News: Square Enix releases a new trailer showing off Kingdom Hearts 2.8 with a Simple and Clean remix.

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue is set to be released next month on the PS4. Earlier today Square Enix released a new trailer that is the final update leading up to the highly anticipated entry in the franchise, Kingdom Hearts III, which will conclude Xehanort’s Dark Seeker Saga.

The trailer features gameplay footage and cutscenes from each title in the compilation: the remastered Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD, and the entirely brand-new chapters Kingdom Hearts χ [chi] Back Cover and Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep – A fragmentary passage –. Accompanied by “Simple And Clean –Ray of Hope MIX–“, a new remix version of the theme tune for the series by Utada Hikaru. The trailer peeks into the machinations of the foretellers and the threat of a traitor within that which will lead to the devastating Keyblade War; the fate of Aqua as she battles to survive through the perilous and deceptive dangers of the Dark World; as well as Yen Sid’s wisdom on what Sora, Riku, and King Mickey must do in order to prepare for the final confrontation against Master Xehanort.

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue is a compilation that brings the popular Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance to the PlayStation 4 remastered in high definition. The newly remastered title also features Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep – A fragmentary passage –, a completely new playable episode that links to the story of Kingdom Hearts III, taking place after the storyline of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep and told from the perspective of Aqua. Also included in the compilation is Kingdom Hearts χ [chi] Back Cover, a new HD movie that tells the mysterious story of the foretellers, connecting the earliest parts of the series’ history and directly ties to the mobile title Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ.

Take a look at the trailer below and tell us what you think. In addition to Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue coming out next month, the Kingdom Hearts 1.5 & 2.5 Remix is coming to the PlayStation 4 as well in March. Will you be picking up both collections?
