So i was wondering, after all these games we got to play as almost every main character, KH2 we got mickey, and so on, Does anyone think that Kairi will play a big enough part in KH3 to be playable, because she's the only main protagonist we still haven't played as, and i think it would be interesting to play her ATLEAST in the tutorial you know? So what does everyone else think?

I think she will be somehow playable. She's now has a more important role on the series, so yeah.

 

Maybe she can be one of the selected characters or a tuturial one like you said or maybe a character that'll help Sora when he's in need.

Yes!

Tutorial,Final Battle, and Multiplayer. That's really the only time I WANT to play as her but if they make me it's whatever

She should be playable since it is the only game to have the chance of playing as her. It fits to have her in tutorial and I would also like to see her in open roam but in a fitting way.

I think it would be a trollish move to have that secret ending in KH3D and NOT have Kairi playable.

As has been said before, Kairi would probably be best as the "tutorial" character, like Roxas in KH2. I think it would be awesome to have a little bit of control of her in the final battle like we did with Riku, in KH2.

I really don't think playing as Mickey from Kingdom Hearts 2 doesn't count. I mean come on we only get to play as Mickey only when Sora gets knock out. Mickey was not really a playable character in Kingdom Hearts 2.

I don't think they will do it. I think if they were not focusing on 1 story with Sora and the gang they would have told us by now but a secret little side story kinda like Reverse/Rebirth could be possible.

Maybe playing as kairi would give her some kind of development. None of us really know what is to come with her. And so maybe yeah. I guess it will be neat playing as another female character. But I wouldn't get my hopes up.

Oh man, I totally agree with rikunobodyxiii, she would make an excellent character to start off with and remind us of the basics in KH3!

I can see her being playable during a tutorial, but it would be great to play as Kairi at different points throughout the rest of the game

I think they might go off on their separate ways much like what happened in BBS, but we can choose who to play freely maybe? 

 

Maybe some areas will be blocked until characters clear certain levels or something? Then they can meet up at those Original worlds and then rinse and repeat. 

It would be cool if Sora, Riku, and Kairi were all playable.

 

All 7 Lights should be playable in some form. Having a main story where you only control Sora and having optional missions with other characters (after you've finished a world, for instance) would be cool. The missions could be in unique worlds or have new sections of familiar worlds but I don't think you should be forced to control these characters, unless something happens to Sora. Sora is still the main player character so controlling other characters should be temporary. A party system where you can control every member of your team would be cool, so if Sora, Kairi, and Riku were fighting together you could switch characters and control whoever you like, as long as they are in your party.  Hopefully Nomura and the team surprise us and have an awesome party system.

I agree, It'd be interesting. Or if not that atleast a moment were they're in a party.

Well , Kairi still has training to do . So I guess it'd be good if we actually get to play as her in a "training mode" .

I don't think there's any way where she WOULDN'T be playable. The last full console game was on the PS2. Kingdom Hearts 3 is going to be on the PS4 so that's like a bajillion times the power capabilities. Plus Nomura is adding larger arenas and a freeform kinda thing.

 

What I'm getting at is not only will Kairi be playable but I think her along with Terra, Aqua, Ventus etc will ALL be playable at some point even if it's not as major parts. You need more characters to fill the giant arena.

 

Having only Sora and Riku as playable is like having a 60 mansions attached together but having one person living in them.

She will be playable during the Tutorial most likely. I dont know about the rest of the game

YES!!!!!!!!!!! I WANNA PLAY AS KAIRI!!!!!! EVEN IF IT'S JUST THE TUTORIAL!!!!!!

I sort've hope she has her own game that takes place after KHIII but before KHIV if that happens.

I would like her to be in the tutorial together with Lea.

They can pull a BBS, but I rather not play separate stories... To much work. Maybe you can select a character at the mysterious tower and like venture out as Sora, Riku or Kairi. And like they all have their own separate story in each would. And then you go back to select another character.

She may be playable but how and in what way remains to be seen.

why do you want here playable anyway i mean i don't hate her but i mean come on is there a legitimate reason to want to play as her? of course if you want to play as her to play as her i can understand that.
