Kingdom Hearts IV is the newest instalment in the Kingdom Hearts series and is in early development. In the announcement trailer Sora wakes up after a long sleep in Quadratum, a large, expansive city set in a gorgeous, realistic world. The city is under threat of a giant enemy and Sora goes into battle. In the trailer you also see Strelitzia, a mysterious new character.

Chrono Cross was released back in 1999 on the original PlayStation and tells the story of Serge, who one day wanders into an alternate world. The game is set in the same world as Chrono Trigger and is linked.
