Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep will have a 10+ character cast. It is the first game in the series for the PlayStation Portable handheld system and has been built from the ground up to take advantage of the PSP’s features.
This adventure focuses on Terra, Ventus, and Aqua from the secret movie in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix+. It’s being created by the same team that made Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories. Each of the three main characters mentioned above are controllable and they all have their own combat style and different story scenarios. The story branches between all three but will meet up at certain points. In order to fully understand the game’s story you will need to play all the scenarios.
Here is the list of known characters in Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep for PSP:
1. Aqua
2. Donald Duck
3. Goofy
4. King Mickey
5. Master Xehanort
6. Master Xehanort’s Apprentice
7. Maleficent
8. Princesses of Heart
9. Young Riku
10. Terra
11. Unbirths
12. Ven (AKA Ventus)
13. Yen Sid
14. Young Sora
Here’s a trailer for Birth By Sleep:
No release date has been announced yet. For Japan it might come out in December 2009. As a guess, a worldwide release might not happen until sometime in the last half of 2010.
Yay for a new KH Game, but where’s the New one for PS3? That’s what I’d love.
I think you forgot it’s Square Enix developing an RPG game here. Slow doesn’t even begin to describe it! Maybe by 2020 Kingdom Hearts III will be out.
Ventus = Ven. They’re the same person. O.o (And Riku should be changed to “Young Riku”.)
Thanks for the heads up Unknown. I’ve added your corrections to Josh’s list.
With the DS Kingdom Hearts game coming out soon, it’s too bad we’ll probably have to wait for this PSP Kingdom Hearts game till late 2010. I imagine Square Enix is keeping a year distance between releases.
