New Main Story Content, Castle of Dreams world, and multiplayer mode coming to international version of Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ in early 2017

New main content story, and multiplayer mode are what I'm most excited for. Have a lot of work to do before the former is relevant to me though as I'm perpetually stuck in the 250's with story and no where near ready to attempt to face a Proud Mode challenge yet. Eventually though! It will be great to be able to play Multiplayer with my partner too, who I have dragged into the KH fandom, no regrets~

We will have to wait untill January for new story updates then?

The Proud Mode is violently unfair and stupid.

I'm thinking, we might be able to see Skuld before this year ends. And some other things I didn't experience in X[chi]. 

And for next year, it'll get to the more heavy stuff, thus X[chi]'s story will end. And Season 2 will begin.

And our one year anniversary, it probably going to be big!

No, that's not what it's saying. We'll at the very least get up to the point Skuld is introduced before then, but my guess is we'll get further than that because it implies Castle of Dreams is coming then.

No, we won't meet Skuld before Jan., the JP ver. has filler mission after we complete Beast Castle and we won't be starting Season 2 anytime soon. I feel bad for the people that didn't keep up with KH X if Back Cover talks about things that aren't in Unchained yet.

So we are going to meet Skuld next year? These filler missions are might be the ones that I have never done before.

Should be Jan.

i agree with kingdomhe. the notice says new main story content will be delivered in jan 2017. quest 450 is the latest in Global UX right? since skuld is introduced at quest 536 and starting quest 526 quest batch was reduced to 15 quests/update which means 75 quests total until december. 
this should be interesting, since less quest batch usually means more event. and since proud mode is coming chance they will release events with Mickey & broom as reward.

Sweet! We will get to meet Skuld after all! Hopefully we'll still get some story updates before the year is over, filler or not. I'm actually kind of hoping for the Realm of Darkness events, that'd make a good way to kill time. Hopefully we don't have to complete too many proud mode missions to unlock Sleeping Lion. I really hope they still give us plenty of content over these next few months before Jan 2017. I also hope that the pacing of the story's events doesn't lead to confusion for anyone who wasn't keeping up with X once Back Cover is released, because if Unchained doesn't get around to recreating those events then there's got to be some way that they can give everybody the context necessary to understand the story from all perspectives.

So basically, they announce everything but Mickey & Brooms. How long is SENA going to tease the international audience with that carrot?

Now the question is: Will Skuld get a name change?

They updated the notice saying that Proud Mode comes in January. I guess that's enough time for F2P/C2P players to get enough guilt? lol who am I kidding?

Proud Mode is nearly impossible for people with terrible RNG. Our party members that still play INT actively don't even have a chance. Even for the very few who (also don't play anymore) did get a premium medal can't even guilt it. I don't know how they expect normal players to participate in Proud Mode.

IIRC sleeping lion can be acquired within first ten quests. i don't remember which. the problem isn't getting it, but upgrading it. if JP has requirement "to clear all enemies within 1 turn" to get the electrum (material to upgrade), i won't be surprised if Global requirement would be "clear all enemies without attacking them".

since M&B isn't confirmed yet, let's put aside guilting medal for now. it's how many premium and wide range of medals you got for proud quest. for FTP with limited jewel their number of draw is limited while there's several nasty requirement for proud like "single target medal only" or "min.11 attack medal only". this require you to have wide varieties of medals which would be problem for FTP. interesting to see what SE NA will do before they released proud mode.

So that's where Ephemera's a went

Thanks for this news update, Sora'spromise!

When I logged into the game, I noticed this information log, and I read through it, and I'm excited for all the new additions we're going to have for the game next year! Co-op is something I know will be quite a hit for the game when the feature is available!  Proud Mode in this game looks like it'll be intimidating! I already thought we were having a tough challenge as is!  But if this isn't even the hardest the game is, then Proud Mode will kill us!

Hmm, but what concerns me is about the story updates!  It shows a screenshot with Skuld, so that means we'll have to wait until next year to meet her, huh?  But if that's the case, then what'll we be doing for the remaining four months?  What story missions will we have while we wait to meet Skuld?  And when will Season 2 of Unchained begin for us?

I need some clarification on the story missions!  Will we be getting close to 600 missions by year's end?
