Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue Announced

Last week rumours spread around the Internet after an employee leaked information that he had worked on a game titled Kingdom Hearts 2.9. Many assumed this would be a demo to Kingdom Hearts III or include a version of the previously Nintendo 3DS exclusive Dream Drop Distance. Well during TGS Square Enix has announced they will be releasing a new game called Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue exclusively for the PS4. KH 2.8 will contain a full HD remaster of Dream Drop Distance, a non-playable cutscene movie and a playable ‘short episode’.

The cutscene movie is called Back Cover and covers the events of Kingdom Hearts Unchained X (pronounced chi). Unchained X is a Japanese exclusive mobile version of a browser game and predates Birth By Sleep, telling the tale of the Foretellers and detailing more of the series’ history. Birth By Sleep 0.2 (quite possibly the long awaited Birth By Sleep Volume 2) – A Fragmentary Passage is being labelled as a ‘short episode’, this episode will feature brand new content telling the events following the original Birth By Sleep from Aqua’s perspective, after she faded into darkness when saving Terra. Nomura has stated the episode will take the same amount of time to complete this episode as it would take to complete one world.

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue will release in Japan sometime in 2016 with an International release not yet detailed. While I believe the initial point of these HD remasters was so that each Kingdom Hearts game could be on one console, it seems 2.8 is breaking this by being a PS4 exclusive. Maybe we will see 2.9 as some sort of all encompassing collection for the PS4? Let us know your fan theories in the comments below.

Remember Ni-Oh? Well you probably don’t since it was originally announced for the PlayStation 3 all the way back in 2005 only to never actually be released.

Well it looks like it will be coming back in a big way as Koei Tecmo took to the stage tonight at Sony’s Tokyo Game Show press conference to not only announce the release of Toukiden 2 but also to reveal that Ni-Oh has been revived as a PlayStation 4 exclusive that will be released sometime in 2016. Despite being in the works for over a decade, the company provided very few details on the title, only saying that it would be incredibly difficult to clear in one try and released the below announcement video.

Assassin’s Creed Syndicate may not have been released yet but considering the title is set in Victorian London there is no way that Ubisoft could resist announcing some DLC early for the game by focusing entirely on one of England’s greatest unsolved mysteries.

Ubisoft has announced at Sony’s Tokyo Game Show that some DLC will add content to the game that relates to Jack the Ripper will be released sometime after the game is released. Currently no details for what this Jack the Ripper DLC will contain were revealed, but it does state that it will be included in Assassin’s Creed Syndicate’s season pass.
