016 has already concluded and nothing was said about "Kingdom Hearts 3" from Square Enix.
As it turns out, the reason behind the lack of announcements about "Kingdom Hearts 3" is because Square Enix wants to focus on "Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue" since it's going to premiere soon. So when fans hoped to learn more about "Kingdom Hearts 3" in E3 2016, they were left disappointed.
“We want to share as much as possible," "Kingdom Hearts 3" and "Kingdom Hearts 2.8" co-director Tai Yasue said. "We’re excited about Kingdom Hearts 3. But 2.8 we’re releasing globally at the beginning of December. We wanted to concentrate on that first. We want what’s best for the moment. We’re currently making 3 and 2.8 at the same time, but we wanted to concentrate on 2.8 right now.”

Even with the upcoming release of "Kingdom Hearts 2.8," the anticipation for "Kingdom Hearts 3" didn't stop. In fact, fans were expecting that Square Enix will give them even just a tiny bit of information about "Kingdom Hearts 3" at E3 2016 but the developer remained tight-lip about it.
Now, it is realized that Square Enix wants the fans to enjoy "Kingdom Hearts 2.8" before conquering "Kingdom Hearts 3."
It feels like the fans have been waiting forever for the release of "Kingdom Hearts 3." The delay was supposed to may way for the "Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue" and to add hype to "Kingdom Hearts 3," but did the plan of Square Enix backfire this time?
It appears that even though "Kingdom Hearts 3" is a much-awaited game, the delay may have been too much for the fans that they lost interest in "Kingdom Hearts 3." Shockingly, the much-hyped "Kingdom Hearts 3" has never reached the Top 5 in the Famitsu Charts for months now.
The "Kingdom Hearts 3" E3 2016 trailer revealed that the game is still in development. The release of the much-awaited "Kingdom Hearts 3" has yet to be announced.
