So much of the challenge and technique of the series was lost in Kingdom Hearts 3, and it would be awesome to see some mods that could help bring that back. The mod at the top of my list would overall the combat in KH3 and return it to the more weighty and fast-paced action of Kingdom Hearts 2. I like these types of QoL mods, but modders can go much further with Kingdom Hearts. There’s also a mod that removes all of the wall effects, which improves the game simply by taking an underdeveloped mechanic out of it. One I would recommend is the Re:Mind Ability Integration mod that rewards you with the DLC abilities as you progress through the game rather than unlocking all of them at once when you finish the main story. There’s a simple mod for changing KH3 Vanitas into his much cooler Remnant form, a mod to replace the Twilight Town train with Thomas the Tank Engine, and a mod called Kairi In A White Dress that “gives Kairi a nice white dress.” It’s borderline, but I’ll allow it.īeyond these texture and model swaps, there are just a handful of mods that actually affect gameplay. There are also a few mods that change the models of other characters.

Right now, you can replace Sora with either Roxas or Cloud and change out several of the keyblades for different models. This isn’t surprising, considering asset swaps are some of the easiest mods to do and people seem to like reskinning characters and changing the models. The Kingdom Hearts 3 mods that are available today are mostly asset swaps. If there are mods out there for 1.5 +2.5, 2.8, or Melody of Memory, I haven’t been able to find them. The only mods available on NexusMods are all for Kingdom Hearts 3.

There’s a ton of potential in KH mods, as long as they stay PG, of course. In fact, mods for Kingdom Hearts are pretty scarce so far. In the two weeks since the games came out on PC, surprisingly, I haven’t had to make one call to the horny police.

The cast of Kingdom Hearts are some of the most beloved and innocent (and underaged) characters in all of gaming, so of course, modders are probably frothing at the mouth to defile them. When it was announced that the entire Kingdom Hearts franchise was coming to EGS last month, I was terrified.
