Kingdom Hearts III

Kingdom Hearts III may be buried under a mountain of confusing lore, but at its core it is still a good time for fans of the series. The combat is flashy, fast, and packed with the kind of over-the-top spectacle Kingdom Hearts thrives on. Even when the story gets completely lost in itself, there is still plenty of charm in the Disney world-hopping and heartfelt nonsense. It may not be the cleanest entry, but it is still classic Kingdom Hearts fun. Also, Baymax is here, which automatically earns it extra points.
