Kingdom Hearts 2
Kingdom Hearts 2 / II / KH2
Kingdom Hearts 2 (KH2) is the sequel to the hugely successful Squaresoft / Disney collaboration Kingdom Hearts which was released in 2002 on the PlayStation 2.
KH2 was released in 2005 in Japan, and 2006 in the rest of the world. KH2 was, like it’s predecessor, released on the PlayStation 2 console; however Square Co had by this time incorporated Enix into their portfolio, meaning that Kingdom Hearts II was a joint effort between Square-Enix and Disney.
Background Information
As in Kingdom Hearts, Sora is the main character and the story continues as he moves his way through the various worlds, including those derived from Disney stories. Sora proceeds through the KH2 storyline by travelling from Twilight Town, to Agrabah; from Hollow Bastion to ‘The World That Never Was’ wielding his Keyblade all the way.
On his journey, Sora meets, and is accompanied by a plethora of different characters including Disney’s Goofy and Donald, Final Fantasies Cloud and Aerith, and original cast members such as Riku and Kairi.
Storyline
(Warning: this article contains major spoilers!)
The story begins with Sora, Donald and Goofy waking up from a year-long sleep which was induced to recover their forgotten memories lost in their prior adventure. While Sora and friends slept, Sora’s “Nobody”, Roxas, has been placed in an almost parallel universe created by DiZ (also known as Ansem the Wise), in order to have Roxas merge with Sora after he awakens. This was done so that DiZ could get revenge on Organization XIII.
After waking up, Sora, Donald and Goofy are sent off by King Mickey and Yen Sid to find Riku, and to prevent Organization XIII from proceeding with their plans to abuse their control of the Nobodies. As well as this, the wicked dark fairy Maleficent is resurrected, and with the help of Pete endeavors to gain supreme power.
While Sora and friends are traversing their way throughout the kingdom, Kairi was kidnapped by Organization XIII. At this point in the story King Mickey makes Sora aware of the relation between Ansem, Xehanort and Xemnas. It is also revealed that plan of Organization XIII is to obtain the power of Kingdom Hearts.
As Sora, Donald and Goofy travel to Organization XIII’s headquarters, in the World That Never Was, they meet up with Kairi and Riku once more, who reveal the true relationship between Sora and Roxas.
King Mickey proceeds to meet with DiZ, who admits that he is Ansem the Wise, but while attempting to reduce the power of Kingdom Hearts by using a machine, the machine blows up and kills Ansem the Wise.
The game then ends with a mighty battle with shape-shifting Xemnas, whose defeat means that Sora, Kairi, Riku and company are able to return home to Destiny Islands.
And as the game ends, we see Sora, Riku and Kairi reading a letter from King Mickey. And so onto Kingdom Hearts III?

Keith510 is the epitome of ‘n00b’. And is most likely in middle school.
Anyhow…
Nomura recently stated that after Versus XIII is completed, he’s wanting to step down from the FF series and focus on KH. Like Shakespeare said above, this is a GOOD thing. Versus XIII will be VERY similar to KH in that the battle system is going to mimic KH (meaning ‘not turn-based’), Yoko Shimomura will be composing the OST, and even the main character (who I think was named ‘Storm’) looks a lot like Nomura’s usual art-style. In the trailer, if you pause it right at the part where he’s about to descend the steps, you’ll notice that his clothing resembles an Organization XIII outfit and that, even down to the shoulders, you can see some designs of “Nomura’s pointed design.”
Think of Versus XIII as a KH3 demo. Also, if ‘Storm’ turns out to be really cool, he may have an appearance in KH3 an an ally. Now THAT would rock.

Guys. Listen up. Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix+ =/= Kingdom Hearts 3.
For right now, the KH team is working hard on Final Fantasy Versus XIII. This is a GOOD thing. They’ll get a chance to work with the new engines and the capabilities of the PS3 before taking a crack at the new series.
For an idea of what ‘KH3′ might look and feel like, go take a look at some of the early screen shots for FF Versus XIII. (According to Wiki, Yoko Shimamura is doing the music for FF Versus XIII, too.) So, some possibilities for what ‘KH3′ might have, based on what FFXIII has, are:
-Totally awesome graphics (rendered on the Unreal 3 engine, designed specifically for next gen systems; it’s an enormous leap from the Unreal 2 engine. The White Engine is still being used on FFXIII, and probably on FF Versus XIII, but Squeenix said they would be using Unreal 3 on their future projects.)
-Something involving the Sixaxis motion-sensing on PS3 controllers (Though since KH has been and pretty much always will be a button mashing game, this will likely be some sort of optional thing; possibly an intuitive camera control?)
-A wicked long story (FFXIII was originally slated for the PS2, but one PS2 disc wouldn’t be enough to hold it. The capabilities of Blu-Ray means that Nomura and his writers can go nucking futs with the story.)
In any case, the new series will be exciting!
