Bringing back Aladdin instead of giving Lilo and Stitch a full world would be idiotic. Nomura knows everybody is sick of Aladdin.

Same could be said about BBS when Olympus Coliseum was the last Disney world to be officially announced just one month before the game came out.
Well to be fair Aladdin is the 2nd most recurring Disney World in the KH series behind Olympus having appeared in almost every game except BBS and DDD. Not to mention it will provide closure to the world by adapting the third movie, the King of Thieves just like how Olympus and the Pirates worlds are set to conclude their storylines in the game, in addition its also the Desert level which makes it distinct from the other Disney worlds.Bringing back Aladdin instead of giving Lilo and Stitch a full world would be idiotic.

Well the grouped together worlds. Early, Middle and Late.
Early = Hercules, Twilight Town, Toy Story and Monsters Inc.
So going by this we can assume that the stages are going to be grouped in 4. Each having 3 Disney and 1 Original. Then to round it up to 13 (as this is a significant number in the series) we'd probably have the final original world, taking up the total tally to 13 worlds with 9 Disney and 4 Original.
Four original worlds? At this point I can see Destiny Islands, Radiant Garden, Keyblade Graveyard as fully playable worlds. There is also the matter of Cable Town and the final world Nomura spoke of(unless those two are one in the same)
It could be that Keyblade Graveyard and the final world count as one if the former is the entrance to the other. I think the originals will be Twilight Town, two of either Radiant Garden, Cable Town, or Box Art World, and finally Keyblade Graveyard/Kingdom Hearts.
I am actually pretty convinced that the box art world will appear because a) it could be where the KH versions of the TWEWY characters live and b) it could be more of Nomura implementing ideas from Versus XIII with Insomnia being mostly gutted from FFXV. Both Shibuya in TWEWY and Insomnia from FFXV are based on the Shibuya/Shinjuku area of Tokyo that the KH3 box art is inspired by. So yeah, it just seems like more ideas from other games bleeding into this series.
I still think Radiant Garden is likely due to Nomura's comments that FF characters new and old would be in KH3. And Radiant Garden is where the majority of them live
In regards to the city shown in the box art, I that may actually be the inside of Kingdom Hearts. Would explain why the actual moon is absent
What if Cable Town is an extended Land of Departure? It gets restored, and Sora, Donald and Goofy visit The Land of Departure/Cable Town after it's been restored. Could be a great catalyst to trigger the trios memories of Chain of Memories.
Perhaps it will be 9 main Disney worlds in the early, middle, late set with 3 of them in each set. The other 10th Disney world could be a subworld/mini-game world such as 100 Acre Wood, of course, we don't know if it will be the mini-game world once again as even if the world was in the leaks back in December it only had 4-6 files of 100 Acre Wood that were related to Rabbit's house. There have been recent discussions on the other forums that Winnie the Pooh could be a summoning Link instead due to Sora's strong connection with him and/or the world itself could appear in some shape or form but not as an actual Disney world much like how it ONLY appeared as a command board mini-game in BBS.Hopefully 10 Disney worlds, 3 original worlds. Only 9 Disney worlds will be disappointing, tbh. Hopefully KH4 won't take 4ever after this saga's over if it is only 9 Disney worlds. It'll be nice to play a game without all the Xehanort / trios baggage again.
That's how I envision it 9 Main Disney worlds with one of them being a subworld and the remaining 4-5 being Original Worlds, let's see what Famitsu and the other articles have to say when they interview Nomura in the next few weeks.My hope is for ten Disney worlds and five original(Twilight Town, Destiny Island, Radiant Garden, Cable Town, Keyblade Graveyard/Final World). Nomura might not limit himself to thirteen worlds for thematic purpose.
