Kingdom Hearts Union X Japan updated with 5 more quests today (No. 876~880). The new world based on Wreck-It-Ralph, called "Niceland" makes its debut!
Watch the scenes with English subs, translations by goldpanner!
Ephemera: Is this… the new world?
Chirithy: There are so many exits.
Oh, there!
(You see the bugs go into Fix-It-Felix Jr. Player starts to run off after them but Ephemera stops them.)
Ephemera: Wait a minute.
(On the other side of the station, the Darkling escapes to Hero's Duty.)
Chirithy: Ah, there too!
Ephemera: The source of the glitches, and the Darkling's goal…
It looks like we will have to split up to investigate.
I'll go after the Darkling. Player, you check out the glitches!
(You nod and split up.)
(Player and Chirithy arrive in Niceland. Chirithy looks around but can't find the bugs.)
Chirithy: They got away…
We can't just let them go. Let's hurry up and find them!
(You start walking away when all of a sudden, a scream sounds out. You look in the direction to see a tall apartment building being attacked by Heartless.)
Chirithy: Heartless too??
(You get ready to charge.)
Chirithy: Seems like you know what to do.
(You defeat the Heartless and continue making your way up the building to confront the mystery man.)
???: Who are you?
Don't tell me you're trying to go Turbo! Not in my game, you don't!
(You defeat the man and send him falling off the edge of the building. But then, a voice calls out.)
???: Ralph.
(Someone emerges from a window.)
???: Ralph!
(He spots the Player.)
???: Wait, did you…
(He runs over to the edge and sees Ralph lying in the mud.)
???: Oh no!
(He pushes you away.)
Felix: What are you doing! You can't just come into our game and do whatever you…
Well, okay, Ralph is a villain, but he's an important villain in this game.
Ralph wrecks, I fix. The who defeats him is me, Felix.
It looks like the players didn't notice, so you're off the hook this time, but make sure to be careful from now on.
Now, I have to go prepare for a party. See you.
(You watch him run off. Meanwhile, Ralph cleans himself up and makes his way towards the rubble he calls home. He covers himself in bricks and looks up at the building.)
Ralph: I'd like to try being a hero, like Felix.
Players will obtain the new "Bad Guy Breaker" Keyblade upon clearing quest 880. To upgrade this Keyblade, players must use magic gems and a special trophy, which is obtained from clearing a quest objective. It currently caps out at +5.
3 new songs have been added in this update: the theme of Game Central Station, as well as field and battle themes for Niceland. Listen to them below!
COMMENTS
Gaston, Cobra Jafar, Ralph. The number of Disney bosses wasted by this game continues to mount.
Added the new songs to the OP.
While I’m grateful we got a new world at all…really, Square? Just the KH1 Heartless? No unique designs for the games they invade? Not even a couple Pogo Shovels?
The muuuuuuusiiiiiiiic!!!!!

It’s still early, they might appear in following quests. Every world has gotten new Heartless designs; I fail to see why this would be the exception when we’ve only been in it for like 5 minutes.
Oh my god the music is so good! ;~; thank you Shimomura for gifting us with new music.
Thanks for the phenomenal work as always, Sign! ❤
Finally! I haven't had a chance to watch the cutscenes or read any translations yet, so can somebody explain what the Niceland is? Is it like a ... sub-world to the Game Station? And I'm guessing it's Ralph's game?
Thanks Sign~!

Yes to both. Player enters Niceland through a gateway in Game Central Station. Like in the film, there are gates to all the other games here as well (Ephemera went to Hero’s Duty during this time, which will likely also have a unique name). Niceland is the name of the town where Ralph’s game takes place.
I like the amount of detail that went into Niceland. Seeing the trash, Felix train, and Ralph's brick bed is a nice touch.
Hopefully the Bad Guy Breaker makes it into KH3 as a DLC keyblade
Subbed videos are up! As always, thanks to goldpanner for her awesome work <3

Eh, you're right. It's not the end of the world unless Square decides "You know what? The KH1 Heartless are all good, dunno what kinda Heartless would fit in a WiR world anyway".
Wait, if Hero's Duty exists here then...
Oh dear.
On a picking of the nitting note, Ralph has zero right having that much health.
Sooo... If Niceland is a world inside of Game Central Station, could GCS be a bridge world to other video game based worlds?

KH 3.5 - Riku finds a way into Game Central Station, then accesses Verum Rex.

Yeah, he should be capped at 255.

SHUT UP! You're making TOO much sense, and it HYPES ME UP! xD

My theory is that some of Ansem's data in Space Paranoids contains Game Central Station. Riku uses Game Central Station to jump to Verum Rex. It's possible that Game Central Station is in the Sleeping Realm (or the data is sleeping) and that's how Verum Rex is linked to Shibuya.
I just came to realise that we may end up getting special Keyblades from Hero's Duty and Sugar Rush. That's a cool thought.
Well there goes a World that everyone wanted for Either Kingdom Hearts 3 or the next Saga oh well no Wreck it Ralph world for Sora.

While it missed its chance for KH3 Central Game Station can still appear in the next saga under the right circumstances.

But then it begs the question, why is Sora there? If it's a data world, what happened?

Big Hero 6 was the designated Data themed world for Kingdom Hearts III and we don't even know the plot of Kingdom Hearts IV so we cannot even assume what worlds will make it to that game.
But then it begs the question, why is Sora there? If it's a data world, what happened?
Well if the theory about jumping timelines is real... in KHUX they went to another timeline that is made of data. Maybe Sora ended up in a data Shibuya that is in another timeline?
Just wondering, why is his name still being translated to Ephemera? Hasn't it been officially confirmed as Ephemer for a while now?

It's actually Data Sora from Coded?

The Japanese text has it as Ephemera, so that’s how Goldpanner and Sign decide to translate it rather than with his actual name. They did swap to Brain though.
It's actually Data Sora from Coded?
Maybe. If data is becoming really relevant, and we now have a world that's not really supposed to exist technically, then Data Sora could easily fit in with whatever this plot line has planned.

I thought the many Sora's gig ended with KH3. :(

It has just begun... they moved from heart/body semi-clones to data full-clones of Sora himself.

Just you wait, soon we'll get literal Shadow Clones of Sora!
*Flashback to Neverland*
Never mind...
Back to the data topic, with data crossing into the real world, I think this may just be how we'll play through another Keyblade War: the wielders will be data.
Just wondering, why is his name still being translated to Ephemera? Hasn't it been officially confirmed as Ephemer for a while now?
You're the only person who's acknowledged us still using the old spelling lol. Even when we were making a big stink about Brain, my usage of Ephemera slipped by unnoticed. Since no one cared, I stubbornly stuck with the 'a', partially because of habit, which is what happens when a character takes like 1.5 years to be introduced to the western audience, and partially because the name with the 'a' is undeniably better.
In all seriousness, meant to drop the 'a' in the last update, but 'lo and behold, no one says his name and he decides to ditch us. So the next time his name is said or whatever will be when we start using Ephemer like everyone else.
Edit: I want to add that I probably would have dropped the 'a' last year but SE decided to call him Ephemera at the Dandelion Meeting and it revitalized me 8D

I need someone to explain something to me. It was said that all the world used to be one before the keyblade war. We know that the worlds that appear in KHUX are from the future and are data versions of those worlds. So when did the split happen? Was it after KHX but we don't go to those real worlds because KHUX takes place in the unchained realm? Or is it that the keyblade war that split off those worlds hasn't taken place yet?

I think it would've happened in KH Chi. Unless something crazy happened in the events of Union X that pretty much ruined the universe as we know it. In KHUX, the war never happens, and nobody but the new union leaders remember what happened. So I'm guessing if they went to their original realm, it'd probably look a lot like how it is today: separated, and Daybreak Town would most likely be destroyed.
Honestly didn't expect to be going into Sugar Rush so soon. We'd need to reunite with Ephemer in Hero's Duty first, so that kid better not have died or something. Every time we split up I get so worried ;-; I'm sure he's safe with Calhoun, right?
Edit: Now that it's not 4am, I should make a correction that "Sugar Rush" in the tweet doesn't refer to the game Sugar Rush but the Japanese name of the film "Wreck-It-Ralph". So we're probably hanging out in Niceland proper for a while before meeting Vanellope.
