it's actually because of KH 0.2 BBS A Fragmentary Passage. It is running on the engine that kh3 is running on. 

Oh nvm I read that it was cinematic. So yeh it is cause of BBS 0.2.

Oh God, I can't even begin to express how much I frickin fanboyed when I saw the article for 2.8 and its trailer!  My mind went numb, I went crazy, and I screamed like a banshee!  Glorious heavens, this is it!!!  The final step on the journey to Kingdom Hearts III!!!  THE FINAL CHAPTER PROLOGUE IS COMING!!!  Good lord, this has me so frickin hyped!  KH3D IS GETTING A REMASTER, CHI IS GETTING CINEMATICS, AND BIRTH BY SLEEP VOLUME 2 IS OFFICIALLY A THING!!!

 

AND AQUA, FASDJFALKSDJFALSDFJ, SHE LOOKS FRACKIN GORGEOUS!!!!

 

Lol, the funny thing is, I was waiting for Kingdom Hearts III to get a PS4...looks like I'll be needing the PS4 a bit earlier than expected! X3

I am not gonna lie. At first I was kinda mad about 2.8 because i literally bought a 2ds and dream drop distance a month ago (my parents were/are infuriated!). But then the madness slowly withered away (about 5-10 mins later i am jumping up and down because of the new kingdom hearts game included) and i became HYPED!!!!!!!!
