The 25th anniversary logo, I believe, is new, and I can't imagine Square Enix whipping it up just for a D23 panel. When I first saw this news I convinced myself it was entirely possible that the panel could have absolutely nothing about KHIV, but I think I've talked myself around. It's still possible that all we get is a small tease, but I'm sure now that we'll get something new.
...Maybe a late 2027 release isn't too far-fetched...but I'm getting ahead of myself. We'll see what D23 holds!
One more announcement from the Direct that was easy to miss was that a non-cloud edition of 1.5+2.5 is finally coming to the Switch on the same day as the Switch 2 collections!
"well where am i supposed to go if i can't use those sites or apps???"

Have you heard of critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, now featuring a free trial up to level 70, including the award-winning expansions Heavensward and Stormblood, all with no play time limit?
Given Sora's design, this is almost certainly Quadratum, where we saw him in the announcement trailer (and the ending of KHIII besides). Quadratum just happens to look like present-day Shibuya is the thing, lol.
MAN. I was really looking forward to this game, not only on its own merits, but as something to tide us all over until KHIV—and now we're stuck with a whole lot more waiting and nothing.
Nice! I already got 1.5+2.5 on Epic—between a sale and a coupon, I spent only like thirteen dollars on it—but here's hoping down the line I can get the others on Steam for a good price!
