KH13 impressions of the new Kingdom Hearts III footage

DChiuch

By DChiuch

At both the North American and European launch events for Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX, new Kingdom Hearts III footage was shown off, with more information promised to be revealed in 2015. This footage was only intended for those who attended the event, and as a result was not released online.

 

Thankfully, staff member AndrewHankinson was able to attend the European launch event in London, and has written an exclusive first-hand account at what was contained within. This can be read below. For impressions of the rest of the event, please check out the full event coverage.

 

During the presentation at the European Launch Event in London for Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX, the logo for Kingdom Hearts III was displayed on the screen. The host Dan Seto (Square Enix Europe community manager for Japanese titles) was ‘confused’ at seeing the logo appear, but then Tai Yasue (co-director of the Kingdom Hearts series) and Rie Nishi (producer of the Kingdom Hearts series) intervene and say they put it in. We were all reminded that we could NOT take photos or film at all throughout the presentation and especially for this. Then the Kingdom Hearts III teaser began…

 

It starts off with sketches and 3D models of different new Heartless. One is like the ‘Solider’ Heartless with wings and another Heartless looked like a bull with the body of a human.

 

A clip appears with a white background and Sora in his Kingdom Hearts II outfit, but changes to his Valor and Wisdom from outfits through out the clip. He is using one Keyblade and it transforms into the gun-like and canon-like weapons similar to ones seen in the 2013 teaser. Large angelic wings also appear on Sora.

 

Concept art of ‘Cable Town’ fades in; the town has little buildings situated on 3 hills with a big tower situated on the centre hill. It zooms slightly in and a library/study picture fades in. The static picture of the library/study then fades into a clip; there is a large window at the centre which has curtains flowing from the breeze and soft lighting which is realistic as it glows into the room from outside. It cuts to and plans across a table (next to the central window) with a chess board and chess pieces (one of which has a Mickey Mouse head on top). It then cuts to Sora, in his Kingdom Hearts II outfit, walking towards the table with the chess board and picks up one of the pieces. The clips with Sora show his hair reacting more realistically to his movements from the swinging in the fighting clips and him walking in the library/study.

 

At the end, a message appears promising fans that there will be more news about Kingdom Hearts III in 2015.

I wonder if any of those Impressions include dropping your computer and screaming like an over-excited banshee through the neighborhood.

I'm liking the sound of all this....and the way it was presented sounded humorous with the first guy getting confused. xD

 

I mean, Valor and Wisdom Form possibly returning, Sora with Angelic Wings, Keyblade Transformations and this new "Cable Town"? And everything is super pretty?! I am very down for that! :D

We really need someone who can draw really well to go to these things. It's not that my imagination is bad, but when someone explains something complicated, visuals are the best.

 

Also, hair.

I kinda doubt we're gonna see the video. This seems like a very ROUGH ROUGH ROUGH draft kind of thing. It's a nice treat for fans behind closed doors, but not publicly publish.Hope I'm wrong though...

I'm SURE that's not the case, that would be the most stupid thing they can do, mate. Plus, what's the point? As if there's some kind of difference between those who were there and those who weren't, we're all fans at the same way! If they were afraid to show something "rough" publicly, they wouldn't have shown it at all. Besides, what's more rough than that first Kingdom Hearts III announcement teaser they showed back in last year E3? lol

But why would they show off things that may or may not be in the final version of the game? There's no difference in the fans, but Square has showed stuff behind doors before. There is still an early KH3D trailer we have yet to see. The one where Sora wakes up in the end and is standing next to Kairi.

But that's just the deal about Alpha/Beta-trailers, they are supposed to show how far development is at a certain point, no matter if that stuff is or isn't going to make it to the final product. If there are old trailers that are yet to be seen, probably there's a deeper reason than that behind the fact they weren't shown. I just don't think this is the case, it wouldn't make sense to me since they need to hype people up, not pissing them off

*Paces nervously back and forth in my room, looking at the screen, clicking on the home button every minute to check and see if the damn trailer is already up.*  M-must...see...trailer...now!!!!  *sits in a corner and rocks myself back and forth while sucking my thumb and laughing to myself.*  Oh, I can be patient, I'm patient, I'm a patient guy...sure, the trailer was behind closed doors, so what?  I'm sure Nomura will release it online soon...HE HAS TO!!!!  ALL THIS FRESH INFORMATION WE RECEIVED MUST BE WITNESSED BY OUR OWN EYES!!!! :D

And it's not going to be released to the public? Damn, I really wanted to see how the Unreal 3 engine compares to Luminous. oh well, maybe well get some of these clips mixed in with the new trailers that will come out next year (at least I hope that's what they mean by "news")
