Tokyo Game Show 2018: Square Enix booth featuring new Kingdom Hearts decorum and merchandise

[Yoshirai 145]

Tokyo Games Show 2018 is on its second day already, and Kingdom Hearts III has already established a major presence there! Square Enix's booth features different activities like the Premium Showcase demo of Kingdom Hearts III, to the exclusive merchandise showcase of action figures or various goodies.

 

 

 

 

The booth also displayed the fully colored Nomura's artwork for Kingdom Hearts' 15th Anniversary, which was originally a monocromatic version. This version also appears to be slightly different from the original one, were Sora looked to be petting an unidentified animal (now absent). The artwork has been displayed in a molded form, in front of various characters' frames:

 

 

 

 

Along with playing demo, fans can also enjoy taking pictures with real Kingdom Keys in front of the giant backdrop of Kingdom Hearts III's box cover art.

 

 

 

 

 

Frames depicting various scenes/characters from the series and similar decorative elements can also be found around the booth:

 

 

 

One of the main things on which many fans had the chance to take a look at, were the items and merchandise that were exclusively showcased at TGS for the first time. Among those, an Axel Bring Arts Prototype was shown along with previously announced figures like Toy Box Sora, Donald, and Goofy, and Halloween/Christmas Town Sora, and the now finished Kingdom Hearts III Bring Arts Kairi was also shown. Signed Yoko Shimomura CDs (Kingdom Hearts 10th Anniversary Fan Selection - Melodies & Memories -, Kingdom Hearts -HD 1.5 & 2.5 ReMIX- Original Soundtrack BOX, Kingdom Hearts Concert -First Breath- Album) are available for purchase.

 

 

 

 

 

A Sora drawing was also displayed on the booth, and many fan hinted to the similarity to the main menu art of Sora from 1 and 2, leading to speculations whether this will be the welcoming menu art when starting Kingdom Hearts III.

 

 

 

Two different limited edition PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 4 Pro were also displayed.
