Square Enix Announces Their Gamescom 2019 Lineup

We now have word of what Square Enix will be bringing to Gamescom 2019 this year, and it's a mix of awesome and confusion as to what's coming. According to their announcement, they will have playable demos of Final Fantasy VII Remake, Final Fantasy XIV Online, Kingdom Hearts III, Marvel's Avengers, and Trials of Mana. It's cool that most of these games will be here, but we're a little confused at to why KH3 is making an appearance since it's already out.
