Dark RoadĀ is a particularly notable Kingdom Hearts game in that it tells the backstory of Xehanort, the villain of the action-RPG series. It first debuted on Android and iOS in June 2020 as a rebrand of a previousĀ Kingdom HeartsĀ mobile game,Ā Union X [Cross].Ā WhileĀ Dark Road‘s online features are shutting down with the release of this final chapter, all of the story content will remain accessible.
AnotherĀ Kingdom HeartsĀ mobile prequel game,Ā Missing Link, is also in the works for mobile. A closed beta is set to launch later this year, while the full game will feature connections to the upcoming PS5 and Xbox Series X/S title,Ā Kingdom Hearts 4. An official release window for either game has yet to be confirmed.
