New information from Ruliweb interview with Tetsuya Nomura: Maps from previous numbered Kingdom Hearts games will NOT appear in Kingdom Hearts III

Kinda glad but also disappointed. I'm glad they're making it completely new, but some old maps would have been nice. Such as Radiant Garden or Traverse Town at least.

Maybe he only means Disney related worlds. If not, this is good news for Radiant Garden, as it may show up nearly fully repaired (and maybe fully repaired at later visits).

Did we actually see any map from KH1 that made it into KH2? I don't remember any except the Olympus Coliseum one. Not even Atlantica was the same.

I would love to see traverse town returning in KH3. I think it will be cool.

For anyone saying that Halloween Town is not coming back in KH3, look at this: These are the other doors in Halloween Town. They can show us these worlds in KH3.

I don't think the fans would care too much to visit Thanksgiving Town or St. Patrick's Town.

I would still find it hard to believe that we would go to Olympus Coliseum without actually going into the Coliseum. But there is always the chance that they could change the map of the Entrance, Lobby/Vestibule, and Arena. MGS4 did it with Shadow Moses, so I don't see why certain maps that are kind of important, such as the Coliseum itself, couldn't just be majorly edited to fit this standard. Twilight Town clearly still has it's Market Street: Tram Commons area, although they may just be referring to DIsney worlds when it comes to this change. But I'm pretty certain we'll see at least some familiar rooms, but that they won't make up the majority of each world map. And hey, I'd love to see the same old rooms get redesigned and revamped from the ground up if that's what it would take to get them in there. It appeals to the nostalgia value while still adding in new secrets and surprises that you never would have expected (again, ala Shadow Moses MGS4).

Who says the coliseum is no longer there?

Just gimmie Treasure Planet!!! pwetty pweese

To be honest, Pride Lands still has a change. The only location we need from Lion King 1 is pride rock, the rest is all different in Lion King 2. And let's not forget the version we got from savanna/pride rock in KH2 was the one from Scar's reign. #PrideLandsHype

Please let this mean Aladdin and the King of Thieves is the Agrabah map. Please.

Please let this mean Aladdin and the King of Thieves is the Agrabah map. Please.

Yes, please!. I disliked Agrabah in KH1 but if they could expand on what they did in KHII then by all means gimme more Agrabah. Plus, who doesn't want more Genie?

My thoughts lie here.

I didn't realise this thread was made so I made a new one about this, oops.

Anyways, just as I stated in the video, take everything with a grain of salt. We can still see the same area, but it'll look different. For example if we see the Colliseum in KH3 it will look different to how it did in KH1, thus they aren't just making the same areas with new graphics but instead bringing new looks to old areas so even the older worlds will feel fresh. How satisfying. This doesn't rule out any original worlds just Disney ones.

Then it wouldn't be Halloween Town lol

I'd like to see Pride Lands, Port Royal, Radiant Garden, Twilight Town, Traverse Town, Olympus Coliseum, Never Land, Halloween Town, Agrabah, Beast's Castle, Atlantica, City Des La Cloches, The Grid, The Scrapped Jungle Book World, The Land of Departure, & the Keyblade Graveyard.

I hope that some places will stay like they were, i mean it is really cool to visit new places, but i also want to see places that are familiar^^
