Kingdom Hearts III is an active property: it is discounted 60% off in a summer sales roundup, Sora has a new FORM-ISM ACT articulated figure releasing in January 2027, and a performance comparison shows the Switch 2 version running at higher average frame rates than the Steam Deck but still unstable, while the PS5 version holds a steady 60fps.
Kingdom Hearts III remains a presence in Square Enix's catalog and in player hands. A summer sales roundup from GAME Watch lists the game at 60% off across the Nintendo eShop, PS Store, and Steam, with most discounts ending by late August. This places the title among major franchises in the promotion, alongside Like a Dragon 8 at 75% off.
Merchandising continues with a new articulated figure of Sora from the game, part of Square Enix's FORM-ISM ACT series. This is the first figure in that line for a Kingdom Hearts character. The figure uses an all-new sculpt based on the original character design, includes two Keyblades (Kingdom Chain and Crystal Snow), and a clip-type stand. It is priced at 13,200 yen (11,880 yen at AmiAmi), measures about 160mm, and releases January 30, 2027.
Performance coverage surfaced through a YouTube analysis by ElAnalistaDeBits comparing Kingdom Hearts III on Steam Deck, Nintendo Switch 2, and PS5 via backward compatibility. The Switch 2 version runs at higher average frame rates than the Steam Deck but remains unstable, while the PS5 version holds a steady 60fps. The Switch 2 version is currently a demo and may receive final optimizations.
