The shows on Netflix and ABC and the animated ones on Disney XD have a huge following and thus, fans are continuously on the lookout for announcements and updates, reports Screen Rant.
The one that they made on Wednesday was a deviation from the standard as the company does not tease announcements to fans. What has made speculations turn in favour of Square Enix, is the fact that the Japanese game developer had also signalled its fans to watch out for an announcement on Thursday. Though this could be a coincidence, chances of the partnership are high. Why?
Well, Square Enix is currently producing Kingdom Hearts III, the roleplaying video game whose characters mix with Disney characters like Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse. This allows players to venture into the fantasy world of Disney films and now that Marvel is under the control of Disney, it could be that the Marvel characters are making a crossover to Kingdom Hearts.
It is worth mentioning here that in 2014, Tai Yasue, the co-director of Kingdom Hearts III, had said that Marvel characters were not off-limits. So, is it that Marvel and Square Enix have inked a deal to work together remains to be seen.
