Square Enix have lifted the silence on Kingdom Hearts 3 and delivered an epic trailer that gives fans a good look at Mount Olympus.
The trailer also showcased new shotlocks and limit commands, deepening the battle system that was first introduced in Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue earlier this year.
We also got a look at some of the story from the game, as it seems Maleficent and Pete have business with Hades in Olympus. We also saw some more gameplay against the Rock Titan battle, and Sora talking with Xemnas outside of Twilight Town's mansion.
Square Enix released a press release following the reveal of the trailer:
Earlier at the KINGDOM HEARTS Orchestra –World Tour– concert in Los Angeles, SQUARE ENIX® and Disney Interactive dazzled fans with a new KINGDOM HEARTS III gameplay trailer featuring never before seen footage based on Disney’s animated hit, “Hercules,” which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.
In this action-packed trailer, Sora, Donald Duck and Goofy help Hercules battle various forms of Heartless on Mount Olympus through gorgeous visuals and gameplay. Fans will see Sora in a new form, which allows him to perform special powerful solo and joint attacks on his enemies. A new glimpse into the game’s storyline reveals a reunion with Disney villains Hades, Maleficent and Pete as they discuss the location of a mysterious item while Sora is faced with a dilemma in an effort to bring back an old friend.
Another trailer that will debut a brand new world will be at D23 Expo on July 15th.
