Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded At The New York Comic Con

by Nick

Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded was recently featured at the New York Comic Con where fans of the series were able to play a demo of the game. Fortunately for them, the demo was in English and looks very impressive based on the videos below.

The demo seems to include one or two of the game's "System Area Floors" instead of any main story elements. This is essentially part of the game's multiplayer mode with added benefits to the single player experience such as gaining experience and items.

The third video is a quick guide to the Square Enix booth, a nice benefit to those who missed the event. Read our full story to see the videos.

Unfortunately no breaking developments from this video, but it sure is pretty to watch.

Sora and Riku Confirmed for Birth by Sleep In Commercial

PSP by Nick

A brand new, high quality, video of the upcoming PSP title, Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep, has just been released confirming that Sora and Riku will be featured in the game.

The video is essentially an advertisement for the game to be released on the 9th of January, 2010 in Japan. Twenty one seconds into the video, it is confirmed that Sora and Riku will make an appearance in the new game and will also be younger than in previous Kingdom Hearts, this makes sense as Birth By Sleep is set 10 years before the events of the first game. The video is in Japanese of course, but European and American viewers can enjoy the vast array of levels and gameplay shown in our full story.

Hopefully after the Japanese release of Birth By Sleep, we will start to see some advertisements for the Western release of the game, coupled with that all elusive release date for the West.
