The World Ends With Youfan artist@caehum on Twitterhas showcased what Neku would look like in an HD remake or possiblyKingdom Hearts 4through an immaculate 3D render. Since its publishing on Monday, it has received over 2,500 likes.
so .. i finally made the hd neku sakuraba model i’ve been wanting to make for a while and it’s like halfway done after an hour of workpic.twitter.com/wYSeirI1iI
The 3D model looks like it’s ripped straight from a modernKingdom Heartsgame, and has plenty of detail around the face and the odd jacket that Neku wears. The more realistic take on Neku is quite different from the most recent gameNEO: The World Ends With You,which takes on a graphic novel art style instead.
The World Remade With You
It would be cool to see a realistic take on the original DS game through a remake in the future. Ithas been re-releasedon Switch with aFinal Remixversion, however, to mixed results.
“Final Remix‘s failure to utilize the extent of the Switch hardware shows a lack of understanding as to why so many people consider the Nintendo DS original to be the masterpiece it is,” saidour review.
Neku is expected to appear inKingdom Hearts 4by some fans. InKingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance,Neku and Sora promise to see each other in Shibuya. After the events ofKH3,Sora actually ends up in an area inspired by the real-life location. We could see Neku in a model like this, in an official capacity.
If you don’t know where Neku comes from, he’s the main character of a cult classic JRPG calledThe World Ends With You.It’s one of the highest-rated DS games at an88 Metacritic score. There was then a follow-up sequel calledNEO: The World Ends With Youfeaturing a new character named Rindo.
“NEO: The World Ends with Youis a sequel worth waiting for,” said our8/10 review. “It brings together many of the best concepts from the DS original but in a more approachable and accessible experience.”
