Earlier this week, the Kingdom Hearts Union \u03c7 Dark Road application was unexpectedly delisted from the Apple and Google Play stores.<\/p>\n
The Kingdom Hearts Union \u03c7 Dark Road mobile game contained pivotal lore, key story details, and an in-depth plot for the basis of much of the Kingdom Hearts series. Unchained X–previously known as Union X–and Dark Road did receive a cutscene compilation people can watch to experience the story, but playing the game seems to now be a bygone pasttime for Kingdom Hearts fans.<\/p>\n
This delisting poses great problems since one of the main characters introduced in the mobile game, Strelitzia, also appears in the first Kingdom Hearts 4 trailer<\/a> and is teased to play a major role in the new installment alongside Sora.<\/p>\n Delisting games abruptly without an announcement is nothing new. Just this past April, Capcom delisted three of its games<\/a>, and according to the Video Game History Foundation<\/a>, 87% of video games released in the United States before 2010 are “critically endangered,” making these games lost and\/or susceptible to disappearing.<\/p>\n Fans hope that Kingdom Hearts Union \u03c7 Dark Road will receive a remake<\/a> or make its way outside of the mobile space. Clicking on the Google Play link<\/a> for Kingdom Hearts Union \u03c7 Dark Road brings up an error screen.<\/p>\n Square Enix has yet to make an official announcement of pulling the plug on Union \u03c7 Dark Road, even though the game’s official website is still up and running<\/a>.<\/p>\n
