New Ratatouille-themed Keyblade confirmed for Kingdom Hearts III

Amidst the plethora of new reveals in the Kingdom Hearts III Final Battle trailer, a new Keyblade was featured briefly in one of the trailer's gameplay segments. This currently-unnamed Keyblade is themed around Pixar's Ratatouille, featuring both French architecture and cooking motifs in its design. Its transformation, Frying Pan, was also revealed, and appears to use Speed Form for its basic moveset. The Keyblade will take the form of a shield, and will incorporate the Eiffel Tower into the animations of certain attacks and form changes.
Though it is not confirmed, it is very likely that this new Keyblade is a reward that will be obtained from the cooking minigame which features Ratatouille's protagonist, Remy.
You can view screenshots of this new Keyblade below.
Additionally, the Final Battle trailer which features this new Keyblade can be viewed below.
How many of you just can't wait to whack some Heartless with a giant frying pan? (We're definitely raising our hands for this one!)

New original world, Scala ad Caelum, revealed in Kingdom Hearts III Final Battle trailer

In the new Final Battle trailer for Kingdom Hearts III, a new world was revealed during the last scene. Master Xehanort refers to this world as “Scala ad Caelum”, which roughly translates to “ladder to heaven” or “stairway to heaven”.This world used to be a seat of power for the Keyblade wielders. Xehanort states that he and his other selves are able to “be one” in this new world.
This world, previously referred to as "Cable Town", was included in an exclusive piece of Kingdom Hearts III footage, which was shown only to the attendees of the Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX launch events in Burbank, CA and London, UK in December of 2014.
You can watch the new Kingdom Hearts III Final Battle trailer below!

Addressing Kingdom Hearts III leaks: KH13's spoiler policy

Today on December 15, 2018, leaks surfaced from an illegal retail copy of Kingdom Hearts III. Video and screenshots of said retail copy have been posted online.
We found evidence that revealed that one man stole one or more copies (reportedly, at least 30) of the English version of Kingdom Hearts III for Xbox One. The man seems to have obtained the copies using connections he has with an employee of a company in charge of printing/packaging Kingdom Hearts III for Xbox One. He has since tried to sell his copies, uploading some very short game footage to prove the copies were legitimate. The seller claimed he has sold over ten copies.
Due to ethical and copyright issues, we will not report on any Kingdom Hearts III content coming from unofficial sources such as these leaked and illegally sold copies. We will not post any pictures, audio, video, or information that fit this criterion.
We will not share the name or location of the perpetrator, whom we have reported to Square Enix. We will not share information about the buyers or social media accounts posting leaks on our articles. You can, however, find tips and advice on avoiding spoilers on the #how-to-avoid-spoilers on our Discord server, including accounts you can mute/block/avoid.
UPDATE: Tetsuya Nomura has released a statement about the leak. You can read the statement here.
We have created a Kingdom Hearts III Spoilers subforum where fans can discuss these leaks without spoiling the game for others.
 
KH13.com's spoiler policy on Kingdom Hearts III allows discussion on publicly announced content (eg. trailers, interviews, promotional pictures, etc.); however, leaks are to be discussed in the Spoilers subforum only. Avatars, statuses, and thread titles must not contain spoilers. We may be revising our Kingdom Hearts III spoiler policy in the future, according to future content releases by Square Enix and Disney.
KH13.com’s Discord is to be absolutely spoiler-free. No discussion on the leaks is allowed, and any post suspected to be spreading these leaks will be removed at once.
We would also like to say to fans to please be extra careful on social media, especially comment sections. Thumbnails, titles, autoplay, recommended videos, and comments on Youtube can be especially dangerous for those that are trying to avoid spoilers.
We will be monitoring KH13.com and its Discord extensively to prevent and stop the spread of leaks.
We hope that fans understand our policy and respect the work done so far by the game's developing team by not trying to access the leaks nor divulging them where they aren't warranted.
 
Thank you for your cooperation.
Stay safe!
