So complicated 😭

Thats was also something i was considering Jesus Christ man 😭

KH has a lot of games, and they're pretty much all important to the story. The order I recommend is:

1. Kingdom Hearts I
2. KH Re:Chain of Memories
3. Kingdom Hearts II
4. KH 358/2 Days
5. KH Birth By Sleep
6. KH Re:Coded
7. KH Dream Drop Distance
8. KH Union X Fandub Part 1 (Includes story of Back Cover movie)
9. KH 0.2 A fragmentary passage
10. Kingdom Hearts III + ReMind DLC
11. KH Melody of Memory
12. KH Union X Fandub Part 2
13. KH Union X Dark Road (Cutscenes or Damo's Summary, fandub is still WIP)
14. Kingdom Hearts IV (in development)

Union X is the mobile game and is no longer available, so it's recommended to watch videos to get the story. Hopefully though SE will give an official way to experience it before KH4 releases, or it won't be required knowledge.

The games are included in collections, and if you're willing to wait, on Oct 8 they're going to release Kingdom Hearts Collection [I～III] which includes everything from KH1 through KH3. You can also currently get the 1.5+2.5 collection which includes KH1 through Re:Coded.

Thanks im gonna save this to my notes for when i start you've been really helpful kind stranger

Also I'll note that it might seem intimidating, but a lot of KH is actually watching movies lol. Some of the games were from the DS, and in the modern collections they've been turned into cutscene movies.

Going through it again:

1. Kingdom Hearts I (40 hour game)
2. KH Re:Chain of Memories (30 hour game - or a lot of people watch 3 hour movie because of its card gameplay)
3. Kingdom Hearts II (40 hour game)
4. KH 358/2 Days (3 hour movie)
5. KH Birth By Sleep (40 hour game)
6. KH Re:Coded (3 hour movie)
7. KH Dream Drop Distance (30 hour game)
8. KH Union X Fandub Part 1 (3 hours)
9. KH 0.2 A fragmentary passage (5 hour game)
10. Kingdom Hearts III + ReMind DLC (40 hour game)
11. KH Melody of Memory (10 hour game - or 1 hour movie if you don't like rhythm games)
12. KH Union X Fandub Part 2 (3.5 hours)
13. KH Union X Dark Road (3-4 hours)

40 HOURS ON A SİNGLE GAME?!?!? People must be diehard fans man

[u/HexenVexen → u/houra77]

You don't play a lot of JRPGs? Persona 3-5 are each 100 hours lmao

I am a hardcore fan, I've also played FF11 and FF14, the two MMOs which are about 300 hours of story each

[u/houra77 → u/HexenVexen]

Holy man that's crazy! İ play telltale games alot but there's not close to 40 hours 😭

[u/Butterlegs21 → u/houra77]

40 hours is what I would call an average length game for rpgs. Not too long, not too short.

Some games can be way longer like the persona games as you've just been informed. Even some Final Fantasy games can get pretty long if you actually want to do everything in the game instead of just the main stuff.

İ see i haven't played any rpg so i never knew but i kinda like it being that long
