[UPDATE] New Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind screenshots added to the portal site; Double Form, slideshow function, data greeting and premium menu info added, translations available

Sick! So worth taking a few days off work when it releases.

OH MAN, I can't wait! I wasn't even expecting to get that juicy Double Form (Like how "Second Form" used to be Limit Form, I guess Final Form is "Double Form" now, lol), but now I can't wait to get my hand on both Keyblades! Also, I really hope that we get the option to make the Bosses and field enemies have higher defense or we can have a "deal half damage" option in the Black Code menu, I really want to make those final fights last longer without worrying about getting too OP, lol.

How is Sora being able to use "Double Form" when he can only use a Keyblade at once? Otherwise, maybe we can combine all Keyblades between them. Like maybe on one hand, you have a shield (Hercules) and another one, you have a gun (Winnie Pooh).

Rule of Cool. Roxas shouldn't be able to use two any more either

Save files: exist

Slideshow mode: It's free real estate

No seriously, this is gonna put a real dent into the size of the game, because we all found out how stupidly square decided to tie the photos to save files, on the other hand, everything looks delightful, so there is that.

Actually, Roxas learnt to use two Keyblades because he had his own Keyblade plus Xion's after absorbing her into himself. And when Roxas was reunited with Sora, he passed this ability to Sora himself.

Actually I respectfully correct you...Roxas was able to use two keyblades because of Ventus's heart as well as Sora's heart because during KH1 Ventus was still there.

Also Roxas looks the way he does now because Ventus was in Sora's heart before Sora used the keyblade of hearts to separate Kairi from him. There, it created his heartless, and being that Ventus was inside Sora's heart that's the reason why Roxas (Sora's nobody) looks the way he does now in the Kingdom hearts series.

Everything I said takes place before even Roxas existed, KH1 and Birth by Sleep play a big role on the topic. 

And being that some people hadn't beat all the games and followed the story extremely carefully (like I have because I love this series with all my heart and yes I own two of the DS games 358/2 days and Re:coded...) then you'll probably understand everything yourself.

But Xion said she was reuniting with Sora, not Roxas. Whoever said Xion merged with Roxas clearly didn't know what was going on in the game.

Yup not me. It was Ursalink.

Asking why Roxas can still Duel Wield is irrelevant. If he was only wielding one Keyblade, that would still beg the question of ownership: Roxas never had a Keyblade of his own. He was always using Sora's. The fact he can still summon Sora's Keyblade, and Ventus's, is a credit to his strong bond with the two. How long this lasts as he cements his own existence? It remains to be seen. 

Anyone know how these keyblades unlock i keep hearing we need the proofs but does anyone know for sure?

Check the cinematics of Days again, people! When Roxas tried to stop the Organization XIII's plans at the end of the game, he summoned his and Xion's Kingdom Keys. Which then became the Oathkeeper and the Oblivion. Roxas absorbed Xion into himself, and when Roxas reunited with Sora, both Xion and Roxas merged with Sora, completing him and allowing him to finally awake. roblem is, Xion was buried deeper on Sora because nobody remembered her. 

So, anyone know how to access the new photo mode yet?

This might be how it was presented on screen, but in actuality its the fact that Roxas now possesses his own heart as well as Ven's that allows him to dual wield. For Roxas, those keyblades take the form of oathkeeper and oblivion to signify xion and axel. It's all in the ultimanias.

If Roxas would had his own heart plus Ventus' from the beginning, he could have use Dual Keyblade from the beginning, but it wasn't until Xion disappeared that Roxas could do it. That's because he absorbed Xion into himself.

He didn't have his own heart from the beginning, it started to grow and then became fully formed. Had nothing to do with Xion's heart at all. I urge you to read the ultimania, canon is unfortunately canon no matter what the cutscenes say

You remember the secret ending of the first KH's Final Mix? You know, the scene where Riku and Roxas fight the Heartless. In that scene, Roxas threw the Oblivion Keyblade to Riku for him to use it. That was because of Xion's lingering influence. Xion was inside Roxas, and made him throw the Oblivion Keyblade to Riku to fight.

Right.... That still has nothing to do with why he can dual wield, and do you have a source for this?

It was in the Ultimania of a previous game, I don't know which one. Either KH-II or 358/2 Days. I can't remember.

Ah yep, I remember this now. It still doesn't have anything to do with why Roxas can dual wield, it's just showing how his actions were influenced

Let's try this: Sora gained the ability to use the Keyblade because Ventus' heart was inside of him. At first, Sora was actually using the power of Ventus, but as time passed, he gained his own power to use a Keyblade. (Ventus' heart influenced Sora's heart to be like his own). Roxas was able to use the Keyblade because he was Sora's Nobody, although his appearance was caused by Ventus' heart being present inside of him. In fact, technically, Roxas actually had Ventus' Keyblade power when he was "born", while Sora developed his own Keyblade's power. When Sora was trapped in "suspended animation" after KH:CoM, Xion was created with part of Sora and got Sora's power. When Xion disappeared, Roxas absorbed her into himself, which gave him a double Kingdom Key to use (his own, thanks to Ventus' heart, and Xion's, thanks to Sora's heart). But then, because Sora was the place from where both Roxas and Xion came, the double Kingdom Key transformed into the Oathkeeper and the Oblivion, representing Sora's most important characters (Riku and Kairi). Is it clear now?
