Mysterious 'DLC' menu appears with the Japanese Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue website update

[Jake 1,488]

The official Japanese Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue website has updated. This update divides the site with the 3 games in the collection, and a mysterious section called 'special/DLC'. While we're unsure what this section is, it could just be media/trailers.

 

 

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue releases on January 12, 2017 in Japan, and on January 24, 2017 everywhere else. An extended Tokyo Game Show 2016 trailer was released today.

 

What do you think the section is? Let us know in the comments below!

Please, no Square... don't start this... not with Kingdom Hearts...

I feel like this might be a quirk of the site design as opposed to actual confirmation of DLC in the game. I'm not sure what kind of DLC could even be tacked on to this. Maybe supplemental Back Cover chapters as the game has new seasons with new story?

Oh shit, so... we'd have to wait for Unchained to be updated to get to watch more in Backcover?... that sounds ridiculous

Behold, the future of KH, no more Re:s or Final Mixes, but DLCs galore!

[KairiKeybasH 851]

I´m pretty sure the DLC will be something not really that special.

In Japan, most game sites usually have a DLC section for, well, DLC extras, but also first press bonuses (in the form of DLCs, like bonus items, costumes, etc.) and store bonuses - like which stores you purchase the game from will give you different DLCs. It's likely that's what it is since it's also marked "Special" / DLC.

 

KH has never done this before, but based on the Japanese market, DLCs could be anything from an extra storyline to simply a new skin / costumes for characters.

[SpeedRave 59]

Oh no Square,please dont. I had a feeling that, this is coming.

I hope these DLCs are nothing special.  I wanna have a complete game,same with KH 3

It'll be better than the Final Mixes being Japan exclusive like how it was before the remixes.

It's probably just a PS4 background?

[-Justin- 2,111]

I'm thinking it's a PS4 theme. I can't really think of anything else as DLC, especially for a KH game.

Three words. Aqua. Bathing. Suit. 

 

Dont mind me, I've been destroyed by games like Fairy Fencer and Tales where that kind of fanservicy DLC is to be expected. 

[Hargleblargleboo 979]

Ohhhh no.

No no no no no...

You do this Square Enix, and you'll be the subject of a gigantic witch hunt. If it's just like a PS4 theme, that's fine, but please don't pull what I think you're going to pull.

I always thought that they would release Kingdom Hearts 3 in 2017, I suppose that's a little more unlikely now seeing as I don't think they have ever released two games within the same year

[WilliamNiira 34]

If there actually are DLC's, then I will officially kill a tree, then there will be less oxygen in the world.

 

Seriously though, it would be annoying as hell if I had to buy more content. I mean, I would buy it, but it wouldn't be as pleasing. If I buy a game, I want the full experience, I don't want to buy anything else then that I already bought.

[The Transcendent Key 12,109]

Hmm, this is interesting...but we shouldn't jump to any conclusions yet...we should just wait and see for what happens!

 

But, if this does end up meaning that 2.8 will be getting DLC, then I'll obviously buy it, because shucks, this is Kingdom Hearts!  But let's not jump into conclusions yet!

 

Thanks for informing us of this, Jake!

[Django Moore 62]

I get that this is on a next-gen system and all. But.. why?

Please don't do that to Kingdom Hearts, SE. 

(all complaining aside, I'll more than likely still give in and buy these. But still.)
