Birth by Sleep focuses on the story of Keyblade masters before Sora from the original Kingdom Hearts game[7] and is a prequel, taking place ten years before the original Kingdom Hearts.[8] Nomura has stated that though there are three scenarios, there is not one singularly important scenario or character, but that the main theme is Ven's identity.[6] The story was speculated early on to be connected to the unlockable trailers at the end of Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix.[9] Nomura has since confirmed a connection to the trailers.[10] The story revolves around three Keyblade apprentices in search of a missing Keyblade master, Master Xehanort,[1] and his apprentice.[3] Their disappearance foreshadows a great disaster.[1] The game will take place in various Disney-themed worlds, both new and old, and will reflect the time difference between this game and the previous Kingdom Hearts games.[6][10] Other worlds featured are from Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella.

The only milk from the Kingdom Hearts cash cow that looks pretty stellar. I'm not too keen on (insert math problem here) Days or Coded, but this is the milk 'n' honey of it all, IMO

Is it just me or does this look very similar to Crisis Core, especially the first and last two screens? The guy in the first two screens looks like Zack.

It looks okay. I'm not a fan of the KH series (although the first one was okay) so I'm not really excited about this, but it looks decent.

Your pretty right and the other d00d looks like a Roxas clone. Nomura must be running out of ideas IMO

No, Roxas's game is that funky number one. This is the guy from Final Mix+'s secret ending. His name was confirmed I think, but it escapes me. There might be a reason he looks like Roxas though...

Yes. This is a prequel, while Roxas was created between the timeframe of the two main games (or so I remember, it has been ages)

Not to my knowledge it isn't :\ Unless that screenshot came from the DS game, I'm 90% positive that isn't Roxas. If not, my mistake, but I'm almost certain it isn't.

EDIT: It is NOT Roxas. His name is Ven and the Zack-looking guy is Terra. The final character, Aqua, is the female not shown.

this guy. this isn't roxas?

sorry but i cant really believe someone is trying to say it isnt roxas when it is the same face. kh isn't really known for it's unbendable story, they could very easily introduce some kind of time travel thing or a change-into-other-keymasters thing if they wanted to.

also reading up on kh cashins, kh coded sounds amazing

play as king mickey and debug blocks to move towards the enemy!!

edit:
Nomura had also stated that the name "Ven" is an alias, and his real name is longer.
In the Japanese version of Birth by Sleep, Ven will be voiced by Koki Uchiyama, who also voices Roxas.

oh come on

To restate my edit, his name is Ven. He is actually to be voiced in Japan by the same guy as Roxas. I believe there is a link between him and Roxas but I can now say with 105% confidence that he is not Roxas.

handsome lamb: Who is really to say, it is supposed to have a lot to do with Xehanort, but who really can say, other than Nomura and his team...

But that would contradict 358/2 Days :\ I mean Roxas only exists in the continuum between Sora becoming a heartless at Hallow Bastion to Sora's reawakening a year or so after.

same ui
probably same controls

Why would they? It would only lead to confusion when people play BbS and 358/2. I'm not ruling it out as a possibility, but it seems highly unlikely.

The way I see it, it is more likely for Roxas to be HIM than him to be Roxas, if that makes much sense.

lamb: You have a point, after all, it seems to me more like they are milking the series. They'll probably just tack on extras and say its a new game :\
