Making sense of the numbering system of the Kingdom Hearts franchise practically requires one to possess a doctorate in calculus. Fortunately having to explain how the numbering system works is completely unnecessary to enjoy the series of games that are best known for combining Square-Enix characters with Disney characters, now featuring more TRON. Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue is the final update leading up to the highly anticipated Kingdom Hearts III. Hardcore Gamer did some hands on time with an early build of Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue and discussed some of the details in the upcoming release here.

"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 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."
