One interesting piece of information that was mentioned was the Link system. We have a translation of this part, which you can read below. (Translations by KH13 staff member Mio-chan)

"In KH Birth By Sleep, the Dimentional Link system allowed you to temporary borrow the power of a distant ally. Fulfilling certain conditions, Ariel and Meow Wow (among others) who have connected to Sora’s heart will appear and do various effects."

I'm expecting it to have the same information as we got in the new trailers, but if they do show more information about the game, i'm all for it

[ocean's rage 772]

maybe we'll get the official name for the world

[Nathan Hatton 274]

maybe we'll get the official name for the world

Should be Monstropolis. Idk why it wouldn't be as that is the name of the city.

well they called the tangled world kingdom of corona instead of just corona, its a safe bet that it will be monsteropolis but you never know

[The Transcendent Key 12,109]

Thanks for informing us about this, Leamax!

 

Ooh, I can't wait until this article comes out in full! I wanna see if Nomura divulges some new information regarding the game! Here's hoping!

[Elias Jose 36]

I wanna know how this link system works..Or how keyblade transformations and drive forms are connected..I want a more balanced game and not an overpowered Sora

Kingdom of Corona is a very "Disney" way of saying things. Frozen does the same thing "The kingdom of Arendelle" etc. It seems a little unusual because we don't have kingdoms in the present day. But I see your point!

[Jiminy's Journal 13]

Meow Wow being Dimension Link explains things.

[Dustin Lübbers 933]

seems reasonable but I think the we wont even leave the company to go to the city
