II.5 Remix

Hey there video editors! Got some more content for you to work with. This time around it's the Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded movie.

With the PS4 versions of 1.5 + 2.5 coming out in a matter of months, I put a hold on recording KH2FM and BBSFM. But I went ahead and recorded this, since Re:Coded is pre-rendered and likely won't be getting any improvements on PS4 (though if it does, we will revisit it).

The next few months are an exciting time for the Kingdom Hearts community, with 2.8 on the horizon, then 1.5 + 2.5 shortly after. We hope you'll stick with us for news updates, community events, and those sweet, sweet vids.

Check out our Cutscene Archive for more. Thanks to @libregkd for keeping it nice and organized.

Even though the promise of Kingdom Hearts III news has been pushed back along with the Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 release date, it looks like we'll still be getting Kingdom Hearts news next month anyway! Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue and Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX will both be appearing at Jump Festa 2017 on December 17 and 18! While neither game will have demos or stage shows, they'll both be receiving new trailers!

Several new screenshots were also released for the games and can be viewed below.

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue will release on the PlayStation 4 on January 12 in Japan and January 24 in North America and Europe. Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX will release on the PlayStation 4 on March 9 in Japan, March 28 in North America, and March 31 in Europe.
