Critical Mode is on its way to Kingdom Hearts III

Well I guess I'd best start training.

I hope this is the start of an improvement.

Last thing I checked 358/2 Days doesn't have Critical Mode either. Anyway, it sounds like Critical Mode is gonna to make the boss fights and minor enemies more challenging. Hmm I definitely trying this once and see how it is.

Good thing i havent invested that much time in my first save file i havent even made ultima.

This is promising. Let's hope we get a KH2FM-style critical mode. 

He's saying all the right things, so I can't wait to check it out!

It's going to "change the way you play the game", huh? Maybe I'll actually give Critical Mode a try this time. 

I'm scared. I'm not ready. Lol 

It sounds like they might be changing up attack patterns. Could be a neat addition.

How much ya wanna bet it's gonna still be easy?

Thank you for the correction! I completely spaced that Days didn't have it! I've gone ahead and fixed that.

Oh no problem!

I've never done a Critical Mode run, but I will definitely try one when this releases.

It's way more likely to be a BS kind of difficulty like the Babynort fight in BBS.

I'm probably going to have to grind a lot ???

Maybe elemental enemies will mostly (or ONLY) be damaged by their elemental weaknesses. That "armor" state might appear more often. Duude, how about enemies coordinate attacks to juggle the heck out of you? I;m reeeally looking forward to Critical mode now. ?

Destroy me. Im ready

Thanks for informing us about this, Raxaimus!

Gahhh, I'm so ready for Critical Mode! I've been craving the challenge ever since I finished the game, and hopefully, this'll ratchet up the battles considerably, especially all the final ones!

To be fair, Critical was never part of the original games. It was always exclusive to Final Mix.

It was part of vanilla BBS. At least for the international version. It was also in Re:coded and 3D.

Critical Mode sounds kinda scary. The only Critical Mode I've ever done was BBS on the PSP and it was devastatingly hard. However I think I want to wait for the DLC stuff before I play another round of KH3. The new stuff they add will entice me to really want to play again so I think I'll wait.
