"Although it is a tentative name, we have included "3D" in the new Kingdom Hearts game title. It also includes "3", which implies that this may be the third iteration of Kingdom Hearts. You will be able to see what kind of game it'll be like from this tentative name. With the encounters, and the contacts with others, as the game's theme; you will grow with the character, with the characters in the game. But it's not Sora with whom you are familiar with, this time. You will realize growth by the effects of someone else. It's a unique, or even a bit of a strange system that we are trying to build this time. There are limits on the things we can do in the universe of Kingdom Hearts. For the things we cannot do, we'd like to try them in other software. Starting from Kingdom Hearts, I would like to work on several titles for Nintendo 3DS."

- After Re:coded, in 2012, it will be the 10th anniversary of Kingdom Hearts. Nomura would like to celebrate in some way.
- However, Kingdom Hearts III will still not be out at this time.
- Birth by Sleep Final Mix will not match KH2 Final Mix+ in volume.

For any sequel of the mainstream storyline of the Kingdom Hearts series, that would be Kingdom Hearts III. But the problem is that the opportunity of developing the sequel is not currently [possible]. The team is busy, I am busy. I’m thinking about what’s going to be next after Kingdom Hearts II, the future that is Kingdom Hearts III. Time has nearly come to [work on] that concept. Yes it might be possible. It is my desire to develop the next Kingdom Hearts on the existing platform, but the problem with a new console is that it has new technical requirements… So, yes, I’m willing to create something on the existing console because when we aim for another non-existing future console, the release of the title will be far in the future. That’s my concern.
Lastly, Nomura stated that he often has to “sacrifice my private time, my marriage, my family time” to stay on top of all his current projects. Regarding the future of Kingdom Hearts, all of this means that Kingdom Hearts III will soon be in the concept stage.

This is an action role-playing game in which players control a character named Sora, who must navigate a series of virtual fantasy worlds to decipher a hidden message. Players mostly use magic spells and a large key-shaped sword to strike and slash at creatures and classic Disney villains (e.g., Maleficent, Hades, Jafar). Some levels allow players to engage in top-down turn-based battles or traverse through side-scrolling levels while firing magic spells at waves of flying enemy creatures. Characters react to damage by grunting/crying out in pain or bursting into small orbs.

- Out of the new additions, the biggest is probably the boss battle with the person wearing an Organization coat from the North American version. The true nature of this battle can’t be revealed yet.
- Besides, compared to the Final Mixes up until now, there aren’t as many added elements so a number of additional bosses were added.
- The armored character from the end of the Tokyo Game Show trailer can be fought in the Mirage Arena. What his existence is, if you saw his name it’d be easy to understand. He’s even stronger than the man in the Organization coat.
- You can fight the armored character, though it’s very difficult. When Director Nomura played against it, he lost every time.
- It can be challenged playing one-player, but its strength is even greater than the man in the Organization coat. During development, it was called the strongest enemy of all the additional bosses.
- Among other additions, they include the choice to play on the most difficult Critical Mode, Megaflare is weakened, and the facial models of young Sora, Riku, and Kairi have been upgraded to higher quality models.
- Also the Secret Episode was added. As for the additional Secret movie, it’s still secret. The contents are being prepared. The requirements to see the new Secret movie are simple. - At first we were thinking that the path crossing system areas would pile up to 100 levels, but now it seems something good happens when 100 levels are cleared.
- There are 800 Avatar Kingdom parts, including rare items and items that can be redistributed in the path crossing areas.
- The synthesis system has been made easier to understand and a help menu was added.
- You need to acquire 20 trophies in order to see the Secret addition. It seems the secret scene will be a short cutscene, but the conversation is very important.
- The next title is Kingdom Hearts 3D. The story takes place after Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded. Now that Re:Coded is over the Osaka team is meeting up and beginning development.
