SQEX BRIDGE updated today with the latest development team report for Kingdom Hearts χ[chi], detailing a tremendous update over the course of December and January. With new worlds, stronger Keyblades, incredible enemies and upcoming seasonal events, you certainly won't want to miss this!

Of course, there is the matter of the message at the end of the report. 

Several months ago, Series Director Tetsuya Nomura revealed that Kingdom Hearts χ[chi] would soon receive a new content update that would lead into the illustrious KINGDOM HEARTS III. There's been little information since that announcement until today, when Nomura finally spoke up again. He speaks of a mysterious passage within the Foreteller's Script that contains an important fact that leads into the conclusion of the Xehanort Saga

In Kingdom Hearts, everything connects to the main storyline. Because of this, he urges players not to overlook Kingdom Hearts χ[chi] and to please look forward to the upcoming expansion.

You can read the full translation below, thanks to Zephyr:

Thank you for your patience.
Finally, I will begin to talk about the story of KINGDOM HEARTS χ.
There is a passage written in the Foretellers’ Script.
It is an important fact that leads to KINGDOM HEARTS III.

Everyone can be a character in this story and be happy to realize you can become a part of it.

In this KINGDOM HEARTS, everything is connected to the main storyline.
To all fans that have been playing the series, do not overlook this expansion in the story and please look forward to it.

Also, even though we have announced plenty of additional features, there is still more to expect.

We understand that many of you may be dissatisfied but there will be many updates that will enhance the game and the staff is committed to working everyday.

Thank you in advance.

 

So, I’ll be waiting for you in Daybreak Town.

KINGDOM HEARTS series director Tetsuya Nomura

Re: KH ?[chi] Development Team Report #2 - Leading to KINGDOM HEARTS 3

I was going to remark on being able to explore Dawnbreak Town and Olympus, or about how cool Starlight is going to look in it's evolved form, but then I saw the ridiculous damge done to that Behemoth and passed out from shock. o_O;
Thanks Sign! This was a neat read.

Enter worlds with party members visible next to you, Ah it's starting to be an actual MMO, yes gotta love being with your party members, if they add that, you think they'll add some missions for like mini sub bosses in worlds as regular missions or story missions which needs a # of party members to fight it, eh, sorry i got too excited. ah yes, Thank you for this wonderful information. :)

Re: KH ?[chi] Development Team Report #2 - Leading to KINGDOM HEARTS 3

Daybreak Town is going to be a legit world rather than just a hub? Yes <3 I'm hoping we see what became of it in KH3.

The Foretellers connecting the games together...I can't wait to see what the script will say.

Re: KH ?[chi] Development Team Report #2 - Leading to KINGDOM HEARTS 3

Has there already been a story in this game? Haven't been following the updates on this game so.

Anyways, Daybreak Town kinda looks like a world I wanna see in a main game, like the look of it! And the story-element leading into KH 3 sounds intriguing. I'll be keeping my eye on this mysterious "fact".

Since the start! Mainly the five factions (Unicornis, Vulpes, Ursus, Leopardus, and Anguis) are gathering "lux" to fight against the Darkness. The concept is that the other teams are fighting against the Darkness for their own selfish reasons and you have to compete against them to save the world(s).

The Foretellers lead each faction, and then there is Chirishii (who is a little asshole) who helps out all of the Keyblade wielders on their quest to fight against the Darkness.

Each world has its own centralized story too...

A part of me really hopes that Daybreak Town might appear in KH3 now that we actually will fully get to explore it ^_^ I mean, given Chi connects to KH3 (we don't know exactly how yet) perhaps if Daybreak exists in the realm of all the worlds with these other Disney worlds, we'll get to visit it in KH3 (and see Chriishii in glorious 3D!!!).

Praise the lord, he finally said it.

And the sad part is that I doubt anyone in the casual fanbase will actually listen to that -__-

On a side note though, given they are making so much progress with this, if they were going to localize the game (hypothetically) do you guys think it would be soon? I know you can't answer that question since nobody knows but I just want it to be localized so badly that I'm willing to take anyone saying "soon" as a good answer lol

Ah yes, I've known about that. Didn't know that the worlds had their own stories, though.

Also, something I just noticed now... Chirishii

Seeing how it appears to have some relevance to the main-canon, I'd say we should get it in one way or another. Would defeat the purpose of the HD remixes and all that "getting everyone ready for the final episode"-talk.

Alas that I have no computer! D; It looks pretty interesting. I'll keep an eye open for this Foreteller info pertaining to KH3, wonder what it could be?

"Soon" wouldn't surprise me, but "December," the date they say the story will be expanded in the current version... ugh. I was hoping the game would get this super-special info alongside the localization. Hopefully it's part of the permanent plot and not a one-time event... In fact, let's just hope all important information is part of the permanent plot and not one-time events. So far they've only given us one story segment attached to a temporary event. If they never do it again, I'll be nothing but grateful.

Really, it wouldn't be too hard to localize chi-the-flash-application because it doesn't have that much text in it compared to larger games we're used to hearing about in localization. That could maybe be done by December. But the hard part would be the real-world stuff, setting up the business side and the support side and the login side, rebalancing the game for all the new players playing in the Japanese night... who knows how long that would take. Hope they do it, of course. Hope it works out for them, too.

I would love to see Daybreak Town, Chirishii, or any of the foretellers appear in Kingdom Hearts III.

CoM was not that bad. And no, you don't have to play if you don't want to. Social browser games aren't for everybody.

We'll probably make a report on the message and whatever else when it surfaces. If you don't want to or are unable to play, you should have nothing to worry about.
