Tokyo Game Show Coverage: Kingdom Hearts for the PC? Can it be?
Hey you guys, Roxy here (totally still alive!) As of 9:42 AM PST, it was revealed that character designs for an upcoming Kingdom Hearts game meant for the PC would be done by Monster Octopus. If you want an idea of just how such a thing would even look think back to Theatrhythm and the KH Mobile games and you’ll have just a bit of an idea. In terms of action the game appears to be simple in its design and overall execution: a character can be seen leaping, moving about and striking those familiar little treasure chests we all love with a keyblade. This character can also be seen attacking in a manner fans may be slightly familiar with and according to Zephyr of Kingdom Hearts Insider things are only going to get more interesting both for the PC game and the upcoming HD release:
Should we expect that fans are brought into the Keyblade War!? In this work, all players, can become owners of the Keyblade. Earlier in “BEFORE CRISIS: FINAL FANTASY VII”, Square Enix provided us with a game where everyone can become Turks; I didn’t expect this.
By the way, it seems to be firmly confirmed that Disney characters will appear. A video showed “Alice in Wonderland” had appeared on the screen. What other Disney characters will appear? To be honest, I was really anxious. The character designer is Monster Octopus, who made the familiar avatars from “KINGDOM HEARTS Mobile” and “THEATRHYTHM: FINAL FANTASY”.
Furthermore there is one more new work, for the Playstation 3, “KINGDOM HEARTS -HD I.5 ReMIX-”. There will be HD versions of “KINGDOM HEARTS FINAL MIX” and “KINGDOM HEARTS Re:Chain of Memories”, and there will be HD versions of cuscenes summarizing “KINGDOM HEARTS 358/2 Days” to enjoy.
Also in the HD version of “KINGDOM HEARTS FINAL MIX”, it will include Japanese voice acting. Please enjoy the additional cutscene of Cloud and Sephiroth that will also have Japanese voice acting. The KINGDOM HEARTS series is strong because of its story, that many people felt in the middle of the series. The release date will be in the year 2013. The title in the series means that you will be able to enjoy the storyline along the timeline, please look forward to it by all means.
I can’t lie to you all, throw in some disney characters and add a bit of Square and I still feel that nostalgic twinge of excitement that first coursed through my body ten years ago. I would be thrilled if they decided to add characters we weren’t expecting, like Kida and Milo from Atlantis, or perhaps Oliver and Dodger from Oliver and Company–the possibilities are limitless really! What Disney characters would you like to see? What do you think of the designs that will be used? I for one am still trying to get used to the idea of a Kingdom Hearts game for the PC, I mean really is there a medium they HAVEN’T used yet at this point? But I want to hear your opinions guys, so blow that comment section up and tell us all your thoughts!

Well, when I think of what’s left of the disney catalog I come up empty from a male perspective. Classic male Disney characters from movies are pretty much used up. here is my list
Charcters
Mini Mouse/Daisy maybe something with Kiri,
Pocahontas- and her world (let her lead us/join the party, not john smith)
The Rescuers would be interesting,
Tangled: Maximus and Pascal: – (summon)
Snow White: Dwarves -as a summon
Avalon/ King arthur – Sword in the Stone (forget merlin’s house)
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Ducktales: Huey, Duey, Louie or Gizmo Duck (Summon),
Duckburg would be interesting to visit
Pete’s Dragon: Elliot the dragon – (Summon)
If we’re going live action, I’d love to see a version of the original Swiss Family Robinson: tiger pits, Francis, Ernest, Roberta, Stereo typical asian pirates and all
No Frankinweenie, More Halloweentown!!!
In the end, these would all be awesome to see, especially Elliot from Pete’s Dragon, but the one thing that must comeback for 3 is Pooh. I liked the side story from part one, but the Pooh Bear side story for part two was amazingly accomplished, and I couldn’t imagine Sora not visiting Pooh again in 3. What can I say, I’m a softy, and the 1000 acher woods storylines cut all the way to my poorly hidden gooey core. The wait is taking too long

i would like to see so many different disney worlds and characters! a few of the worlds i’d enjoy to see would be
emperors new groove, another lion king and halloweentown, finding nemo, monsters inc, toy story, a bugs life (pretty much any pixar movie), the jungle book and dumbo maybe. even the three caballeros would be cool!
can do side quests with lady and the tramp or the fox and the hound, the aristocats or bambi.. their are seriously so many choices i want to see them all!!I definitely agree with derek that 100 acre woods needs to be in 3! it wouldnt seem right if it wasnt! I am a recently new kingdom hearts fan, i remember when it first came out and i really wanted the game but i didnt have a ps2
i have a ps3 now and hope kh3 comes out on it!
about the online kh stuff, i think it would be cool. personally i’m not for online games, but i definitely may change my mind for kh! im have no patience whatsoever! kh3 PLEASE HURRY!<3

There’s literally no need for a pc version. If you already own the game legit then Just download the pcsx2 emulator and already you have a version with better HD than any “official HD release” could ever provide.

i love kingdom hearts just saying!!! but 1000 acer woods would be fun to see again and some of the pixar movie characters would be fun, and now that disney owns star wars that would be epic and indiana jones too.
