Square Enix has announced their line-up for Gamescom 2014, and included in this is Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX. The game is now confirmed to appear at the event, which starts on August 13 and runs until August 18, 2014. It's unknown if there will be a new trailer or playable demo at the event, but the latter is likely. Here is Square Enix's press release about the game's appearance there, thanks to JehutyRunner on NeoGAF:
 
Update: Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX has been nominated for Best Role Playing Game at Gamescom 2014.
Square Enix have updated the Kingdom Hearts Re:coded section of the official Japanese website for Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX. This update includes the previously released group of HD Cinematic Story Videos screenshots from HD 2.5 ReMIX, now in HD 720p. All of these screenshots can be seen below, in our gallery.
 


 
The update also includes some small details about the HD Cinematic Story Videos, some old, some new. We have translated these for you below, and bolded the newly announced details.
 
- The Re:coded HD Cinematic Story Videos will contain about 1 hour of cutscenes that were in the original Kingdom Hearts Re:coded on the Nintendo DS, and 2 hours of new material.
- A "character encyclopedia" is available if you want to learn more about the story.
- A custom PS3 theme will be unlocked after watching!
- Trophies will be earnt for watching!
Something that the original Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II have in common is that they are the only games in the Kingdom Hearts series to receive dubbed localizations for languages other than Japanese and English. Both games were officially released with German and French voices in their home countries, with Kingdom Hearts II also receiving a release with Spanish voices. Since then, all Kingdom Hearts titles have only released with English voice acting in Europe.
 
A group named DisneyCentral.de have created a petition to try and make a change to this, aiming to convince Square Enix to releases patches for Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX and Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX with the European dubbed voices from Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II included, and more importantly, for Kingdom Hearts III to receive a full dubbed European localization, due to its status as a highly-anticipated blockbuster title.
 
Square Enix Germany have responded to this petition, and thanks to the team at DisneyCentral.de, we have this in English for you below:
Hey everyone. KH13.com will be running a competition to give away two free pre-orders for the English version of Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX! Entering the competition is simple. For a chance to win the 1st copy of the game, you must make posts on our forum. The more you post, the better the chance you have of winning! Here's the exact procedure:
 
 




1. At the end of each day, everyone in the top 10 of the the list of the day's top posters will receive 1 entry ticket in the competition.
 
2. You can receive many tickets in the competition! If you're on the top posters list on multiple days, then you will receive multiple entries in the competition. We'll keep a detailed list of entries here. Remember, the more days you appear on the list, the higher your chance of winning! Also, please be aware that the Roleplaying, Forum Games and Random forums are not included, and that we will disqualify anyone who makes "spammy" posts.
 
3. Out of these 60 tickets, 1 person will be randomly selected as the winner of the 1st HD 2.5 ReMIX pre-order!
 
 




1. For the 2nd copy of the game, you must follow us on our Facebook or Twitter, and share our post about this article. As long as you do one of the two following things (or both, which will double your chances of winning), then you'll be in the running to win!
 
- Like us on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/kh13com) and share this post (share publicly so we can see it)
- Follow us on Twitter (https://twitter.com/KH13com) and retweet this post
 
2. Out of everyone who does this, we'll randomly select 1 person as the winner of the 2nd HD 2.5 ReMIX pre-order! The competition will be much more tight here (we're expecting over 1000 people to enter this way), so we recommend that people also try their best to enter the first competition as well (where your chances are much greater, due to only 60 tickets being available in total). Good luck!

Kingdom Hearts χ[chi] is celebrating their 1st anniversary, and they are treating the players with new events, cards and even an autographed postcard by Tetsuya Nomura himself. To be awarded one of the autographed postcards, a Hall of Fame ranking was created for the players. The lucky winners of these rare postcards will be the ones who ranked 1st place in different categories like most Lux (light points) collected, most raid bosses defeated, and most treasure chests opened, among others categories.
 
If you started playing Kingdom Hearts χ[chi] in the past but then stopped for any given reason, right now is the time to come back, as the website is also doing a comeback campaign. Any players that have not logged in for over a month and log in during the 1st Anniversary events will be able to obtain many free items like new cards, potions, ether, and Moogle medals (these are coins used in the game to buy other items).
 
To help with the celebrations, Donald and Goofy have appeared for the first time in Kingdom Hearts χ[chi]. They can be found in a special area of Daybreak Town. Our favorite sidekicks arrived here and now need our help gathering gummi pieces that can be obtained by defeating certain heartless in the game. The gathered gummi pieces can also be exchanged for new cards and items at the Moogle Trade. Among the things you can buy with your gummi blocks are new sets of clothes that are themed after our favorite gummi ship engineers, Chip and Dale.
 
Another special treat for players was the release of the 1st Anniversary Premium boxes. These can only be purchased with real money, each being 10,000 yen (approximately US$98.20). They are filled with great items, but the main attraction is a special attack card that commemorates the game's 1st Anniversary and comes with a multiplier boost of x5 in its attack and defense points.
 
Lastly, the game is also awarding new cards to everyone who logs in every week during the 1st Anniversary events and offers a x2 multiplier on experience gained from fighting enemies and card synthesis. These events and celebrations will end once the maintenance on August 14th starts.
Here is Nomura's postcard, as well as some other images released to promote the event:
