Kingdom Hearts 4 is currently in development.This article is about the original game. On the other hand, Kingdom Hearts 4's Sora might have to be more mature as far as the story goes, and this would call for him to grow up in between games. While it is possible that a time skip could take place during Kingdom Hearts 4 or for time to work differently in Quadratum, as it has been confirmed in Kingdom Hearts: Dark Road that times passes at a different speed in every world, it is likely that Sora will be 17 years old based on what players know from previous games and what was shown in Kingdom Hearts 4's trailer. While that game didn't have much of a story as it mostly served as a recap of the games in the Dark Seeker Saga, its narrative section shows Kairi and Riku to be the same age as they were in the ReMind DLC for Kingdom Hearts 3. Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory also gives fans reason to believe that Sora is still 17 years old. While Sora was 16 throughout the majority of the third mainline game, parts of Kingdom Hearts 3's ReMind DLC take place a year later, making Sora 17 years old when he encounters Yozora.īased on what fans already know about Kingdom Hearts 4, it seems that Sora will have barely aged since his fight with Yozora in Kingdom Hearts 3, so it is very likely that he is still 17 years old despite looking somewhat different in the trailer for the upcoming game. This means that he had gotten a year older during the events of Kingdom Hearts: Coded, Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance, Kingdom Hearts: A Fragmentary Passage, or at some point between those three installments. While it is unknown when his next birthday was, fans know Sora to be 16 in Kingdom Hearts 3. However, at the end of this game, Sora had to go to sleep in a pod for nearly a year, which would make him 15 in Kingdom Hearts 2. While it is unknown how recent his birthday was, it is believed by many fans that he was still 14 in the following game, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. Though there are some flashbacks in that game to when Sora was younger, and he was only 4 in Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, knowing the Kingdom Hearts timeline is a good starting point for figuring out his age in Kingdom Hearts 4.

As long as there aren't any unexpected time skips and time works the same in Kingdom Hearts 4's Quadratum as it does in most of the worlds that players have previously visited from other games, it is very likely that Sora will have only aged a bit since Kingdom Hearts 3's ReMind DLC. As he has gotten older since the original installment and Sora's birthday has never been celebrated in any of the games, some players may be unsure of how old he will be in Kingdom Hearts 4, which is currently in development.Īlthough Sora's exact age may be difficult to determine, fans may have picked up on a few major clues about how much time has passed between past games and Kingdom Hearts 4.
