Kingdom Hearts was the first game in what would become an incredibly popular and successful video game series. The game was originally developed by Square (now called Square Enix) in 2002 for the Sony PlayStation 2. The game was a collaboration between Square and Disney and combines characters and locations from Disney animated films with Square?s own Final Fantasy series.
Kingdom Hearts is an action RPG which follows the main character Sora who?s joined by Donald Duck and Goofy as they team up with different Final Fantasy and Disney characters to defeat the forces of evil.

The game was later re-released as an International edition called Kingdom Hearts Final Mix with extra content and gameplay tweaks. The game was re-released a second time in 2013 in HD as part of the Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix collection.
