Definitely Back Cover. I mean, the KHX saga was the eighth game in the series, with 0.2 technically being the ninth. On top of that, 0.2 is literally the prologue to KH3, so it makes sense that it should come last (or second, I suppose. DDD is last, because I've already played it a few times).

When you consider the fact that heart-shaped souls are a regular sight, it really does call into question the innocent depiction of war and violence, doesn't it? I actually didn't catch that. Good eye! Truly, Disney is corrupting our youth. Where's all that family-friendly nature we grew up with? I want a refund!

The Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB) has rated Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX. The game is rated E10+, for Fantasy Violence, Mild Blood, and Use of Alcohol. However, Mild Blood and Use of Alcohol only apply to the Port Royal segments of Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix HD, so they are not very prevalent. You can view a screenshot of their rating and full summary below. Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX will release on March 9th, 2017 in Japan, March 28th, 2017 in North America, and March 30th, 2017 in Europe for the PlayStation 4. Click here to view the article

In the week before the release of Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, Square Enix has decided to kick off the celebrations with the return of the HD Aqua medal! Starting January 20th at 12 AM (PT), players can participate in an event to earn several copies of the HD Aqua medal. Previously, one copy of this medal had been distributed to all players, when the E3 2016 trailer for Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue made its debut. Now, several months later, players will finally be able to unlock the Special Attack Bonus for this long-dormant medal. How exciting! Will you be participating in the HD Aqua event? Let us know in the comments!

Not gonna lie, if I had the spare jewels and didn't have an iKairi from her first EMC, I'd totally jump on this. 25,000 for a guaranteed one is okay, and like I said during its NA debut, this medal is still a game-changer, even in JP.

In their most recent issue, Dengeki PlayStation included a 10-page feature on Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue. The spread features screenshots and several game tips regarding both Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD and Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A Fragmentary Passage-. A brief promo for Sora's inclusion as a Champion Summon in World of Final Fantasy was also included. Additionally, Dengeki PlayStation interviewed Kingdom Hearts series composer Yoko Shimomura, speaking with her about her involvement in the game's soundtrack. Translations for the spread and interview will be posted as soon as they are available. Images from the spread and interview can be found below. Update#1 The interview has now been translated thanks to @goldpanner. You can view it below. Click here to view the article

Apparently a compilation which includes Dream Drop is worse than Dream Drop by itself. I didn't know Back Cover and 0.2 BBS were so bad. A game is far more than its mechanics. They could hate the fact that the Disney worlds don't usually contribute to the overall story, and thus perhaps feel meaningless. They could hate the shift in story tone from KH1/KH CoM. They could hate the visual design or the sound design. There are plenty of reasons why one individual might find KH2 to be less appealing than its fellow entries, even if many of us disagree. (For the record, BBS is better than KH2 for me, but only barely, and solely due to the story. Would be much higher if the Command Deck were ironed out, but the concept is at least appealing.)

Actually, IGN has been very positive toward KH since its inception, despite...certain contributors' comments and their collection of "experts". KH2 even got the lowest score in the series thus far, a 7.6/10. Here's the full breakdown: KH1 - 9/10 KH CoM - 8/10 KH2 - 7.6/10 KH Re:CoM - 8.4/10 KH 358/2 Days - 8/10 KH BBS - 8.5/10 KH Re:coded - 8/10 KH DDD - 8.5/10 KH 1.5 - 8.5/10 KH 2.5 - 8.4/10 (The individual Final Mix games, KH coded, KHX, and KHUX were not reviewed by IGN. Scores compiled from Metacritic for ease of access.) And yes, I'm a bit shocked by that as well.
