Japanese blog Esuteru had some information that expanded on what has been done to the DS original game Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days for the upcoming HD re-release Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMIX. Here’s what to expect:
- Story will be retold in HD (Are you serious? No way!) in Theater Mode
- Higher polygon models will be used versus the low-poly DS models
- Even more story will be told with extended and re-worked cutscenes
- All scenes will be fully voiced instead of the majority being text only
It’s basically a reiteration of information that’s been shared before, but perhaps they want to get the idea across that there are more scenes than the original? I’m totally happy with reworked, fully voiced cutscenes, but extra scenes are a nice bonus!
Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD ReMIX is due out in Japan on March 14th, 2013. Sadly we still have no word on a worldwide release, but with Kingdom Hearts’ huge success, you can bet other countries will be getting it.
