According to the report, the new Keyblade can transform and combine allowing the player to change its function and adopt according to the enemies that he may encounter.

In related news, there will be new characters that will join the roster of heroes and villains in "Kingdom Hearts 3" according to Ecumenical News. "Kingdom Hearts" is a collaborative work of Square Enix and Disney and the two companies allowed their characters to be used in the game to promote and acquire a larger market. Since Disney acquired rights over Lucas Films, it is only natural that fans may be able to see famous characters from Star Wars to join the latest "Kingdom Hearts" game.
According to the report, Square Enix would want to include Elsa, Darth Vader and even Iron Man in the game. However according to co-director Tai Yasue of "Kingdom Hearts 3", he is not allowed to reveal their plans in including Star Wars characters saying that "I can't really go into any specifics or say anything about Star Wars, but when we come up with worlds we really want variety and to make sure that there's a lot of different types of worlds."
Some interesting rumors that surfaced online would be the inclusion of Snow White and the seven dwarfs in the game plot. There were also plans to expand the Disney characters to Peter Pan, Mulan, Tarzan and Simba. Even Captain Jack Sparrow was not spared in the recent rumors.
In relation to rumors, Motoring Crunch has reported that there is a lot of confusion on the release date for "Kingdom Hearts 3". This was intensified by the recent leak on at Amazon which states that "Kingdom Hearts 3" will arrive January next year. It may have been a coding or a temporary release date but the online store has included it in their catalogue of PlayStation 4 games.
This might be highly unlikely since Tetsuya Nomura has revealed that "Final Fantasy XV" takes precedence over "Kingdom Hearts 3" and it will take a lot of time to complete both games since they will be using the new Unreal 4 game engine, besides there are no official announcement yet from Square Enix regarding this matter.
"Kingdom Hearts 3" is the latest game being developed under the "Kingdom Hearts" Series. The game series has been successful in integrating the good visuals, simple but deep gameplay in its great storyline. Stay tuned for more news on its official release date!
