    Square Enix has announced Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX exclusively for PlayStation 3! It’s the original Kingdom Hearts returning in gorgeous HD graphics with new content like trophy support and more! Coming to everyone in North America, Canada, Europe and Australia in Fall 2013.

    Here’s what Square Enix has to tell you: “Lots of you have been asking, and we’ve been anxious to tell ya, so without further delay, it’s our great pleasure to announce the North American release of Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMIX! This collection contains the classic original game redone in HD along with the immediate continuation of Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories and HD enhanced cutscenes from Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days!

    Not only do you get these classic titles in breathtaking HD, but the original Kingdom Hearts is enhanced with Kingdom Hearts Final Mix previously only available in Japan. This new edition comes complete with additional weapons, enemies, skills, scenes and more!

    How about them apples? Pretty awesome, right? :D

    Watch the Japanese Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX trailer here. Turn on captions to see English subtitles.

    A little more backstory: In Kingdom Hearts, Sora wields the magical keyblade in search of his lost friends, making new ones with Disney’s Goofy and Donald along the way. The story continues through classic Disney stories like Aladdin, Hercules, Alice in Wonderland, Pinocchio, and The Nightmare Before Christmas! Utilizing RPG mechanics and gaining new exploratory powers throughout his adventure, Sora solidified himself as a starry-eyed hero that bridged Disney classics with a unique overarching story of friendship and courage.

    Final Fantasy fans can expect appearances by famous characters such as Cloud, Selphie, Aeris, and Cid, or even the infamous fan favorite Sephiroth!

    It’s a great time to get started on the series if you’re a newcomer now that this edition is being made exclusively available to PlayStation 3 with full trophy support. But long-time fans will likewise be thrilled to replay the original and see their favorite moments relived in crisp HD colors and graphics.

    As for long-time fans, they only have one question for Square Enix:

    What is the Kingdom Hearts 3 release date?

    Are you excited for Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX as the ultimate KH version?

      AWESOME, I am going to order it this month in Japanese since I will have more time to get into the series, cause by time I delay it, PS4 will come out and it be a waste for me to buy PS3 games since it won’t work on PS4 :(

      where is KH3 already

      Can’t come soon enough, that’s for sure. I think it’ll be a few more years and at that point it’ll probably make the jump to PS4.

      Does the Japanese version come with English subtitles? I can’t imagine playing it without knowing what their saying heh.
      Yeah, I agree, it’s weird timing to release this HD version at the end of 2013. Would’ve been a great summer holiday title.

      I think it will be only Japanese sub, but the best part is that all the voices are English, which makes a huge plus for me =)

    • Fahd Al Zarooni

      Good question.

      Oh really? That’s awesome! I hope the PS4 stays region-free like the PS3 is, very handy for importing games. :)
