Kingdom Hearts 3 extended trailer - Image 1Some have speculated that the secret trailers at the end of every Kingdom Hearts game are what Square Enix has in store for the next chapters of this epic tale. While others would dismiss this as wishful thinking, the "secret trailer" at the end of Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix really got us thinking about its possibility.

Is this the path Square Enix plans on taking? The cartoony feel of the previous two (three if you count the release on the GBA) seems to have been replaced with a Final Fantasy-esque appearance. In addition, the story seems a bit darker, a bit more mature, a bit more serious. While watching the video (way back in 2006, we know) sent shivers down our spine, we wondered if this change might cause problems like what happened to the video game Prince of Persia.

PSU brought this video at the end of Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix to our attention again. And it's true that this created more questions than answers. Where's Sora? Was he the one walking through the dust or is he one of the three warriors? Is Sora even in Kingdom Hearts 3? Who are the two characters in the picture? You will see them in the extended trailer but not in the normal trailer we have at the bottom (uploaded by SorasNobodyXII back in June 2006). We're still searching for answers, so if any of you can give any information on the game, feel free to help out the Kingdom Hearts community by letting others know what's going on. For now, you can check out the non-extended trailer at the bottom.

 » Kingdom Hearts will never loose Disney

Kingdom Hearts will never loose it's cartoony feel. This is merely the new Secret Movie. Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts Final Mix had 2 Secret movies and they sported a very dark motif, and Kingdom Hearts 2 was still full of Disney.

but i dont think sony would sell out the people that want to keep their console. im pretty sure 3 will be sony exclusive. they may not use better graphics but a bigger disk gives room for a longer story. beside the ps2 isnt exactly dead. it could very well come out for the ps2. just cuz you can imagine using the wiimote as akeyblade doesnt make it a good idea. your arms would get tired.

cant wait for the longer trailer and news on 3

 » The three warriors

I bet the three warriors are Sora, Riku and Kairi. They are two males and a female, and we saw that they all wielded key blades in KH2. Anyway that's what I think.

Are you sur that it's Sora Kairi and Riku? Cuz the keyblade in the middle is Sora's and Riku was always taller and bigger as Sora, but it might be...

sora is probably not in the trailer, the creators did an interview and they have announced that the three wariors are not sora, but one does have a connection to him. and the scene is most likely in the past, but they left it unsaid incase they wanted it to be in the future. KH3 will probably be on PS3 and Wii because sony announced that it might go to multiple consoles.

 » who it is

they put it in chines or japanes or wat ever so you cant read it one of them ar roxes ive never seen a girl fiting in these games before exept for kairi and that was only once.........

 » I think their parents are them

In another preview you see the faces of the masked people and one of them is a girl who looks like Riku but older, another person looks like Roxas, who might be Sora's Dad and the other guy might be Kairi's dad.
I think the preview showed the keyblade war, and that their parents were actually apart of it, think about it, why else would those three be so special?

i realy think you are right

 » roxas is 1 of the guys in armour

the people in armour are sora roxas and kairi in the future because i heard 1 guy in armour saying sora watch out and did you know roxas nearly got killed by xeanort . roxas went tumbling down the mountain. Iknow roxas is 1 of the guys in armour because when the guy in armour fell off the mountain his helmet came off . then i saw roxases face.

 » dream/flashback

I think the parent idea would be prity likely but i think that sometime in the game one of the charictors will have a dream or flashback. Ok back to the parent idea, i think the brown haired guy is sora's dad, the roxas look'n one is kairi's dad, and the blue haired girl is riku's mom. If the whole flashback thing is wrong then something tells me that timetravel has something to do with the whole Xehanort and other dude thing.

how could it be there parents if they where never introduced in the game

   by wildeman8 (Unregistered) - 2007-04-11
 » Kingdom hearts 3

i think that the place that it shows is sora kiri and riku's home world because of all the key blades and the fact that they all have key blades and in the first one they talk about how they were sent to destiny island.
