The Kingdom Hearts IV Title
Kingdom Hearts IV begins the Lost Master Arc, a new storyline for the franchise. Sora is back, but as you can see from the teaser and screenshots, he has a new look. Around the 4:05 mark, the KHIV segment of the trailer begins:

Sora fights a big shadow monster in the midst of a city street in the trailer, which shows some gameplay footage. Quadratum is a new locale in Kingdom Hearts 3, described by Square Enix as a “vast, expansive city built in a magnificent, realistic setting unlike anything ever seen before.”
Quadratum, as well as the overall gameplay and story, have been kept under wraps. Donald and Goofy will both return in KHIV, as will a new “mystery” new character named Strelitzia.
Although Kingdom Hearts 3 was eventually published on PC, Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch, with the latter being a cloud-streaming version, there’s no word on what platforms KHIV will be accessible for. Similarly, no release date has been announced.
Two new games, two new logos.
