Finally the news drought is at an end with a scan featuring Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX! Take a look below at the new screenshots and whatnot while we await translations translations thanks to Goldpanner!

 

Update: Thanks to the lovely Goldpanner, there isn't that much new information to be seen on the scan itself, though we might get more information soon.

Update 2: Goldpanner was able to translate an article from FF Reunion: Saturday's Weekly Jump features a new article about KH HD 1.5 Remix! From the article: "Release: Estimated 2013", "Main characters Sora, Riku and Kairi get a makeover!", "As a HD remaster, the character's expressions are resplendent in high resolution!", and "there's a reward after clearing the game", "New features have been added as part of the PS3 re-imagining"...! We can't wait to find out what sort of things have been added!

The info is pretty generic 'the tale is revived in HD!' 'Riku is a cool guy who is Sora's best friend and rival!' 'Kairi is a bright cheery girl, her and Sora are inseparable!' 'Adventure through Disney worlds!' type advertising phrases.

I can tell you that there is still no set release date other than 'estimated 2013' and the price hasn't been set!

I wonder if they'll add new keyblades, or the ability to fight boss battles again. An all boss tournament in the coliseum would be kinda cool. :O

For me It´ll be fine if they just fix that annoying camera and make the gameplay easier. Remake of Days is actually the one, I´m waiting for. Finally a good reason to buy Playstation 3 x)

If you look to the left, there are new renders of Sora, Riku and Kairi :biggrin:! I think that the official website will be updated after the Jump Festa and that these renderes will be included along with the Jump Festa Trailer :smile:

I wonder what the reward is for completing the game, could be a secret movie for KH2.5 or something else? Though I think Nomura already said there won't be any secret endings... Maybe a trophy? C: [SIZE=2]

D'aww! That new picture of Kairi is so adorable! It reminds me of Naminé in a lot of ways. Actually, they all three look great! I can't wait to see a higher quality image of this!

And I'm getting so many SoKai feels because of the "Sora and Kairi are inseparable line". It reminds me of Days (when Axel tells Roxas and Xion that they're all three inseparable), and CoM. You know? When Sora asks Naminé (when pretty much thinking she's Kairi). "Weren't we inseparable, always together?" I really love the parallels here!

Anyway...

Sora's kawaii is at full force! Shield ye eyes! Serious, though. Look at him in OC. That face is too cute.

A reward? New Game+? A trailer for 2.5? A super special awesome XMB theme?

Main characters Sora, Riku and Kairi get a makeover!



So I just took a nap, and I came here to see if there is anything new regarding the translations.

When I read this, for 2 seconds my mind thought "So we play with Sora, Riku and Kairi and they all get new clothes.... oh wait this is KH1.5 not 3...."

I'm hoping that line regarding the character's expressions in HD means the removal (or at least severe reduction) of the fish faces KH1 was notorious for

I sure hope so.

@Sign does this mean they are completely remade and not taken from DDD?

They've replaced the models themselves with the ones from KH3D, but the renders depicted in the scan to the left are brand new.

Depends on your definition of "makeover."

The XMB is definitely one of the higher choices on my hopes list because any reveal of any game will eventually come out and New Game+ isn't all that fantastic to me (though I'll no doubt use it), but an XMB!!! Now we're talking because it is exclusive and not necessary xP

As long as it is gorgeous and not boring like the XMB theme they had for XIII-2. Maybe something similar to the PSP XMB themes they had for BBS. I really like the one with the blue + gold argyle pattern.

I'd be happy with the reward being a trailer for 2.5.

Sora looks pretty cute.

Nothing that I didn't expect already ... although I do have to say, the models of Kairi, Sora, and Riku (at least what I can see of them so far) are super cute. I didn't think it was possible but they're cuter than they were before ! ♥

I really wanna know what these new bonus features are ... Maybe they will FINALLY let us have any party member in any world after clearing the game, maybe a new arena option Olympus Colosseum to allow us to fight bosses from the games story.

The new models look great. Kairi looks adorable in this scan. I wonder if these are really the same models that we had in KH3D, they look different.

The models to the left are brand new for what ever reason.

I wish we had a bigger pic so we can nerd over the differences better. But from what I can tell Sora and Riku's faces look smaller and something is different about Kairi's hair. It's longer in the front or more puffy or something.

Yeah I think they changed her hair, but her whole face looks different, cuter if you ask me.

I think it has more to do with the page being bent. But then again it's so small and unclear I can't really tell if somethings even wrong or off.

I agree a better and bigger scan would be nice.

That is also my favorite BbS theme they released, it has been my theme on my PSP ever since it was released :) I think it was released on a Japanese site by SE xP They released a ton of themes in the US, but not any single one of them could compare to the one that was released in Japan lol

I'm not trying to be a Debbie Downer here, but I don't think that will happen anytime soon, it just wouldn't make sense being able to have Ariel somehow levitate in any other world O___O Or fly in Neverland...

Kairi's hair is fuller, shinier, and her face looks a lot younger and more innocent. I love her new model most of all :)

yep. Her hair looks like that more because of the pose to me, which makes me wonder if it'll be a little more animated. her whole face is different but I think that was apparent in the trailer.

as for riku, the newer scan says it's the bent page.

Also, the xmb theme is nice. I remember one of my favorite BBS themes was simply a well-made screencap with nice icons. It was from the Gathering
