According to FF-Reunion, the latest issue of Famitsu Weekly has revealed a small detail about Kingdom Hearts 3D, now known to have the full title of Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. Although it was previously known that both Sora and Riku are playable characters, the newly revealed detail is that during gameplay, the player will be forced to suddenly switch between the two characters.

Shoot! And here I was thinking they'd be two separate storylines, like Birth by Sleep and Chain of Memories. Oh well, some people thought it was somewhat monotonous to visit a world third times in BBS, so I guess Nomura wanted to fix that with 3D.

This sounds kind of like what I was thinking...That throughout the story, it flips back and forth between what's going on with Sora and what's going on with Riku, so whoever's turn it is in the story at that given time, that's who you're playing as.

but you can randomly switch even in battle...... i wonder....

so in essence it will feel like the limit with Riku in KH2, right?.

 

back to back? like what it said at the end of RE:COM?

Not quite. You'll literally switch between the two.

Like, one minute you'll be Sora, then the next you'll be Riku.

It will be more like the 2 minute switch off between Sora and Riku during the last stage of KH2 Xemnas fight (When you play as Riku to save Sora)

 

But this time you'll receive more chances to do so through out the game and you'll have equal gameplay time between the two
