New Kingdom Hearts Games Revealed
Hi guys, this info just came here from the forums, and so, without explaining, here it is:
Quite a lot of new information was brought up; first, this is the new artwork:

Second, Square-Enix released trailers of the new games. But these trailers were shown privately, so all we have are descriptions. Here they are along with the new logos.

When the video begins, we are introduced with a series of images, followed by the words “Kingdom Hearts: New Concepts and Game Titles.” Right after this, the ending to Kingdom Hearts 2 plays, followed by the phrases “The secret ending has been dealt with, and the worlds extend once again” and “flow”.
The screen fades back in to Jiminy Cricket and the phrase “Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories”. He is peering into his journal, noticing a phrase that he cannot remember writing. It reads “You need to return, to heal the wounds”. This phrase seems to alert Jiminy in some way, as he runs off to report the finding to King Mickey. The King is startled by the discovery, but only replies with “Only he is the one who can solve it.”
We fade in and out to Sora standing on the beach at Destiny Islands. He is wearing his Kingdom Hearts 1 style clothing, but he is only shown as computer data being transmitted.
When the image of Sora disappears, a battle scene commences. As Sora is moving blocks around to finish a puzzle game, heartless are attacking from all angles. The gameplay mechanics seem very odd. After the puzzle is finished, a command called “Debugging” appears on the screen. After being activated, Sora moves extremely quickly and then vanishes.
The last scene includes Sora and Mickey in Traverse Town. Mickey says to no one in particular “I was here on that day.” and “Let’s speak truly.”. We are then presented with the name of the game: Kingdom Hearts: Coded. It has been announced to be a mobile phone game.

We are introduced with the scene where Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories had came to an end, and are then confronted with the phrase “The other side attached to Sora still sleeps”, along with “The mind comes back whenever they touch.”
The video then focuses upon Roxas and Axel, sitting atop the clock tower in Twilight Town. This seems to be the same scene from Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix+. Soon after, the video shows Roxas being invited into Organization XIII. He is being greeted by all, and introduces himself, and they do the same to him. Then the scene fades into Roxas actually joining the Organization.
Following this is a short clip of Mickey talking about Axel, and Saix near Roxas. Roxas is shown pulling out both of his keyblades, and it moves into gameplay. The gameplay confirms definitively that you may play with Roxas, Axel, Saix and Xigbar.
Xemnas then mentions something very interesting. He explains that a 14th member has joined their Organization, and that this member is female. This scene is quickly followed by the title of the game: “Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days” and a whispering Roxas saying “I will disappear from this world in 151 days”
This game is for the beloved Nintendo DS.

Scenes of the ending of Kingdom Hearts 1 flash by on the screen, and two phrases are seen clearly onscreen. One reads “Deep Past” and the other “Shut-Eyes gives birth to the concealed fate.”
We are then confronted by a young boy who looks like Roxas conversing with another young boy with black hair. Their surroundings seem to resemble Hallow Bastion (Radiant Garden). The name “Ven” is thrown outward, referring to the boy who looks like Roxas.
The scene change various times before stopping at an image of the Old Man from the Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix+ Secret Ending. He is called “Master Xehanort” by Terra. Soon after, Terra summons his keyblade and the screen changes.
Various worlds are shown, and one of which is familiar to us all. “Olympus Coliseum” is making another comeback, followed by a brand new world, that of which resembles Sleeping Beauty.
The video then changes back to Terra battling against a dark figure, whom you can tell is male. This is the same man from the Secret Ending of Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix+ that the Old Man creates. Terra is able to forcably get the man’s helmet off, but his face is concealed.
King Mickey is shown summoning his keyblade, and then the scene changes very quickly to Terra on a beach. He seems to be watching two boys play in the ocean. After he rests his weapon into the ground, the two boys he was watching are clearer and they look like Sora and Riku. Soon after, Terra says “Please don’t depend on me, just erase me… friend.” The phrase “Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep” arises, and it is revealed this game is for the PSP.
Note: It has been rumored the DS game is being co-developed by Hand (Chocobo Tales) and the PSP game is being developed by the Crisis Core team. This is not a confirmation, just speculation.

This is the greatest day of my life!!!
I don’t see why they went with the Mobile platform for coded, though. Didn’t the original KH Mobile kind of fail. I just hope Nomura isn’t using this one to tell the story of what King Mickey has done during the first games, like he had hinted in his interviews.

I can’t believe it! I’ll finally play my favourite game in my Nintendo DS! This looks like a dream! And the best for me is that I’ll play with Axel, he’s so cool! I’m really eager to know what will happen to Roxas! I really can’t wait for this game!
on 21 Sep 2007 at 2:21 pm 3. jen
As happy and excited i am about the birth by sleep i am still wanting more. The truth is KH3 is what many of us are waiting for and i know for me and many others BBS And 358/2 in some ways is disapointing as the only reason i would buy a ds or a psp are for these games… Im excited but still exremely hopfull that that more on the futur of KHseries will be announced

on 21 Sep 2007 at 4:04 pm 10. shadow
Hey in the picture above Vns clothes look like Roxas clothes Aquas clothes look similar to kairis and Terras look similar to Rikus…
on 21 Sep 2007 at 4:10 pm 11. shadow
I bet the new member is Aqua!!
That would be cool to play as Xemnas or someone though but oh well.
on 21 Sep 2007 at 4:16 pm 12. shadow
When will they come out!!!!!!!
on 21 Sep 2007 at 4:27 pm 13. Claws
yeah i bet the 14th member is aqua cause xemnas calls her old friend on kh 2 fm+ so she probly betrays organization xiii
on 21 Sep 2007 at 4:32 pm 14. Airashii
This is not fair! I don’t have either the DS or PSP!! Now, I have to buy it!! They should have released it to the PS3
on 21 Sep 2007 at 4:45 pm 15. Airashii
QUESTION: Are they thinking to release KH2:Final Mix to the states?
on 21 Sep 2007 at 5:12 pm 16. ash
yay im really happy in all but umm what happened to the ps2/ps3? i have to say it was a let down …. for now anyways
on 21 Sep 2007 at 5:21 pm 17. Rai
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! this is going to cost me a lot of money! i dont have a psp or a DS, and my phne is crappy and i doubt it can take a KH game! :’(
on 21 Sep 2007 at 5:31 pm 18. waitin4KH3
the 14th member of the organization that gets mentioned is most likely a reference to Namine.
As far as everyone waiting for the next ps2/ps3 game, Nomura already stated that he wanted to branch into one or multiple handhelds. This should have been expected by everyone.
That’s why I went out and bought a psp when he said that in an interview.
on 21 Sep 2007 at 6:00 pm 19. Ben Tutin
WOWOWOWOW OMG this is the best of my gaming life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im not really bothered about kingdom hearts coded but Kingdom hearts 358/2 days im gfonna get im even gonna get a ds just for that and .. Kingdom hearts birth by sleep should be the best one !!!!!! any relase dates yet?
on 21 Sep 2007 at 6:09 pm 20. D0ffy
Seriously though what were they thinking making another KH game on a cell phone? Dear god what a let down.
Birth By Sleep sounds cool though, but I don’t want all these handheld games. Give us KH3 god dammit, we want the answers, not all these sidekicks!!
on 21 Sep 2007 at 7:28 pm 21. Einat
I totally agree with bamf. BBS and 358/2 sound extremely cool and seem to hold a good part of the plotline. But there is no way in hell I’m buying all those new consoles just for a game.
This game industry is taking advantage of the goodwill of me and millions of fans out there. If this is their way to deal with burnt CDs then I disagree, because all of my game CDs are original, and perhaps if those industries invested a little in education as they do in publicity then people would be a little more moral and would actually buy original CDs.
As much as I love the game, I don’t think I’ll be able to catch up with it like this. With all do respect to Nomura, a good artist/producer wishes his work to be known and appreciated by as many as possible. It is very conceited to throw around the plotlines around different consoles, planning that fans would buy these consoles just for the game. And you know what? They will. Because many fans just don’t know how to stand up for their rights and object the rip-off even when it’s oh so obvious.
It just makes me lose a good deal of my respect to Nomura.
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:05 pm 22. KHFan07
WAHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! yay i got a ds 2 weeks ago and now ive found out ” Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep” is goin to come on to ds! this is the best day in my gaming life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:07 pm 23. damian
i was just wondering…are all of these games related? cuz that would suck, i only have a psp and i dont want to buy a ds..poor…
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:09 pm 24. KHFan07
I mean 358/2 days
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:15 pm 25. XehanortNobody
My theory on the fourth organization XII member is that it is the nobody of riku
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:16 pm 26. Ben Tutin
well yes they are all related in some way basicly all of these games are related to the first one on the PS2
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:23 pm 27. RegjoX
I have to admit I’m kinda disappointed… No platform games announced AT ALL! I mean , this is great news for psp and ds owners , but playstation brought this game to the dance , it wouldn’t kill square to put together another installment. Gotta give all th KH hype a big thumbs down.
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:27 pm 28. Ben Tutin
one questions: which one(s) will feature soa goofy and donald??
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:46 pm 29. codemaster
dam i want those games but i dont have a psp
on 21 Sep 2007 at 8:47 pm 30. codemaster
need psp
on 21 Sep 2007 at 9:04 pm 31. b
Einat … i agree with you totally,WTF…a cell phone game…you got to be f***ing kidding me…
on 21 Sep 2007 at 9:05 pm 32. toni
FINALLY thank god i have a psp and a mobile phone!! :] but are theyre all different storys right!? anyways I need to see a trailer and the birth by sleep one sounds the best to me!!
on 21 Sep 2007 at 9:53 pm 33. blergh
i am so disopointed….
on 21 Sep 2007 at 10:12 pm 34. exdeath64
finally. a kh ds game!!! and i won fifty bucks!!! (gambling is not illegal if no one cares…) (joke, but seroisly it sounds like a good game!)
on 21 Sep 2007 at 10:31 pm 35. ray
for ppl wondering about those games kh:coded was made because that mobile phones r popular in japan so yah that why they made it. for ppl wonder if ven is roxas and vise versa it is ven.. actually roxas nver existed. Normra (sp?) confirmed that ven looks excatly like roxas but with a alter to the clothes, but its a whole new person not roxas but ven. and the 14th mem is a female but my theory could be namine. who would expect to be be figuring that she is a nobody and could be a possibillity.
on 21 Sep 2007 at 10:36 pm 36. Eden Rose
so is there still going to be a kingdom hearts for the ps3???? becuse there making loads on different consoles which mean more money to spend, not good. WEll i cnt wait for the release of the ps3 (if there is one)
on 21 Sep 2007 at 10:52 pm 37. RiKu
WHAT!? A game for a freakin cell phone!!!!!
358/2 Days and Birth by Sleep both sound like AWESOME games tho. CAN’T WAIT!!!!!!!
on 21 Sep 2007 at 10:53 pm 38. venom
I think Ashley Tisdale should provide the voice of Aqua
on 21 Sep 2007 at 11:00 pm 39. RiKu
What a let down. RiKu sighs in dissapointment…
on 22 Sep 2007 at 12:38 am 40. Tazimus Prime
I have to agree with ray that namine is that 14th member of the Organization.
on 22 Sep 2007 at 1:09 am 41. poii
great now i need to get a psp and ds there goes all my hard earn cash
on 22 Sep 2007 at 3:17 am 42. sskh12
It’s kind of dissapointing,I was hoping for the games `to be on ps3. But i guess i will just have to buy the psp. But im still really excited! Cant wait for them to come out!!
on 22 Sep 2007 at 3:21 am 43. Axelblade
Um just a quick question im not really clear on.
So the New KH games are not going to be released on Soney PS2 OR PS3?
Please some one with close to perfect information answer this question.
Thanks!
on 22 Sep 2007 at 3:28 am 44. King Mickey
Ok fine I’ll answer your question
Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep: PSP
Kingdom Hearts 258/2 Days: DS
Kingdom Hearts Coded: cell phones
I actually think this was a pretty good idea. Nomura wanted the next games on a handheld, which is cool, like with CoM. Come on people, you should all have either a psp or DS by now. As for the cell phone game, Nomura was definitely smokin crack when he came up with that.
on 22 Sep 2007 at 3:30 am 45. King Mickey
By the way I only have DS, I’m just gonna borrow my friend’s PSP which used to be mine actually. And to clear things up there will NEVER be another KH game on the PS2, I know, it sucks, just deal with it and get a new system!
on 22 Sep 2007 at 4:05 am 46. bane1190
Thank GOD(s) it isn’t on the PS3!
I would have been SO mad. Because I am NOT buying a $600 piece of exploding junk, no matter WHAT game comes for it.
Maybe when the price goes down, but that’s a waste.
on 22 Sep 2007 at 4:20 am 47. Axelblade
I feel sad.
on 22 Sep 2007 at 6:06 am 48. Sora92
Nooooooooo! Why other consoles!! Kingdom Hearts belong to PS2!!! I was afraid of this will happen!!
And still I afraid that Kingdom HEarts 3 will be for PS3! I am doomed..I don’t have money for PS3! Why god!?
on 22 Sep 2007 at 6:16 am 49. Tazimus Prime
Ok first of all cell phones are very popular in Japan and so are games for them. So that is why that game was made. Second, these are just the side stories that were confirmed to be released on the hand held systems. Kingdom Hearts 3 will probably be released on the PS3.
on 22 Sep 2007 at 7:51 am 50. Steve
Hm.. Cant anyone refer the release dates of birth by sleep on USA, and on Europe?.. And is this game on DS or PSP?
please answer.
