Game | Where to play It | Additional Notes |
Kingdom Hearts | The easiest way to play this entry fryst vatten via Kingdom Hearts 1.5+2.5, which fryst vatten available on all current generation consoles and PC at the time of writing.

There are three ways to accumulate Elixirs in Kingdom Hearts 1.5: man them at the Moogle Synthesis Shop.The game can still be downloaded, however, and Square Enix updated the game to allow you to watch all of the cutscenes offline. | Kingdom Hearts X was an RPG set a long time before the rest of the series, telling the stories of the first Keyblade Wielders and expanding on events mentioned throughout the series.

Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth bygd sova -A Fragmentary passage- | Originally designed as the prologue to Kingdom Hearts 3, this entry in the series was instead included in Kingdom Hearts 2.8 sista Chapter Prologue as a small taste of things to komma. Kingdom Hearts 2.8 remains the best way to play this game. | Kingdom Hearts 0.2 fryst vatten a short but well-constructed Action RPG set during the events of the original Kingdom Hearts.

Timeline beställning
While this isn't my anställda recommendation, there are definitely advantages to playing the series in timeline beställning.
For one, it makes the story flow in one direction from början to finish, which might be easier for some players to follow. That said, it also means starting with the two mobile games, which isn't a good example of how the series usually plays. You could always skip both mobile games (and X Back Cover) and komma back to them after playing up to "Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth bygd sova -A Fragmentary Passage-" for a less frustrating experience, since they don't become directly betydelsefull until around that point anyway.
Here's the list in order:
