It is previously hinted that "Kingdom Hearts" game series is hinted to have the highest chance of being ported to the Nintendo Switch console as there have been titles that have been ported to Nintendo like "Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days" and "Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance" and "Kingdom Hearts 3" could be added to the list.

Meanwhile, "Kingdom Hearts 3" might introduce several characters from "Final Fantasy" as a survey from Famitsu (via KH Insider) revealed that five names that fans want in the sequel.

The choices include Noctis from "Final Fantasy XV," Claire "Lightning" Farron from "Final Fantasy XIII," Bartz from "Final Fantasy V," Zidane from "Final Fantasy iX" and a Chocobo.

The poll accounted for more than 500 votes, and Noctis emerged victorious by a margin of 36. Could this mean that gaming fans might see Noctis alongside Sora in "Kingdom Hearts 3" soon?

The "Kingdom Hearts" game franchise has been known to have both Disney and "Final Fantasy" characters together and several famous names from the series already made their appearances such as Cloud Strife, Squall Leonhart, Aerith Gainsborough, Zack Fair, Tidus, Selphie, Wakka, Sephiroth, Auron and many more.
