Master Eraqus 1,340 Posted July 19, 2015 so basically, we know that they are secretly developing DDDHD before they announced it. Pretty much yeah. I mean, look at all the 'hints' they've given us: The special credits in HD 2.5 ReMix The clips in the KH3 teaser at the end of the 2.5 trailer pre-E3 2014 The fact that Nomura himself said that leaving this game without an HD remake would be weird and that's 100% absolutely correct Before the HD remakes were a thing, there was this whole problem with the KH games being spread exclusively on multiple gaming systems. While I was able to get all the games, it was pretty unfair for those who didn't wish to buy certain of these systems or even those who couldn't afford them. The HD remakes were perfect for this situation! People are now able to get six KH games all on the PS3. Releasing an HD remake of DDD would make this scenario even better if they released it on the PS4 as a game, not as a movie. If this were to happen, then all one would need would be a PS3, IOS/Android and a PS4 to play all the games. Another thing to mention is the fact that the HD remakes were made to build hype towards KH3, to relive the past games and remember what all of these are leading up to. Dream Drop Distance is a game that specifically leads up to Kingdom Hearts 3 for Pete's sake! One can argue that it would be too soon to release an HD remake of DDD. And to that I say, BBS came out in 2010 and its HD remake came out four years later. DDD came out in 2012 and three years have already passed. One could argue that it was stated in an interview that Square is not planning to release an HD remake of DDD and to that I say: They weren't planning on making Birth by Sleep Final Mix either, but they released it. Heck, they were originally gonna end the series at Kingdom Hearts 2 and look how far they've gone. Without a doubt, they're making it. Whether one agrees or not, it's pretty obvious at this point that they're developing it. It wouldn't even take them as long as making 1.5 or 2.5. Why? Cause it's only ONE game while 1.5 and 2.5 each had two games and a movie. They can literally get another team instead of the Osaka team and just HD-ify the game and change the gameplay around a bit, that's all. I've waited long for Kingdom Hearts 3 and I think I can wait a little longer. 2 Exiblade7 and Power Jusho reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kibcha78 7 Posted July 19, 2015 It uses kinda the same engine as BBS so it won't be hard to port 1 Power Jusho reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kingdomhe 1,362 Posted July 19, 2015 Well, do you know how hard it is to map it? Nomura has multiple KH teams so he can have one team to work on the port. well the combat for the most part is fine, but its the touch pad stuff. you have the links and dual link but you can active them with two buttons so i think he could do something with that, but for portals, heck even the map, would be hard to do and then you have all of the spirits which focuses on touching and rubbing lol. i think nomura only has two teams and the osoka team is working on kh3 and they i think are the ones who did 3d and the last Re:HDs so i doubt they would use the KH team for a game they never even worked on. plus, nomura would have to be involved i some way and he all ready making X and 3 at the same time.

Vexen 73 Posted July 19, 2015 It's likely not going to happen. Considering that KH3D wasn't a big game worth of content anyway and the game is practically designed to work with the 3DS (for things such as Spirits and Reality Shifts). Plus, to pose this as a new game and sell it for anything less than $40 isn't quite practical. As for the story, KH3D is very important. 2 Master Eraqus and Exiblade7 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted July 20, 2015 Just have Kingdom Hearts 3D be remastered with the Kingdom Shader... it is the direct prelude to Kingdom Hearts 3. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Felixx 6,646 Posted July 20, 2015 Just have Kingdom Hearts 3D be remastered with the Kingdom Shader... it is the direct prelude to Kingdom Hearts 3. It would be really dumb not to make an HD remaster of Kingdom Hearts 3D, considering it is, like you said, the direct prelude to KH3 and its story is at least as important as the stories of Birth by Sleep and the numbered titles. Besides I really like this game, it's one of my favorites and I'd love to play it on a big screen, so I just hope they'll announce it later this year. 1 Exiblade7 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Power Jusho 1,783 Posted July 20, 2015 Just have Kingdom Hearts 3D be remastered with the Kingdom Shader... it is the direct prelude to Kingdom Hearts 3. That would be more difficult than just porting it because that means they have to redo every scene, have to remodel every character to fit the Kingdom Shader, and that would take even longer to make 1 Exiblade7 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted July 21, 2015 That would be more difficult than just porting it because that means they have to redo every scene, have to remodel every character to fit the Kingdom Shader, and that would take even longer to make From what we've seen, it seems like Kingdom Hearts 3 will be released before Kingdom Hearts 3D HD, therefore, just place Kingdom Hearts 3D into Kingdom Hearts 3 Final Mix.

The Transcendent Key 12,109 Posted July 26, 2015 While D23 is coming up in a few weeks, I get the feeling that if we were to get KH3D HD, we'd see a reveal of it at the Tokyo Game Show! It's likely there where we'll see it! Or Nomura could be a sly fox and sucker punch us with a surprise reveal of KH3D HD in D23, along with glorious KHIII news! Lol, I'd literally be surprised!
