Master Eraqus 1,340 Posted May 13, 2015 I will only be excited if they confirm that it is released globally. Please Square Enix, do it. I know it's gonna happen cause Nomura was sorry for not releasing the Final Mixes outside of Japan until the HD Remix, but just say it's gonna release globally already! It's plot is completely important to KH, especially KH3. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RikuFangirl2008 1,368 Posted May 13, 2015 It might be, or might not be. Who knows. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeybladeLordCheeseCurd 1,542 Posted May 13, 2015 I'm betting the only reason it's called Unchained is because it's not only for computers anymore. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gosoxtim 52 Posted May 13, 2015 It might be, or might not be. Who knows. one of kh insiders translators managed to translate it and he said this After a simple read through, the most important information is that this smartphone game is created mainly for the purpose of localization. The card system will be toned down to not make it look too much like a "card game" to attract more players, and the party chat function will also be available. Edit: In other words, the reason why they make this smartphone version is to be able to localize it in the future. You guys should be thankful since there is no way they will earn as much revenue from Unchained as compared to the original Chi. So this move is really for the international fans.

I wasn't sure about all of this, after reading this post. That's why I said what I said. At first, I though it was coming our way, then I read this and thinking it might be possible or might not be possible for it to come. I was a bit confused when reading this. Believe me when I say this, I am thankful for this. I'm glad it's finally coming here. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
