Not even a week after the Japanese release of Kingdom Hearts -HD 1.5 ReMIX- and we already have some news for the next future game for the series, KINGDOM HEARTS χ[chi].

It appears that the Beta invites for KINGDOM HEARTS χ[chi], accessible through Yahoo Games, have started to be emailed to various recipients. As the beta appears to begin on the 22nd of March, hopefully we will hear some more of the new features in the game soon!

Click to enlarge!

The KINGDOM HEARTS χ[chi] website also recieved a small update this evening, saying that the game is "coming soon". How soon is unknown at this point, but hopefully we will get to see what glory the game holds! You can view the games terms and agreements here, and the requirements here!

Edit: Thanks to forum member Roxas72 and translator Goldpanner, we have translations of the Beta email!

We would to thank you on this occasion for applying to participate in the KINGDOM HEARTS χ[chi] Closed Beta Test. As a result of a strictly impartial lottery, you have been selected to be a tester in the Closed Beta Test (hereon CBT) scheduled to commence at 3pm on the 22nd March (Fri). Congratulations!!


Please access the official KINGDOM HEARTS χ[chi] website () and log in with the Yahoo!Japan ID and password that you registered in your application.


The CBT is scheduled to run from 3pm on the 22nd March (Fri) until 3pm on the 25th March. 


The idea of this CBT is to have you play a section of KINGDOM HEARTS χ[chi] for us in advance. We truly hope that you enjoy it, and we would be very happy if we could receive your opinions after you have played.


<Main Content of the CBT Play>


First, you are to create your own avatar, and assemble a team of up to a maximum of 30 people. (The composition of teams will be assigned automatically.) For the duration of the CBT, you will be competing with assigned opposing teams to obtain and pool fragments of light called Lux. Every day there will be a tally to determine which team has pooled the most Lux, and the victors will be awarded a prize.


*Points*
- Collect raw materials from the field ⇒ use to enhance your Keyblade.
- Battle enemies ⇒ experience points (necessary to level up), potentially obtain cards, Lux etc.
- Collect cards from treasure chests ⇒ obtain cards that will increase hit points during battle.
- Card Draw ⇒ obtain cards necessary to execute attacks in battle.
- Boss Raid ⇒ co-operate with your team to defeat bosses for a chance to earn large quantities of Lux.


Set your sights on making use of card synthesis and Keyblade enhancement in order to gather even more Lux to be victorious!


<For future scheduling and up-to-date information>


The KINGDOM HEARTS χ[chi] official website () and KINGDOM HEARTS χ[chi] official twitter (https://twitter.com/_KINGDOMHEARTS) will be updated as necessary.

Depends on what the terms and conditions say. They might not want people taking screenshots or videos of the game in action, and we should respect that.
However, if they're fine with it then it's fair game I guess.

That's why I added the "If Possible" next to it. I dunno, otherwise I'll just record it for later.

EDIT: Just tried going onto the beta, apparently there is maintenance going on and no time for the beta to be back up has been announced yet.

EDIT2: Almost tried getting on 3 times now, always end up with an error.

I haven't watched the livestream any yet, so I don't know if it came up. But I just wanted to say for anyone in it that after you change cards in your deck, you need to click the rightmost option to confirm it. I was expecting a big confirm button or something, and it took me like a half hour to figure out. So I wanted to save everyone else any headaches on it. ^_^

Livestreaming gameplay here, Dwarf Woodlands.


AHHHHH!!! WATCHING IT NOW (in case SE takes it down if you aren't allowed to). THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH, 30 seconds into it, Dearly Beloved starts playing and I'm going nuts right now!

EDIT: After watching the full hour and rewinding a bit on some parts to try and see if I would have understood it with my extremely basic Japanese, I think it's safe to say that I could have made my way around the game understanding most of it, so I'm sad I didn't enter, but I nonetheless still would have taken forever haha (it really took me 7 seconds to realize it said "Potion" imagine how long it was going to take me to use the menu lol

Having said that I do have a few comments with questions (questions will be in bold to make it easier to read):

- It's safe to assume the lily-pads we saw are not from a new PatF world, but from Dwarf Woodlands in the Dark Forest.

- Why do you along with nearly every other player I saw resemble Leon's clothing? Was that the only clothing option in the Beta?

- Were the loading times decent? I can't help but notice that the loading time between the Dark Forest and the Dwarves cottage took 1 minute and 18 seconds to load one section of the world O_o

- How does the gameplay work exactly with the cards? When I was watching the game, it seems like you essentially make a deck of cards (with Sora being OP haha) and then it randomly gives you 3 to attack with? Do you have to have a minimum of a certain amount of cost in your deck? The reason I ask is because why couldn't you essentially make a deck of just Sora and then constantly be dealing 1000 damage at least, eliminating any beginner heartless with ease?

- Do you ever see other players in the worlds as well or do you only see them when you work together on a tough boss?

- I love how the symbol for Wonderland when you change location is the Cheshire's face

- I really hope they eventually make these cards into real TCG cards like the KH TCG, even though it isn't new art, I really like them :)

- What exactly was the menu with the Moogle in the bottom right for? With all the 3 tabs on the right, and how did you get like 7 cards that time when you went to that screen around the 36-minute mark?

- At 42-minutes you went to a screen where on the right there was list of all the players, what was that whole screen about with the countdown and list of players and blue/red bar at the top?

- How did the battle with Darkside work? Were some people attacking him and that's why his life was already lower? Also, how are you supposed to fight him if one hit takes out all of your life and then some. I understand you work as a team, but doesn't he completely destroy everyone?

- What was the screen that had the "Base Card" on it mean?

Thank you so much Ventus, it was really cool to honestly watch a whole hour of the game O_o

Was that the only clothing option in the Beta?


No, there were other outfits but this was the one I liked most.



Were the loading times decent?


Honestly, considering this is a PC Browser game and not a console game, the loading times are decent enough, especially what with all the content featured in the video coming from a server in Japan. Additionally, I was at 100mb/s speed so other people with slower internet might not be as fortunate to wait a minute while in the beta, then again, much of the players were in Japan so it would be Lightning fast for them.



How does the gameplay work exactly with the cards?


Well, you have 4 categories in the cards: Physical, Speed, Magic and Assist. Not sure how Assist cards work, but Speed is things like Sliding Dash, Blitz, etc. with Physical being Fire Raid, Thunder Raid, all that and Magic being Thunder, Fire, all that goodness. You basically make a deck of 9 cards, they all have a rating for their power and the cards all control your HP. When I began, I had 1000HP, but after I added some pretty OP cards, got to 9000HP. And there is a limit for how many cards you can hold total; You have a limit of 100 cards, and so far I've got 61.



Do you ever see other players in the worlds as well or do you only see them when you work together on a tough boss?


So far, I have not seen a single other player except in the hub. Additionally, it seems boss fights are one-on-one? I'm not sure, it must be something the team is still working on or I still haven't found out how to do it.



What exactly was the menu with the Moogle in the bottom right for? With all the 3 tabs on the right, and how did you get like 7 cards that time when you went to that screen around the 36-minute mark?


That screen is to exchange Moogle Points (hereon MP), much like Chain of Memories and its remake, into cards used in battle. I got 10 cards because I exchanged 2000MP of my 7000MP to get those 10 cards. You basically have the option of getting just one card, or a stack of 10, of course, you're gonna have to end up discarding/selling/trading your cards due to the limit of 100.



At 42-minutes you went to a screen where on the right there was list of all the players, what was that whole screen about with the countdown and list of players and blue/red bar at the top?


That is the team screen, in the email sent before the beta, they said we would all be in pre-determined teams. That page is just that, it shows you the team, and if there is a boss (to get tons of LUX) and the bar with blue and red shows how much LUX I guess is needed to defeat the other team but the thing is, both teams are #24 so it's either a glitch or a progress bar...



How did the battle with Darkside work?


I'm not sure what the case is with it but the second time I fought it, it was a Lv. 15 and I was Lv. 5 so I thought I might as well try, but I died. So I guess it works in that either everyone needs to contact everyone about the boss and raid it altogether, or each person takes turns in depleting the HP, but of course, the latter would take too much time and the opportunity would go because there is a timer of 15 minutes I believe.



What was the screen that had the "Base Card" on it mean?


It's like how in Final Fantasy XIII, you can dismantle armor and weaponry to get you components, but in this case, it just gets you Munny, the shop is closed at the moment, I'm not sure if it will open in the beta at all but I'm assuming its for the shop. Additionally, this part of the game is really good if you have too many cards and need Potions and Ethers.

EDIT: I am mistaken about the Base Card page, it's similar to Command Melding and the such, you put a base card and put other cards that add to its strength and defense. Additionally, leveling it up to a limit of 50.

There are four outfits for boys and four for girls. Technically two unique designs each, with an alternate color swap. Just to add on, there's only one skin color available right now, two unique sets of eyes and 3 different hairstyles (with 3 colors to choose from) for each gender.

It's honestly the best outfit out of both genders.

Depends on your connection speed, your browser, and all that jazz. Expect lag always, though.

CLICK TO WIN. That simple. But Erry explained it.



- Do you ever see other players in the worlds as well or do you only see them when you work together on a tough boss?



Only in the plaza, boss fights are one-on-one while your team is also attacking it on their own. Um, best example is to play Final Fantasy Airborne Brigade...



- I really hope they eventually make these cards into real TCG cards like the KH TCG, even though it isn't new art, I really like them :)



There was one already, wasn't there xD



- How did the battle with Darkside work? Were some people attacking him and that's why his life was already lower? Also, how are you supposed to fight him if one hit takes out all of your life and then some. I understand you work as a team, but doesn't he completely destroy everyone?



Every 15(?) minutes a new Darkside is summoned to be fought and will have a different level. Your team competes against the other to whittle down it's HP and defeat it. Many different people are attacking it at once, which is why sometimes you can be fighting it one minute then the next it is defeated even though you saw the HP bar being full.

Again, play Airborne Brigade on the iPhone and you'll get a VERY good idea of how this game is playing for the most part. (The card system is closer to Guardian Cross' system, though)

Overall it is like every other social game. But cute.

The game itself is pretty much like FF Airborne Brigade + Guardian Cross.

At least it's really cute and has a bunch of new artwork~

I didn't experience any problems with Agrabah. That's odd though. Does it occur only with Agrabah or with other worlds as well?

Since it wasn't answered above; Assist cards are equipped in a separate tab from the action cards. It's in English, so shouldn't be hard to find. You can equip 5 total, and they don't add to your CP cost, so you can use your strongest right away. They give passive buffs, and their main focus is increasing your maximum HP and Lux income. There's a slot for special abilities, but I haven't seen any with them, so I'm not sure if they're present yet.

As far as Assist cards go, I'd recommend searching Wonderland, as I found a bunch of silver Merlin and Cheshire Cat cards that give great bonuses. You might be inclined to go all Cheshire, as his base stats for both are significantly higher then Merlin's. However while his HP keeps going up as you level him, the Lux kind of patters out. Merlin goes the other way, focusing on Lux over HP. So at high levels they're more unique and Merlin becomes a lot more useful. So if you have 5 silver Cheshire Cats it would be good for low levels, but I'd recommend upgrading one or two Merlin's as well to maximize Lux income.

Also, something else it took me a while to figure out. If you mouse over an ingredient when upgrading your keyblade, it will tell you what world it can be found in.

Even though it looks repetitive, it looks like a lot of fun! It seems they've also thrown in the updated music from HD. For a beta version, this is looking pretty promising imo! :)

a bit of useful info about card fusion.

if you fuse cards with the same attribute (e.g. Sora (red) and Auron (red)) you get bonus Exp from the fusion

if you fuse two cards that are alike. (e.g. Mickey N and Mickey N) you instead get something called a "Limit Cut" which, based on my analysis, increases the maximum level of a card by 5. (there's also a counter when you fuse that goes down every time you perform a limit cut. I have yet to see whether it can go lower than zero)

Vəntus is right. From what I've listened so far, I can tell that the musics played in Wonderland/Agrabah are the ReCoM versions because you can notice by their instrumentations.

In the plaza, it plays the Dearly Beloved Reprise version from KH1.

It has a lot of resemblance to Radiant Garden so I would assume it's Radiant Garden before BBS by thousands of years, additionally, Dearly Beloved that plays is actually the remastered one from KH(FM)HD.

It's a weird blend with Traverse Town, Radiant Garden, and I felt part of it reminded me of Traverse Town (with the various hills the town sits on) and the fountain plaza in the dream Traverse Town.

Thanks for all the answers everyone ^_^ Expect a lot more questions once the game actually comes out and I'm trying to figure out what to do haha

That is the team screen, in the email sent before the beta, they said we would all be in pre-determined teams. That page is just that, it shows you the team, and if there is a boss (to get tons of LUX) and the bar with blue and red shows how much LUX I guess is needed to defeat the other team but the thing is, both teams are #24 so it's either a glitch or a progress bar...


Cool, so you assemble your own teams pretty much? Out of curiosity, who here on KHI plans to seriously play this? I say we make a team!!!! ^_^ I'm curious if you can do voice or text chat in the game with your team members.

Master Spockanort

There was one already, wasn't there xD


There was one lol (602 cards currently exist in English...1 of those I CANNOT FIND!!! AHHHHH!!!!!) But I wish the series continued hence why I want them to now make these cards into a TCG...



Every 15(?) minutes a new Darkside is summoned to be fought and will have a different level. Your team competes against the other to whittle down it's HP and defeat it. Many different people are attacking it at once, which is why sometimes you can be fighting it one minute then the next it is defeated even though you saw the HP bar being full.



Okay this makes a lot of sense because when he first fought Darkside it's HP was less than 1/2 and the second time it was nearly completely full again. I'm curious what other enemies will eventually show up as you get really high level. I'm also curious what the highest level one can attain is so far.

P.S. Ventus, did you see any Disney characters in the worlds? I remember in a promo shot that Alice was standing in Wonderland and I'm curious if you found her or if she only appears at certain times, how does that work? If you did find her, what exactly does she do?

It has a lot of resemblance to Radiant Garden so I would assume it's Radiant Garden before BBS by thousands of years, additionally, Dearly Beloved that plays is actually the remastered one from KH(FM)HD.


Yeah, I assume it was some other world that was new for Chi but it resembled RG a lot with the big castle in the background that doesn't look completely like the castle in RG.

I know you asked Vəntus, but as far as I explored there were no Disney characters around. You get to a certain point where a high leveled Heartless sits and you're can't really pass.

I completely forgot you and Sullenclown are also in the beta!!! YAY! More people to ask questions too :)

Okay, here it goes (these are all questions so bolding isn't needed):

- What levels are all of you? Is there a max level you can reach in the beta?
- Do any of you know if your data from the beta will carry over into the main game once it is up? Just curious ^_^
- What are the "high-level" heartless you guys speak of? Are they all different types of heartless in each of the worlds?
- What awesome cards have you gotten? Anything from any games that aren't KH1?
- Have you figured out a way to defeat Darkside yet?
- What types of missions has the game given you thus far?

I don't know if their is a max. I leveled up to 8 because I was too lazy to wait for my AP to reload and would go on to new things.



- Do any of you know if your data from the beta will carry over into the main game once it is up? Just curious ^_^



I'm almost certain it will. It seems like a waste to let all of these people play and not let them keep their progress and items.



- What are the "high-level" heartless you guys speak of? Are they all different types of heartless in each of the worlds?



Like for example in Dwarf Woodlands there was a level 40 Large Body Heartless and you know unless you had fantastic cards (I did not) and a good level (obviously I didn't) it would kill you.



- What awesome cards have you gotten? Anything from any games that aren't KH1?



Auron was a great surprise. xD There is a Tifa card! Sure there are more.



- Have you figured out a way to defeat Darkside yet?



ATTACK! Use BP and BP restoring items and ATTACK!!!!



- What types of missions has the game given you thus far?



Fight X amount of X type/any Heartless. Meld cards together. Find x amount of materials in x world. Stuff like that xD

Battle Points. You get five and they limit how often you can attack in a campaign. They retore themselves after 45 minutes or so. You get a "first time attack" for free then any time you want to attack after requires using up your BP. You get three choices on how to spend your BP. You can use one and do a regular attack, use 2 and have x2 the attack power, or 3 and and do x4 the attack power.

And a campaign is like when you face off against Darkside, right? Is that why you can't have the same person fighting Darkside over and over and in 45 minutes slowly defeating Darkside single-handedly?

Well, not exactly. If you have BP restoring items (i have a ton of them) you can just use them to keep attacking. You might not beat it, but you can definitely attack it a lot of you have BP restore to spare.

there are times when Darkside's HP is very low. and with the good cards you can actually defeat Darkside single-handedly. XD

EDIT: If you notice while in combat, there are times when you get a critical strike from a card. The reason is that despite the Random Number Generator choosing your cards for you, if the first card is a physical attack, second card a magical attack or the third attack being a speed attack then you get a guaranteed critical strike so it pays to have all three kinds of cards in your deck :)

Personally, I'd value an in-game item over saved data because you can easily get to that point again, but a special item generally is exclusive to you for a while (until down the road they release it as paid DLC or something).

Ahhhhh, I didn't notice that haha xD Also, in terms of damage, how much more damage does an SR or R card do compared to a C card? I'm just curious how VITAL they are in terms of really doing damage :)

P.S. There hasn't been a confirmation when the actual game opens right? Because I plan on going ASAP! ^_^
