Hmm... What are the chances of a new trailer dropping at Japan Expo 2018? It'd be really ideal to drop another trailer in my opinion, especially now because SE are in full marketing mode for KH3! Fingers crossed there is a new trailer and it shows Big Hero 6 gameplay!

 

[Zettaflare]

I'm not sure if we will get a trailer but I'd settle for any new content such as new summons or screenshots.

Very low.

I've been saying for months that this demo will be going around to practically every convention, giving people many opportunities to go hands on, but trailers will be more sparse. I think Gamescom has a good chance for having the next trailer, but I wouldn't be surprised if they only had the demo at that convention and saved the trailer for TGS.

I gotta ask what exactly is the point of me posting info hours before, and yet yall create "official threads" with literally the same information? Can't you just add on to the thread that was already created?

It makes me not want to find stuff for this site anymore. There's no point to trying to find info for you guys.

Okay, fair enough. I was hoping for a new trailer, but I'm not opposed to a few new screenshots of different things. And TGS is only in September, so it's not far.

Our CMS news system automatically makes threads. We can't have articles without a thread. Deleting the thread causes issues with the article. We have been very upfront about this.

That's why we encourage everyone to message a staff member, so people can get the credit they deserve rather than someone not knowing the information has been posted.

Edit: I've given you credit in the article

If you find new information you can just tell the mods through PM. They will likely credit you in the official thread.

I'm trying to follow these demos closely for balance and quality changes. Faster combos please?

 

[Leaferian]

Is anyone from KHI going to this event? I would imagine you guys can't go to everything obviously, I'm just curious to see if we'll have firsthand impressions of any further improvements.

Seems to be the likely case, and IMO it makes sense to have the next trailer at a major event likes Gamescom or Tokyo Game Show.

I highly doubt we'll get anything from Anime Expo (AX) or the Sydney Orchestra event in July since it has been 2-3 weeks since we've gotten three KH3 trailers already from E3, so it makes sense to have them reveal the next trailer at a BIG Event. Although I wouldn't be surprised if a trailer was shown next month at either one of these events, but I'm not expecting much tbh.

Seems we may be getting around 3-4 more trailers for Kingdom Hearts III before the game comes out in January 2019 and these are the expectations on the Following Events that will showcase the remaining trailers:

1. Gamescom (August) - *Big Hero 6 trailer and/or a New Disney world
2. Tokyo Game Show (September) - *Big Hero 6 trailer and/or a New Disney world
3. Paris Game Show (October) - Intro of KH3 trailer with Don't Think Twice in English.
4. Jump Festa 2019 (December) - The Launch Trailer

*Big Hero 6's reveal would go either way so I'm expecting either Gamescom or Tokyo Game Show as the likely place to reveal the world for the next trailer.

Wake me up when D23 drops Big Hero 6 trailer

The US D23 event is biennial (every two years) so don't count on it. More than likely we'll see the Big Hero 6 trailer at either Gamescom or Tokyo Game Show.

Yeah, I feel like they need to increase the number of heartless for the game's new scale and faster combos because it'll be a chore to kill anything if it keeps that slow floaty-ness that 0.2 had.

I agree with this i mean so Far We've gotten 7 of the Disney Worlds announced so Far so at least Two more should be announced before the Game is out.

 

[SoraForeverKH]

Oh man! We're getting the big hero 6 world trailer and more news, it has to be what's coming. Nomura already sort of mentioned we would see some of that world probably in the next update! Alrigh! I can' wait!!! Shame I will be at work during most of this though, my fellow employees will think I've gone nuts, maybe save for a couple of them who also happen to be fans of somewhat. ^^

 

[UltimaXOmega]

Yet no demo at PAX. ._. Wth Square.

 

[Recon]

Will it be the same demo from events like E3 and the premiere?
