The Kingdom Hearts series stepped up its frame rates with the Kingdom Hearts 1.5 and 2.5 Remix collections. With these games, instead of the standard 30fps that came with each of the collection's original, non-remastered titles, players could now experience the Kingdom Hearts series in 60fps, which was, and still is, the basic standard of modern games — for consoles anyway. PC is a different story.

PC allows games to take their frame rate up to 120 and beyond, and the Kingdom Hearts series is the latest set of games that the platform has given this ability to. Kingdom Hearts released on PC through the Epic Games Store today, and upon booting it up, fans discovered that they could not only set the game's frame rate to 120 — twice what consoles can handle — but they could "unlock" it too, meaning if their PC can go higher than 120, then so can Kingdom Hearts.

Setting up the new frame rate is pretty simple. A Games Settings option sits on the title screen of whatever Kingdom Hearts title players have chosen to play through. Press the "Esc" key to access it and arrive at the Display setting. Frame Rate will be the third option from the bottom, and clicking it will present four frame rates to choose from, including 30fps, 60fps, 120fps, and unlocked. After confirming the selection, back out and boot up the game. While in-game, players can change the setting again once they unlock the menu option.

Unfortunately, while the idea of pushing the frame rate beyond 60fps sounds good in theory, it's not the best method in practice — at least not for the older Kingdom Hearts titles. The 60fps frame rate consistently crashed or interfered with how the older games played to a noticeable degree. PC seems to have started the same way — trying to take the game beyond what it's originally capable of almost always forces it to crash. These problems could be the PC port itself, though, as most modern games experience many issues on their release day.

It'll likely take some time before Square Enix provides a fix for these problems, and even then, there's no guarantee that the older titles will be able to handle the unlocked frame rate on everyone's PC. Even Kingdom Hearts 3D, the latest full title released before Kingdom Hearts 3, came out nearly ten years ago and on a handheld system, no less. To expect it and the other older games to move like Kingdom Hearts 3 might be pushing it.
