"Kingdom Hearts" fans and players are in for a treat because the game answers a huge chunk of story lore and gives easter eggs from the main series. Also, as per tradition, "Kingdom Hearts Union Cross" ends with a lot more questions than what you originally started with.
"Kingdom Hearts Union Cross" is a mobile game with a spin-off storyline from the original series. Although the "Kingdom Hearts" series is a lot older in terms of release, the game acts as the prequel to everything related to the main lore.

There we go! Huge thanks to everyone who supported me today, I was actually pleased to see so many people interested in the ending of KHUX.
I owe this game a lot, so I'm both proud and happy I could work on the most important translation one last time. pic.twitter.com/xjuz2iF7X6
However, note that this is a fan translation. The official translation and Global version of "Kingdom Hearts Union Cross" have not received their final update.
Everglow did a great job of accurately translating the game's ending. Ready your tissue paper because you get to witness yet another "Kingdom Hearts" classic tragedy ending for the main characters. Ephemer, Skuld, and Ventus, in particular, will share a sad goodbye. You'll also get a few teaser shots for the beginning of Organization 13.
'Kingdom Hearts Union Cross' Final Update Scenes and More

Noisy Pixel reported that when the final update was first released back in April, consisting of a 20-minute story cutscene with no gameplay, too many questions were left unanswered during its conclusion. However, a final update was dropped at 3 PM JST for Japan servers on May 31. Japanese players often get their updates ahead of time, and their secondary conclusion was released (the video translated above).
Unfortunately, the Global version and official English translation have made no other announcements since May 14, as tweeted above.
Regardless, the "Kingdom Hearts Union Cross" official services are expected to end on June 29. After that, the game would transition to an offline "theater mode" for interested fans who want to continue gaming.
This unofficially brings the conclusion to the long-running "Kingdom Hearts Union Cross" game. However, players can still look forward to unlocking the ending themselves when the official game version goes live.
The "Kingdom Hearts" series often leave puzzling conclusions and ambiguous endings. "Kingdom Hearts Union Cross" breaks the tradition. From what has been released, it seems that it reaches its official conclusion this coming June 29, both for the storyline and the game franchise.
