Kingdom Hearts III pre-order bonus Keyblade abilities revealed

[KHWaterBlock 296]

Yesterday, Tetsuya Nomura announced that during the XIII days to go countdown until the launch of Kingdom Hearts III, there would be an announcement each day. Today is the second day of this countdown, and the announcement was showing off the abilities of the three pre-order bonus Keyblades. 

The "Midnight Blue" Keyblade, which you receive by pre-ordering Kingdom Hearts III through PlayStation boosts the power of the blizzard magic, shown below in the video he uploaded.
While equipped, Blizzagan will become selectable in Situation Commands

 

The "Phantom Green" Keyblade, which you receive by pre-ordering Kingdom Hearts III through Xbox boosts the power of thunder magic, shown below in the video he uploaded.

While equipped, Thundagan will become selectable in Situation Commands

The "Dawn Till Dusk" Keyblade, which you receive by pre-ordering Kingdom Hearts III through Amazon boosts the power of fire magic, shown below in the video he uploaded.

While equipped, Firagan will become selectable in Situation Commands

 

The quote in the image tweeted, "We thought you might be able to use a couple more half-pints." is referencing the epilogue of 0.2 -A Fragmentary Passage- where Donald calls Sora a half-pint of a hero.

I pre ordered a copy through the Square Enix store, for a PS4, re that qualify?

It's pretty cool to see that the pre-order keyblades aren't just re-colours of the keyblades they're based on even adding the symbols of the console they're linked to when landing an attack. Those abilities to boosts to magic doesn't seem too over the top in missing out if you go for one or the other. I'm still set on pre-ordering from GAME. ( ´ ▽ ` )

That's cool, and as we found out earlier the 'transformation' for the Dawn Till Dusk is Second Form, like it is with the Kingdom Key, but what are the Phantom Green and Midnight Blue Keyblade's transformations?

I really like these keyblades a lot and what i notice from this announcement videos is that the combat system is better and faster than before don't you think guys??  Also i pre-order kingdom hearts 3 through Playstation store so i will get the midnight blue skin keyblade

That feel when you pre-ordered through Amazon but don't live in the US so no bonus. ?

The box art was too important to order digital.

Second Form as well. You can see it pop up as a Situation Command for Midnight Blue at around 0:07 in the video.

Specifically, they call it "Second Form M", so maybe there's something different, like a different finisher.

Also, they don't show Phantom Green's, but it's probably "Second Form P".

I preordered a physical copy so I won't be getting any of these, but it's still nice to see.

[KH4Real 749]

I didn't care if those were just normal skin Keyblades
But I needed to get the Midnight Blue Keyblade. This is nice.

I can't read Japanese, so I had no idea.

Well that's a shame, was kinda hoping for something special since it was the Star Seeker Keyblade.

Looks pretty dope. Can't wait!

[Exiblade7 1,917]

I'm a sucker for ice spells, so I'm so glad I pre ordered it on PSN!

Thank you for sharing this with us, Aquaberry!

Well I think that it's pretty awesome that these special skins for the Star Seeker keyblade yield these bonus perks with spells! It makes them more than just skins!

Nope. I was thinking about it but decided against it.
