Kingdom Hearts 3D English eShop demo coverage


DChiuch

Last night, a demo for Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] was added to the Nintendo 3DS eShop in North America, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. The North American version allows for 30 free plays, while the other versions allow for 15. We definitely recommend that you download and play the free demo, however, if you can't do so for some reason, we have prepared the following summary of the demo for you.

The demo is split into two sections, the "Tutorial" and the main section. On the menu screen, you have the choice of which you would like to play. "Tutorial" lets you play through the very part of the game on Destiny Islands (as Sora), where you are on a raft, shown the controls of the game, and have a short boss battle with Ursula, ending with some more tutorials in Traverse Town. You can see a recording of the tutorial below, thanks to Limen123 from KH13.

The main part of the demo takes part in Traverse Town, again, playing as Sora. When you arrive in Traverse Town, you are treated to a cutscene between Sora and Neku. After that, you can explore Traverse Town and fight Dream Eaters, with the demo ending after you beat the Dream Eater boss in the world. You can see a recording of the main part of the demo below, thanks to ELTheGeek.

Here is the cutscene from the demo, thanks to Blike from KH13:

After you complete the demo, you are treated to one of many random "thank you for playing" screens, featuring Meow Wow. Awesome! Make sure you play through the demo multiple times in order to see each one.

Lastly, since we've received so many pieces of news today, we wanted to make sure that you check out each of the articles below (all of which were posted in the last day).

- European version of Kingdom Hearts 3D to contain AR cards

Yeah, the one cutscene it shows you includes Neku talking to Sora.

When Neku said Sora wasn't a Player, I couldn't help but think of the other type of player. So I thought, "He is SO a Playa'. >8P"

Is it possible to declare a new favorite game just from playing the demo?

 

Either way, I use the Flowmotion like a spazz. Oh well. I have 38 days 21 hours to perfect the art.

Honestly, I played the demo, and to all those naysayers, who say:

"it's only traverse town"

Yeah! but its only the NEW parts of traverse town! (cept for the cutscene)

 

so I really liked the demo and it looks awesome,

I was afraid It would look cropped up.

But they made it in a way it's all really small, and doesn't look small or tiny at all!

and about the fourth district, it is huge! like,.. HUUUGEEE! They said the maps would be bigger and we really have something to look forward too now, cause I bet only treasure hunting will take hours.

and like Expected I suck at flow motion -.-

I was like "Y" and I went the opposite direction of where I wanted to go, hahaha

But at least I was good at sliding, bwahaha

 

 

Oh I got something puppin op me screen saying "cloud"

I was like,.. cloud is here? but I couldn't fight anything or something,

It was great, but as everyone else said it was short...although I am completely addicted to the free-flow action! And I hope that the dream-eaters will come in bigger masses later on in the game, because I felt a little under challenged with the amount in the demo. and the 3d is beautiful! This will definitely not just be a button mashing game. (I was watching the Hunchback of Notre Dame when I got the demo, I am so excited for that world!)

So yeah, what do you think of it?

 

And fun fact: the demo for Theatre Rhythm Final Fantasy is up on Aussie eShop too. Gonna download that next.

 

AGH!!! I'm so excited =D =D

It was seriously amazing. Free-flow was a lot easier than I expected and I actually used commands this time, whereas usually I just use attack and only have cures in my command deck. Annoyingly we only get 15 tries here in the UK but ah well, I'll just have to limit my playing to once every 2 days

Its actually on europe e-shop too if people were unsure, but sadly 15 tries for us. Guess its because we get it sooner? Who knows?

The game looks and plays awesome! Just a shame I couldnt try Circle pad pro on it.

And damn nintendo, announcing the 3DS XL. If they included the CPP with it, or even announced plans of a CPP XL or something, good, but now if I want to trade in my 3DS for that, it'll be without CPP...
