One of the biggest unresolved mysteries regarding KHIII still surrounds Cable Town. By now, we should know the concept, but what surprises me is how nothing has ever materialised about this, especially when you now look at the reveals they have made (especially in relation to character plot.) 

 

Whilst, I am not expecting any information at either event at TGS, this does seem a good time to re-raise the discussion again. My theory for Cable Town was that this was the original Land of Departure and that we would restore it back to its original glory similar to Hollow Bastion and Radiant Garden, the history was forgotten, but not lost. However, in the last trailer it seems that the Land of Departure has already been restored, which to a certain extent debunks my theory. 

 

Carrying on, Roxas' location does not seem to match the description of CT either, unless it's in a destroyed form and by the end it will be reformed.

 

Now, I believe the mystery of Cable Town has four  potential revelations. Firstly, it's a concept that has been dropped and is no longer a part of KHIII. 

 

Secondly, Cable Town was merely a concept name/code name for a world we already know- which would support the Land of Departure theory.

 

Thirdly, we have seen Cable Town already- I.E the Chess Location, it has just not been revealed to us yet. Whilst this is plausible, it does seem odd why Nomura or somebody when discussing the scene has not mentioned this fact or even said "oh this is a new location etc."

 

Fourthly, and this is something I can see happening- this location will become important in the ongoing UX storyline and will eventually be revealed in certain updates. We know that eventually the plot will have an impact on KHIII and the presence of our new leaders will be felt throughout the game, I think a few of us are expecting an original world relating to UX, so perhaps this will be it. Also this would explain why it's not been mentioned. 

 

I just find it weird that after all these years, nothing has ever come up about this publicly and perhaps we never will know the truth about the legend of Cable Town.

I think Cable Town might be the Land of Departure. If you look at pictures of what Cable Town was going to look like, it looks like The Land of Departure (though Land of Departure lseems to be much smaller), which leaves me with two theories.

 

One, Cable Town used to be much bigger but sections of it kept falling to darkness until only the section that became the Land of Departure was left.

 

Two, they used the design for Cable Town for the Land of Departure and changed the name.

 

Or heck, maybe it's just a huge coincidence.

for all we know cable town is the final world

It's maybe possible they dropped it (they did say some original worlds will only appear in cut scenes too, so maybe it's not playable?). But I do think since they mentioned it, it should be playable. Maybe they have not talked about it much because of spoilers? Or it might just be because they have been focusing on the worlds that have been revealed (mostly Disney worlds). Heck, we know about Big Hero Six since 2015 and have only just now seen anything from it. So it might be one of the last worlds or something. It might pop up in a future trailer.

I just find the whole situation odd. At least BH6 was announced publicly and we did get a reason why we didn't see anything for so long. With this, it's only been seen at a private event and nothing since, that's the difference between BH6 and this.
