KH3 Info. Major Spoilers

[EaglesFan887 11]

Quote from http://www.sleepygamers.com/kingdom-hearts-3-speculation/

 

Tetsuya Nomura has made it clear that he has not even began development of Kingdom Hearts 3. However, ideas are being laid on the table, and Square Enix will be sure to tease us with information maybe in the next Tokyo Game Show, so let the speculation begin. Kingdom Hearts 3 is the term that many fans of the series declare will be the next major console release. A lot of smaller releases have been made on the PSP and DS consoles, but a lot of us are disappointed in that because we want to play this beloved video game on a console with power. It seems that Square Enix is just trying to expand its market, and raise the audience of the game before actually coming out with what we call the true release, that will most likely be highly anticipated and requested by many video gamers all over.But a lot of details are scarce. Knowing that they have been releasing the Kingdom Hearts series on a multitude of consoles, will the game still be loyal to the Sony and the PlayStation 3, or will it be a multiplatform game? What sort of features will the game hone and how will the story progress as of now? Well, to understand the storyline of this game, you will need to play pretty much every game in the series. This game is an amalgam of Final Fantasy and Disney characters in one. The story line is an enjoyable one, to say the least, and it manages to capture your attention and tug on your heart as you make your way through this epic. There are five games worth playing in this series so far, to my count. That would be Kingdom Hearts 1, 2, birth by sleep, chain of memories, and 358/2 days, not necessarily in the order. The story line of all of these video games intertwine into one another, so just hopping into a random game in this series may leave you lost and constantly questioning why something has come to be. Sora, Donald and Goofy Many are speculating that the new console game will not even involve the original cast of characters, being Sora, Riku, Kairi, Goofy, Donald and Mickey. As seen in the new games that have been released in the series, a new set of characters have been introduced, during the times of the Keyblade War. So who knows who you may play as this time around, maybe the two casts of characters will meet up in the game. The whole set up of the story leaves little room for speculation, because a jump in the time line is very possible. So in terms of story, this will be a waiting game. However, for in game mechanics, you can be sure that there is a large area for speculation available. The drive system was an interesting and welcome addition into the franchise, but will this be kept in the next major installment to come? It has to fit into the context of the game, so I am not that sure if they will keep the exact same drive system. I personally speculate that they will some how incorporate the drive system into KH3, but will describe and present it in a different manner. This certainly is not a bad thing, since the drive system was an interesting thing, especially when you would turn into dark Sora. As for the difficulty of the game, that will and must get an upgrade. A major complaint of Kingdom Hearts 2 is that it became nothing more than a button masher. You could close your eyes and spam the attack button and come out unscathed in some parts of the game, which is pretty disappointing. If they raise the difficulty just a bit, they will most likely please a large portion of the fan base while pleasing the reviewers and critiques. Kingdom Hearts 2 The graphics will be greatly enhanced no doubt. The last major Kingdom Hearts game made its appearance on the PlayStation 2, last generation. With all the power that the PlayStation 3 has to offer now, Square Enix and Tetsuya Nomura will most certainly make great use of the power that this console offers. I am actually sure that a lot of the features that this game may have will be done simply because the console has the power to, which is a great thing. Also, if this becomes a PS3 exclusive, then the large amount of space offered by the Blu-Ray disc would be a great thing to take advantage of, and you would be given a large story line experience. There is some speculation about multiplayer capabilities being involved within Kingdom Hearts 3. To be honest, I am not sure how feasible this speculation is. For the simple fact that every game in the Kingdom Hearts franchise has stayed a single player campaign game to date, so while it is open to change, I can not really see it happening. There is not much room for a multiplayer mode in a KH game, simply because it is not a shooting game or war game where you can easily pose yourself against an enemy team. Some think that Square Enix may throw in a Heartless vs. Keyblade master (deathmatch) mode, or a survival mode, to allow for some multiplayer abilities. The deathmatch mode does sound a bit plausible, all you would have to do is offer multiple keyblade masters for the player to choose, and give a variety of heartless to choose for the others to choose. The only problem with this is that the fighting system in Kingdom Hearts 2, most likely to be adapted to Kingdom Hearts 3, does not really suit a multiplayer fighting game. So while it is possible that the inclusion of multiplayer will be there, it is highly doubtful. DLC is something that I, and I am sure many others, will look forward to with this game. Square Enix will most likely have great incentive towards providing downloadable content for this game, for the sheer popularity and positive reception of this upcoming game. So you may be able to look forward to add on chapters of the story line or even custom character skins and more.

^ A few things i would change. Expert should be BELOW crit., cus crit. sounds harder then expert.

No panels, i think panels ruined 358/2 days, jsut deck commands, they looks alot more fun, and they have possiables for new abilatys, so more possiablelys then Bbs

no more FF, dont forget, kingdom hearts is its own game, it should be able to make its own people >: l

Focus and D-link is a YESS.

But i dont know how it would look if there was also a Drive bar.

[hatok 6,413]

Expert is KH1's Proud Mode.

[JTD95 1,107]

no more FF, dont forget, kingdom hearts is its own game, it should be able to make its own people >: l

Then no more Disney characters either, uh? Since they should be able to make their own characters...

[Master Keeper 687]

I want kairi as playable character

More final fantasy characters (from XIII)

Final fantasy world (Cocoon , Gran Pulse or Midgar)

Cloud ,Leon.Tifa,Yuffie,Hercules,minnie mouse and mickey as party members

Showing (lightning,snow,hope,sazh) the story line would be after killing Orpan

Agrabah (Aladdin 3) , Atlantica (the little mermaid 2) , neverland (peterpan 2) and Hawai(lilo and stitch)

Vanitas return

Xion's return

Playing as many characters as possible

[xxTerra 2]

Or maybe it will be better. I dont no.

But off topic, and someone tell me what FF13 verus is?

hmmm... good point.

[13kingdomkey13 3]

I just wanna see Sora and Roxas as tag team

[Blade of light and darkness 1]

i just want it on all different systems not just the ps3 cause that would just suck cause then all kh fans will go out and buy a ps3 just for that game

[Queen Tery 4,591]

I have no idea what it is. it is a ps3 exclusive that has been under development for yrs. with scarcely any info. revealed yet. it is based on similar mythology as ff 13 but the story, characters, and timeline have nothing to do with ff 13. it will much darker than most other ff games and has maybe a couple trailers that are all just about the same. u can find them on youtube. while noone has seen the battle system it is supposed to be similar to kh. any other questions just ask sorry bout the poor setup of this reply i dont no how to change it

[Axtwyt 500]

I'd like to pick my own party, up to four members, any main character, and be able to play alone or with friends without wireless connections.

 

Also, make sora a little more final fantasy, less disney, and have toy story as a world

[roxaskeybladeart55 72]

it has to have vanitas return and have an epic cloud vs vanitas sstyle cutscene for a ven verses vanitas fight, and everything you just said

[Tsunamo 62]

The title's a bit misleading, don't you think? It doesn't really spoil anything, nor give out KHIII info, just speculation on peoples parts put into an article.

 

Anyway, what i'd like to see in Kingdom Hearts III is multiplayer. Days did it, Birth By Sleep did it, so I don't see why III can't fit in multiplayer separate to the main game/story.

 

I wouldn't mind DLC, but i'd rather it be nothing that is story related, just little things that you wont be missing out on if you don't buy them.

 

Everything else I think Nomura will have covered perfectly when he finally makes Kingdom Hearts III.

[EaglesFan887 11]

Well there were some spoiles. Not many. I agree I confused the Spoiles Part. And there was some info regarding the "future" of KH3, just people started saying what they wanted to see. So the title wasn't too misleading.

Yeah, my mistake. Guess it's just me, everytime I see the word KHIII in a thread title/news article somewhere I always think it's gonna be more info released on when development will start for the game.

[Mog 97]

Sora Vs Vanitas has to be in this game.I'll have a job by the time KH3 comes out,so I'll have fun playing this in college.

[Sarrin 100]

i just wish i could afford new systems

[khforever999 3]

its pretty annoying how everyone wants these new disney movies to be in kingdom hearts but the simple fact is that kingdom hearts doesnt have rights to characters from pixar movies with the exeption of chicken little im still wandering

[KingOFHearts 19]

i want

 

-Ven going back to his body (and sora having his own heart)

-More characters

-More worlds

-A demo in the ps3

-Online gaming like you can customize your own team like sora riku kairi vs namine roxas and axel + online tournaments + keyblade wars against all the people with keyblades

-multiplayer story mode

-new keyblades

-Different storylines like BBS

-DLC pack for new characters, storylines, and keyblades

-more limits

-BBS reunion

-a storyline where sora loses the power of how to use the keyblade ()

-another (funny) storyline xion returns and looks like sora and when they meet they look like twins

-Kingdom Keys true purpose revealed.(Mog's idea )

-Ansem RETURNS (DUN dun dunnnnn)

-A new sora nobody and heartless

-Riku, mickey, kairi, and organization (what ever number) playable characters (for multiplayer if there is)

-More magic

-New forms for sora, riku, roxas, and mickey

-Kh special editon or keyblade special edition case

[rho 9]

I seriously don't expect KH3 to be released anywhere until at least 2014. Hell, it might not be revealed until then.

[KHnamine734 0]

what i'd like to see in KH3 is similar to what other people said;

 

-vanitas to return

-new worlds such as hunchback of notre dame, emporer's new groove, treasure planet, toy story, atlantis, lilo and stich and so on

-d-link

-appearences from other SE franchises such as Soul Eater, FMA, etc.

-ffXIII cameos

-new opening song from utada

-xion and namine reappearences

-kairi to come along

-axel to come back (in some way or form)

-returning worlds such as agrabah, neverland, land of the dragons, maayeebbe wonderland

-more info on keyblade war AND origin of the keyblade

-more info on the orginization's somebodies

-ventus to come back

-saving aqua from the realm of darkness

-DLC

- *looks around* maybe go multiplat-*shot by ps3 fanboys*

-new forms

-riku as a playable character

-roxas to come back

-new magic

-getting around worlds by the keyblade... armor... things? i forget what they're called

-MX returns (no suprise there, actually )

-multiplayer

 

this is at least what i would like to see. i think its safe to say that some of theings aren't going to be in the game (like the new song, FMA SE appearences, axel), but a girl can dream, can't she?

At the current rate of things KH3 isn't even going to come out for the PS3. Nintendo is making the first move into the next generation of consoles and that is with the recently announced 3D Wii and almost complete 3DS. This will force both Microsoft and Sony to upgrade their consoles. And because KH3 hasn't even begun production (as the little leak in Square Enix that we all thought was KH3 was really the KH for the 3D) I estimate that it's going to start production in at least 2015. By this time Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo would have released their new lines of consoles.

Truth. I doubt KH3 will be out before the next generation of consoles. It'll be out for the Wii 2 at this rate

[spenskh89 66]

How great would it be to have a wii remote or move feel on a kh game. oh the possibilities. endless...but i'm sure that this will be on a newly developed system.
