Christmas is coming a little early for Kingdom Hearts fans.
The franchise’s official Twitter account revealed that we’ll see new trailers for Kingdom Hearts III and (deep breath) Kingdom Hearts HD II.8 Final Chapter Prologue tomorrow. Kingdom Hearts III is the next installment in the Disney/Square Enix crossover series, while II.8 is an HD remake of the 3DS title Dream Drop Distance for PlayStation 4. It also includes a new, playable prologue chapter.

Normally, the announcement of a trailer coming out wouldn’t be news, but fans are starved for Kingdom Hearts III info. Kingdom Hearts II was one of the most popular games of its time when it came out back in 2006, but we’ve had to wait a long time for a proper sequel (although portable spin-offs and HD collections have appeared since KHII).

We don’t know too much about Kingdom Hearts III yet, other than that it will have worlds based off of recent Disney animated hits like Tangled and Big Hero 6. It doesn’t have a release date, but it will come out for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.
