PlayStation Access, which is the official YouTube channel for PlayStation UK, is at EGX 2016 in Birmingham, England, currently streaming various demos that are available for attendees to try out. Among the playable demos at EGX 2016 is Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, with playable booths for Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD & Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A Fragmentary Passage-. PlayStation Access will be providing direct gameplay from the playable demo, which is the first time we've received direct footage of the demo since Square Enix uploaded a snippet of gameplay at E3 2016. We'll be re-uploading the direct KH2.8 gameplay footage by PlayStation Access from EGX 2016 soon, this time in 1080p, as soon as it's available. Stay tuned! KH13 is also at EGX this year, with Aquaberry representing us at the event. We have played the demo once again, but it seems to be the same as the one we played at E3 2016; it does not seem to have been revised. Check out the gallery below for a view of the Kingdom Hearts 2.8 booth!
