KINGDOM HEARTS 2.8 GAMEPLAY

MisterH Details from this link: http://goingsony.com/stories/259834-nomura-shares-new-details-for-kingdom-hearts-2-8-and-iii 0.2 will include more than one playable Disney world and every world will have different gimmicks. In Enchanted Castle, we have to collect "gears" to manipulate time and restore the town. Cinderella's castle won't be playable, once Aqua enters the castle she will find herself in another world consumed by darkness. The only way to make Aqua stronger in the game is to level up, since there won't be multiple keyblades. There will be side content for completionists. Nomura said in a past interview that the game had a length similar to a regular Kingdom Hearts world, but now that he's played the final game, he says people will be surprised at the duration. It's definitely not a 30 minute demo. Details from this other link: http://goingsony.com/stories/259589-new-kingdom-hearts-0-2-details Nomura discussed how they can easily alter the game thanks to Unreal Engine 4, especially in regards to lighting. What’s in the E3 2016 show floor demo will be in the final version of the game. He wanted to give players something to explore, somewhere they’d have to get high up to get a feel for the area before proceeding. Nomura says Kingdom Hearts III will have a similar feel to it, where free-running to high places and figuring out the map will be necessary. Nomura calls the Heartless Swarm a “Devil’s Wave,” and mentions that they’ve been present since the first Kingdom Hearts III trailer at E3 2013, and that they’re still not at full power. Aqua will only gain strength through leveling up. There are no new Keyblades for her to obtain. When discussing the length of Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep 0.2 -A Fragmentary Passage-, Nomura states that it will feature a lot of cutscenes. The intended play order, according to Nomura, is Dream Drop Distance, then -A Fragmentary Passage-, then Kingdom Hearts III. Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep 0.2 -A Fragmentary Passage- is not entirely scrapped content from Kingdom Hearts III. It was something Nomura felt the need to make, but he didn’t want to slow down the pace of storytelling in Kingdom Hearts III with a lot of backstory, so he cut it out and created a separate installment based upon it. Kingdom Hearts III will have a short prelude before the game fully begins to make sure everyone is caught up with the story.
