Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Latest trailer begins with Aqua, of the 3 main characters, giving goodluck charms made up of seashells to Ven and Terra. Continuing, a new character that looks like a samurai appears. Terra and Aqua are shown in a scene explaining the “Master Qualification Exam”, will the two of them take the test to become masters? Nearby Master Xehanort is there as a so called “guest”. In the scene Master Xehanort explains a lesson to Terra, at this point in time Master Xehanort is respected by everyone. Master Xehanort has been revealed publically before, but gathering from this image, there seems to be a sense of madness exerted from him… Many previously revealed scenes are shown consecutively, and then a scene that looks like a board game in every aspect is shown. Cinderella rolls some dice and the game advances exactly like a board game. In the past, this game’s director Tetsuya Nomura mentioned “A growth system that’s quite different from other systems, maybe you could call it a mini game…?” Could this be what he was talking about!? Moreover, Vexen in a white robe, as well as the two soldier like figures of Xaldin and Lexaeus are there as one might think their human forms appeared before they were in Organization XIII. Also, in the same booth guests could try out the multiplayer mode, as well as observe plenty of new worlds like Peter Pan and Cinderella. The 3 person multiplayer scenes were publically revealed. It happens in Peter Pan’s world, though the scenes seem to be different than what has appeared in the past titles. Additionally, the masked Keyblade user who appeared with Master Xehanort is given a voice for the first time. Ven is shown in his mysterious armor like what the “Lingering Sentiment” wore in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, he rides the Keyblade with Stitch, flying into space. Anyways, there were many astonishing scenes shown in rapid succession. The release date announced at the end is for January 2010 in Japan. The mysterious person that appears wearing a body suit like that of motorcycle rider. Though their voice was masculine… Kingdom Hearts Mobile & Coded In Kingdom Hearts Mobile, images of the new mini game “Rhythm Parade” which has begun distribution recently appeared. It was a cute image of FF series characters moving alongside with the avatar characters. Kingdom Hearts coded is continuously being publically featured, this time mostly with a focus on Episode 3 and Episode 4 which are distributing now. A boss stage in side scroll style was shown, as well as scenes featuring command battle methods. The high spec images were something you wouldn’t expect from a mobile video game. Also, at the end a man in a black hood appears suddenly in the room of the King (Mickey) and his company. The hood is lifted… And the face that is shown looks like that of Riku from the original Kingdom Hearts! However, the man in the hood says “I am not Riku!” The ending images just call on mystery upon mystery and leave you anxious for more. |
