Big Hero 6 is officially confirmed as a world in Kingdom Hearts 3. Kingdom Hearts Executive Producer, Shinji Hashimoto took the stage today in Anaheim, California at the D23 Expo alongside the loveable Baymax! The Big Hero 6 concept art, created by Square Enix’s 1st Production Department artists and shown at the event, features Sora riding on top of Baymax, a healthcare robot, and fighting a darker, more sinister version of Baymax who was corrupted by the game’s antagonist. Kingdom Hearts’ official Youtube also released footage of Roy Conli, producer of both Tangled and Big Hero 6. He explains how Big Hero 6 and the fictional city of San Fransokyo is a perfect fit for Kingdom Hearts.
