Square Enix has confirmed the recent leaks and Tetsuya Nomura, the director of Kingdom Hearts III has released a statement:

We're aware that a small portion of KINGDOM HEARTS III has been circulating online before its official release. We are also aware as to how this has all happened. We're sorry to see this caused concern amongst our fans who are excited for the release.

The whole team has been working together since yesterday night (Japan time) to investigate what we can do to better this situation, but first we would like to ask that you do not share these videos.

The game's epilogue and secret movie, which are the biggest spoilers in this game, are planned to be released at a later date just in case, so they will not be shown before the game's release.

We want everyone to be able to equally experience the full game after its release, so we ask for your continued support on this matter.

We're also very grateful that our fans have been warning each other already about the spoilers. Thank you very much.

We're one month out from the release. Let's enjoy the game together when it releases on January 29th, 2019.

- Director Tetsuya Nomura

It's unsual for a game to be leaked this early.

World of Final Fantasy Maxima, the enchanced version of World of Final Fantasy released back in 2016, is now available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Steam.

World of Final Fantasy Maxima features an all-new Avatar Change system that allows players to add fan-favorite Final Fantasy champions — including Cloud, Yuna, Noctis and more — into their stacks to create more powerful and strategic battle options than ever before. The game also features new legendary characters and Mirages (monsters), side-quests, boss battles, mini-games, and a challenging new Nightmare difficulty mode.

If you want a physical version of World of Final Fantasy Maxima, it is only available for Xbox One. The digital version is available for Xbox One and Nintendo Switch. On PlayStation 4 and Steam the new content is available as downloadable content (DLC).

Square Enix has announced on Twitter that Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles will be released on PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch in 2019 as Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles was originally released on the Nintendo GameCube back in 2003 and was the first Final Fantasy title released for a Nintendo console after Final Fantasy VI in 1994 for the Super Nintendo. This action RPG follows the story of a group adventurers traveling the world searching for rare trees which produce myrrh, used to fuel crystals protecting the world's settlements from the poisonous Miasma. The game also features a multiplayer option that allows up to 4 players join a local session that relies on the Game Boy Advance connected to the GameCube with a link cable.

Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age is now available worldwide for PlayStation 4 and Steam. It took more than one year to get an English translation of the game.

Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age follows the perilous journey of a hunted hero who must uncover the mystery of his fate with the aid of a charismatic cast of supporting characters. They embark on a quest taking them across continents and over vast oceans as they learn of an ominous threat facing the world.

The Western release delivers several upgrades and enhancements that are not in the Japanese versio, including:

• English Voiceover
• Draconian Quest, a hard mode that offers additional challenges for more experienced players.
• Overhauled Menus & UI, with graphical enhancements and more intuitive navigation.
• Camera Mode, allowing players to take in views of the beautiful landscape, character renders and ferocious monsters in detail.
• A New Dash Function and many other system enhancements, such as improved character and camera movement

The game is still in development for the Nintendo Switch and was recently delayed due to the Unreal Engine that needs to be updated to support the Switch.
