That was one of the BEST trailers they've ever done for Kingdom Hearts (outside of that 7 minute BBS trailer).
Love they lip synced the new cutscenes (and "Good-bye buddy". ;A;).
Love that we finally have official translations for the games new bosses. I am so excited right now and I can not wait for December.
Also, Re:coded is looking bad-ass.
So Lingering Will is the official name! Now, no more argue over Lingering Spirit or Lingering Sentiment.

I noticed for a moment Marluxia and Larxene are their Japanese grunts. Odd but no complaints.
Episodes Realm of Darkness and Cavern of Remembrance I can't wait I'm losing so much sleep over this game!
COM organization members are not dubbed.
Also holy crap some of the editing on this trailer was bad.
Watching the original copy, and I can see the aliasing and I know this is what the actual game will look like... and it's not that bad. Quite beautiful really. I'll upload this uncompressed version of the trailer onto our site for all of you soon :)
One of the greatest KH videos ever! The background music they used was a very good choise. Now, I can't wait 4 more months to get my hands on it! At least I won't have to do anything on Christmas..Oh, wait studies.. :(

I agree, much more fitting than the Deep Jungle music they used for 1.5's promotion.
That was a good trailer and it was really just a teaser for total amount of additions.
CGI cutscenes in HD!! EF-YEAH!!
That Larxene battle frame-rate though... :frown:

Same, classes will tie me down until December.
The feels ... Awesome trailer, and good exposition of what is new.
I can't wait to go through KHII FM+ again, and experience BBS FM+ for the first time.
Four months left. *deep breathing*

Same here. A change might have been nice, but honestly, I would have missed Larxene's insane cackling. And Vexen's.
The other takeaway for me was, I guess they are having the English VAs record lines for the new FM2 cutscenes?

Yeah, the E3 trailer showed the new scene with Namine, DiZ, and Axel, as well as Xemnas visiting Aqua's armour. This one showed off Axel saying goodbye to Roxas. Just gives me even more hope they brought back Willa Holland for the secret episode.
Gonna be amazing to finally hear all of this in English.
Oh my! Fate of the Unknown fits perfectly in this trailer, and showing Master Xehanort in the last clip was a very cool choice. Also, did anyone else feel this huge chill go down their body when the trailer showed the bits from Cavern of Remembrance and Aqua in The Relam of Darkness? I also think Yasue wasn`t kidding when they said that had put extra work to Aqua. Just look the scene with Stich, she looks so pretty. :)

Ah yes that's right.
Well, if you listen at 1:50 that's definitely Willa's grunting...and in the original it was the Japanese actress doing the grunting in that scene, so I think it's a safe bet, unless the trailer's lying.

I couldn't really tell if it was Willa or not, but if you can tell it's her THEN IM SO HAPPY! That was the biggest hope for me (much more than the let down of Mirage Arena), as I feared she was too popular with Arrow now to come back.
And the trailer is done! Watch the uncompressed version here!
Royal Radiance. Nice new name for Crown Unlimit.
Can't wait for the new English-dubbed cutscenes with the Org members in the round room and that scene at Twilight's View. (at least I hope they get dubbed!)
To see that battle with TAV against Vanitas and Master Xehanort on a bigger screen is a dream come true. I really like the new content we get with this game. I actually wasn't expecting there to be an English trailer for this so soon! 8D Also, look at all of those new keyblades! Gosh, I can't wait for the in-depth storyline to be revealed to us too. Gosh, this looks outstanding!
Does anybody know, if we'll still get a theater mode at all with this?

It's most distinguishable if you compare the shouts when Red Eyes crashes into Aqua and knocks her down, in both versions.

Every game in all the remasters, excluding Kingdom Hearts, has a theatre mode. They've revealed the names of a few of the scenes that you can view in theatre mode, which is pretty exciting and tragic.
This trailer is so awesome!

But the only theme in the trailer is Fate of the Unknown.
Damn, that's a well-done trailer. Birth By Sleep looks so much more colourful now!
I'm always worried about how BBS would look on a TV, since I'm use to it being on such a small screen, but I'm really impressed by how well it does look.
But the only theme in the trailer is Fate of the Unknown.
Probably just the confusion that Aqua's and Terra's themes were derived from Fate of the Unknown.
That even made me hype for KH2 as much as the other two. o_o

Lol Noticed it too, I love when something is settled~
The Only organization members that maybe dubbed over are Zexion, and Vexen due to them having a new scene in kh2 final mix.
Great trailer, so hyped for some of those new things, only 3 months away for the english release.

Not necessarily. They could re-use the RE:Chain of Memories battle quotes for the other CO members. They did the same Days for several other characters.

Possibly. But in the trailer Marluxia and Larxene's grunts are still voiceed by Shuichi Ikeda, and Yuko Miyamura. So I'm not putting much hope into that.

Actually, they all recorded new battle cries for Days. But yeah they could reuse them from either Days or Re:CoM. In Re:coded, they used Roxas' battle cries from Days.
It shouldnt be hard for them to do this

This is amazing! I've watched it already 3 times (Edit: 4 times now)! This trailer has been added to my "view at least one time a week" list along with the world trailer and E3 trailer. I'm fine with Marluxia's Japanese battle grunts because I prefer them over English but there's a good chance they'll be changed to English. I can't believe the huge graphical improvement and I've never seen a lot of these FM features before like the new cutscenes, I can't wait! It's going to be awesome reliving my KH2 and BBS memories with so many improvements. There's no nostalgia with Re:Coded for me but I'm just as excited for them, they look great!
That looks awesome. I can't wait for it to come out, but I don't know if I want to pre-order or not. The Roxas fight in KH2 in TWTNW looks amazing! I can't wait to fight him!
As great at that was, still NOTHING from Re:Coded :(
They did show a little more from that fight scene, which was nice. But the point of the trailer was to show off the new Final Mix features America never got, since it was made for PAX Prime in Seattle.
This is definitely one of the best Kingdom Hearts trailers ever! And finally, a trailer showing those Final Mix goodies!
Maybe it's just me, but did Terra's hair look darker?
Just got around to watch this trailer (yes, I'm so yesterday) and...
This is brilliant. Pure awesomeness. Truly beautiful. And the choice of soundtrack is just perfect. I got shivers and I really could watch this trailer over and over again.
One thing, is that Royal Radiance Keyblade what is known in Japanese as Crown Unlimit?

Yup, the very same~
Okay, I've watched this trailer maybe 5 times now and it is DEF Square Enix's best one yet. They need to keep that person who made it, whoever they are.
I don't wanna have to buy back a ps3 but I might just have to ;o;!!!
Oh... my heart...
This trailer ROCKED MY SOCKS. Man I am so hype to play Kingdom Hearts! I don't want to wish time away but damn I am super pumped for this to come out. So many hours will be put into this.
I really didn't like the ending sequence they had for it though... I didn't feel like it was edited right or something. It needed to jump cut more or something.
I was dreading that they'd leave the Keyblade Graveyard boss fight scenes the same as they were in the PSP version. Glad it's going to look a lot like the KH 2 FM secret ending now.

I am unsure as to what you are referring to? Nothing in the trailer indicates anything has changed. The CG you saw is played at the beginning of BBS.
Interesting they cut before Sora throws the scythe at Marluxia. Could just be an editing choice for the trailer, but I also felt like if they are keeping the edits from the original Western KH2, that they may have to cut that bit of the animation, as well, to get an E10.

Personally, I felt the CG scenes were a bit on the slow side.
Truly a well made Trailer.
For 2.5, Square and Disney really seem to go all out in terms of Marketing.
KH 2 FM and BBS FM having each more new stuff than KH 1 FM had surely helps with this as well.
Things like the FM stuff if advertised enough might even bring in some of the casuals.
So much for 2.5 "not being exciting" and news for it being a "waste of time which should be used for KH 3 info", lol.
Personally, I felt the CG scenes were a bit on the slow side.
From what I can tell, they slowed down some CG scenes, yeah.
That trailer is just so beautiful! The fact that they actually used a better background track helps so much. I must now face that the dub is officially Lingering Will, but that's okay. I must also deal with the fact they kept that stupid cape after all. Just means I'll have to watch much more carefully during that point of the game.
I think that the best thing about the entire HD collection is that we get all the stuff we missed with the initial FM versions of the games, including some new keyblades 'Two Becomes One' sounds like it will be a cool keyblade. It would be amazing to have high resolutions keyblade renders to use as drawing references, but that likely won't happen.
Does anyone know if this game's trophies have been announced yet besides Mickey and Anti-Sora?

We will try our best to supply this for you!
However, we do have large images of these keyblades from the PS2 versions;

Not yet but we are keeping an eye out for it 24/7 and we anticipate the trophy list soon!

Awesome! That helps so much. I hope some good BBS renders come up at least for the keychains. You guys would be the first ones to have Ends of the Earth's keychain if you do. That really does help me out so much.
If there isn't a trophy for Defeating all the data Organization members I'll be sad.

Don't get your hopes up. The ReMIXes use a different model format than the older PS2/PSP titles and at the moment nobody seems to be interested in documenting it. Also getting the actual files in the first place is a lot more difficult because the PS3 is still a pretty closed system.
The keychains will probably look the same as on the PSP, just using the double texture size.
Loved the trailer. The editing was excellent, something I don't say as often as I feel like I should for Square Enix titles.
I think the only thing that ruined my immersion was the appearance of the Organization XIII Mushrooms and the Unversed challenges appearing when they did. Those scenes seemed a tad bit out of place in regards to where they played during the segment of "Fate of the Unknown" that gave birth to Aqua's theme.

Even then, I haven't found any decent renders of the keychain for the original PSP model either. Can't very well draw accurately if you botch the keychain. Thanks for the information though.

This is a real quick job:
You can download them individually (don't forget to enhance the image two times) or download the whole album here. It's just PSP quality so don't expect too much.:wink:
