I already know 3 going to pure magic! I'm going to get surprised again, just like Dream Drop Distance.

[143436611Xxcc 1,105]

Pure Magic huh? That made me really confident in the games development.

Guys, DOES THIS MEAN WE START KH3 PLAYING AS EITHER YOUNG XEHANORT OR ERAQUS?!? I mean, KH2 started with us playing as Roxas and It would be a good way of having the "Dive into the heart" section.

UHMYGOODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

 

 

BUT YOU KNEW THAT DIDN'T YOU?

 

That was the first thing I thought of when I read the title.

That would be really cool. I'm hoping to be able to play as YX, I think it'll be cool.

That might just be one of the best ideas I've ever heard.

I always thought the best choice to begin in KH3 was Kairi but I love this idea! Have mai laike.

What if it starts with Xehanort's Station of awakening?!  :ohmy:

[Sorarocks93 678]

Awesome way to start it that's for sure. I imagine after that scene the new song will start playing.

[VeNate13 144]

I sense a weird disturbance in the force! It's like someone asked if star wars was going to be in Kingdom Hearts 3 and square responded by saying no comment which has a feeling of a very likely yes! And it feels like Xehanort and Eraqus were the two characters in the teaser for Kingdom Hearts 3!

Well, the article said "I told Yasue, who is bi-lingual and speaks both Japanese and English, that the first thing everyone thought when Disney bought Lucasfilm was that now Kingdom Hearts could have Star Wars. He laughed and said he couldn't comment."

 

So... maybe.

Every time they laugh and say no comment it seems like the answer appears to be yes!

[TheKingdomkid 1,194]

This makes me both very excited and very confused and I like it

[HumbleGamer 76]

I think that at the beginning it might be Terra's station of awakening since Eraqus and Xehanort are both inside Terra and who knows how the battle inside of Terra is going at the moment.

Ah, I knew it! So let me see here... we press New Game on the KH3 main menu. It leads us to either the opening or this segment. Once we start to see this segment, it will probably show the background of when Eraqus and Xehanort were training under a Master. We might even be able to play as either Eraqus or Xehanort. And to think about it, it's usually the numbered titles that have a new character you play as in the beginning of the game (KH2). Since this is the 3rd, this could be possible. Now if we are able to play, we'd be able to explore the world they live in and train (get used to the new battle system Nomura has developed for us: in other words, this segment could be the tutorial segment of the game, just minus the Disney attractions lol). Maybe we'll have the ability to play as Eraqus and/or Xehanort for a couple of days like Roxas in KH2 until we reach a certain day where "everything changes". And by this, I mean on that day we should see the cutscene they shown in the new teaser. And as soon as Xehanort says those last words, the camera focuses on Eraqus for a few seconds, who looks pretty disturbed from that statement and then boom... fade to black.... logo pops up. Well? I think that sounds pretty accurate, don't you agree? (I could be totally wrong, but who knows? I think this would be an awesome idea and would set the stage for the rest of KH3 perfectly in my opinion). Idk... I'm just glad Nomura thought of putting this interesting cutscene in the beginning of the game... so many possibilities and assumptions

A lot of theme park action...oh god.Honestly, this looks like the stupidest thing I've seen in the series yet. It's just so clunky and out of place and pointless. At least summons had an explanation, how the hell are they going to explain giant rides coming out of nowhere?? It's just so...unbelievable kiddish and clunky and stupid.Idk, they better prove me wrong or else I'm going to be a little annoyed. Though, that will probably just mean I'll play the game without using that ability.

[Sora96 17,256]

Wooh.

[Kittenz 4,281]

As a female I want to play as another female character more. Kairi is a main character since the beginning and deserves it more than new characters.

It usually means ''No'' as well. Depends on how he laughed.....he may of been making fun of the idea for all you know.

 

Star wars wouldn't fit in a game with anime style characters and mickey mouse.
