[i]"Believing light and darkness must remain in balance, Master Xehanort seeks to spark war against the ‘tyranny of light’ to restore equilibrium. In an effort to undermine Xehanort’s plot, Sora, Donald and Goofy search for seven guardians of light and the “Key to Return Hearts,” while King Mickey and Riku search for previous Keyblade wielders."[/i] Kingdom hearts is the latest installment, being officially announced back at E3 2013 and takes place right after KH: Dream Drop Distance Confirmed worlds include: Tangled, twilight Town, Olympus, Land of departed and Big hero 6 Gameplay has completely evolved from previous titles, Flowmotion returns (Dream drop Distance mechanic were the player could use the environment to traverse and interact with the world, including making huge leaps, wall jumping, grind rails and even attack enemies) KH3 introduces a new command system called atraction flow which lets sora perform various attacks that look like Disney theme parks. Confirmed so far (not official names): Big Magic Mountain, Pirate airship and Teacup mayhem. These attacks can only be triggered under certain conditions during battle, both during normal battles or boss battles (Big Magic Mountain vs. Hercules Rock titan) Sora's main weapon the Keyblade can now transform into different weapons during battle, each Keyblade the player obtains will have a different weapon and unique abilities. Confirmed so far are: Rocket launcher, Dual handguns, spear chariot, turret, etc. Sora can also wallrun now Magic in the series also got an improvement as it can now affect the environment, examples Include Blizzard making a pond of ice in a water pond and aero moves can shape the grass. Reaction commands (where players used the Triangle button to interact) will be replaced with Situation commands from Birth By sleep in which numerous commands can appear and interacted at the same time. (In other words QTEs are less and while situation commands are similar to it, they also bring more freedom to the battle) A.I has been improved significally, as sora's allies can invite the player to certain tecniques and enemies work better together in succesion KH3 will mostly feature new worlds and complete overhauls of old worlds. Completely New worlds include Tangled and Big Hero 6 and a new Hercules world Called Olympus will be the new main Hercules area (KH1 had the colosseum and KH2 introduced the underworld), according to some articles Halloween Town and Pride lands are not making a return. Drive forms are confirmed to retur(Valor, Wisdom, Master,etc) including two new forms called guard form (which turns the keyblade into a shield) and power form. Final fantasy characters are confirmed to return (duh) This is what we know so far that is confirmed Rumors and wishes: according to Tesuya Nomura, due to both Pixar, Marvel and Lucasfilms being now part of Disney, he will love to see in some capacity some involvement from these franchises albeit unlikely. As a fan of the series since i was a kid, i can't wait for more info to pop up during the next months, on July 15th at D23 they will showcase an official new trailer with a brand new world introduced to the series (IMO either Frozen, gameplay of BH6 or Moana, wishful thinking it could be Treasure planet tho) no official release date has been revealed and probably won't be this year but im looking foward to seeing more. Thoughts? What would you love to see in the game?
