After the long-awaited news of a North American and European release for KINGDOM HEARTS HD 1.5 ReMIX, many of you are probably wondering where you can order a copy of the upcoming HD Remaster. A listing for KINGDOM HEARTS HD 1.5 ReMIX has been added on Amazon.com where you can pre-order the game right now for $39.99 USD!

Along with a mock-up of the box cover featuring the logo of KINGDOM HEARTS HD 1.5 ReMIX, the retailer has listed the game for a September 30th 2013 release. For any Canadian fans out there, EBGames.ca also has KINGDOM HEARTS HD 1.5 ReMIX available for pre-order with a placeholder date of October 31st 2013. These are just placeholder dates, though, so look forward to an official release date announcement as well as the unveiling of the box art in the near future!

KINGDOM HEARTS HD 1.5 ReMIX includes the previously Japan-only KINGDOM HEARTS FINAL MIX, KINGDOM HEARTS Re:Chain of Memories which was only released in North American and Japan, and KINGDOM HEARTS 358/2 Days complled into over 100 cutscenes for an all-new way to enjoy the story. With updated gameplay, graphics, and music, this will be the ultimate experience for old and new KINGDOM HEARTS fans alike.

Thanks to Geass2015 and Taochan for informing us!

Glad it isn't 60 dollars. It'd be hard to justify payin' for that shit.

Forty dollars is about what I expected to pay for the HD remix so I'm very glad that's the price listed on Amazon. :3

Just pre-ordered it. Depending on who gets what preorder bonuses, I might cancel it but for now I'm just making sure I get the pre-order price guarantee.

They tend to sometimes lower the price down five dollars or so for pre-orders and I want on that. (Whatever the lowest price they list on Amazon during the pre-order period is will automatically be the price you pay as long as you preordered before or during the price reduction)

They only charge your account when they ship the game. It's no-hassle preorder or cancel before the release.

Yeah I think I'm gonna go ahead and do that as well, like M Spock and pre order it from Amazon. I hope the price stays at $40, which I think it will, but if it doesn't well then that's why I'm gonna do this. Amazon even has a date, September 30th, but Idk if that's right, prolly not eh?

Already stated in the article that it is a placeholder date.

EB Games.ca has it listed for October 31st so there is obviously no confirmed date.

It's only two PS2 games (excluding Days), to which I've seen collections of 3 games for the same price. It should stay the same.

That was part of KHII:FM, which will not be a part of KH1.5. However, since Nomura hinted at making KH2.5, we'll probably get that option when it comes:D

Just preordered mine. I agree that the price isn't as bad as what I was expecting. These are the times I'm extra grateful for KHI cause I would never know these things otherwiseXD

Now I await the commercial to appear on tv :3 That won't happen for a while, but I'm flexible.

I'll probably pre-order from EB because they usually get the cool pre-order bonuses. Maybe we'll see a reprint of the Bradygames guides, or a box set. I've got the CoM, KH2, and DDD guides already, but I'm a sucker for collections.

40 bucks?! Just kidding, I like this price. Meh, I'm not much for pre-ordering online though I'm never sure if I'll get the game same day release or the following day. With that said, I tend to pre-order at my local GameStop whenever it is available to do so.

As much as I would love to do the no hassle preorder, I feel like its inevitable that I'll be getting mine from GameStop so that I can get it ASAP the day it comes out and because I find GameStop usually has the best preorder gifts if they do differ (please don't create the FFXIII-2 fiasco all over again SE >_<). Ugh! Now that the price is settled and great, now the preorder gift fear sets in O__O

Yes, so glad it's not the $60 crap other games give us. Love ya, Square!

Does anyone know if there's a possibility of extra pre-order stuff or anything? That would be nice to see, but I guess this is still enough.

Personally, even if it was $60 I think a lot of people would still buy it, those extra $20 is really nice though ^_^

As for a preorder gift, I think it is highly likely, SE has been doing preorder gifts for a long time, moreso they've been doing a lot of Collector's Editions as well. I know a CE for this isn't going to happen since there wasn't one in Japan and they would definitely have gotten one, but a preorder gift is definitely still on the table. I just hope it isn't postcards, between Re:CoM, Days, the BbS and KH2 postcard books, and all those that came with the MoM edition, I'm good on the KH postcard front haha xD

Not really up to Square Enix. Sony Entertainment of America and I think Europe as well has a set retail price for all HD Remaster Collections.

It is definitely possible. Right now in Japan there is a preorder bonus deal going on at 7-Eleven where if you preorder the game there you can get a special PS3 theme so hopefully something similar will be done in NA, EU, and PAL.

First off, perfect price! Could not be more satisfied! Now, time for predictions:

-Based off of this info, we know that it will be released in the fall (which consist of August, September, & October).
-From there, I say it will be released either on or before September 17th (that will be the 11th anniversary mark for North America). I think this game is to be considered as part of the 10th anniversary celebration, and I guess as long as it is after the 10-year mark but before the 11-year mark, then it counts as a 10th anniversary present.
-The September 17th mark also releases this game before Tokyo Game Show 2013 (Sept 19th-22nd), where (more than likely) the next HD collection will be announced (2.5?).

Just my thoughts.

Given that the gap between 2.5's official announcement and release will be as small as 1.5's, they'll probably save 2.5 for a later time; I'd imagine some time closer to KH3's announcement or release.

True but I've found that if I pre-order on Amazon I usually get it in the mail the morning of the release date so it's become easier for me to get through Amazon. Not sure if that's the case still, I'll let you know when my Starcraft II comes in in a couple weeks if it still goes by that.

Wow you guy are lucky if WoG, our local online game shop, is right it'll cost CHF 79.00 here.

How high are the chances of a version being released with some extras like BBS's art book? I'm think of waiting with the pre-order just in case they're doing something like that.

Do you mean the BbS CE artbook that was released in Europe? Honestly, I'd almost rather SE not even release a CE and just make an actual artbook with nicely drawn concept art and things like that instead of having people fork out extra money for a book with like 10 pages of the main renders in the guide :(

Yeah, that's what I'm referring to, didn't know it was Europe exclusive. While I agree that I'd prefer an actual artbook that's nicely done with tones and tones of concept art, new originals by Nomura and translated content of the Ultimanias, I'll take what I can get.
I didn't know those images were also in the guide, well at least this way I got them without getting the guide.

The images were just their in-game renders which always appear in the guide since those are like the basic images of each character released in Famitsu and magazines before the games release.



Shows an example of one of the pages, you should recognize those Peter, Hook, Tinker, and Lost Buys renders because they are extremely common ones. xP

That's what I got. While the book didn't really include anything new it did have more than just those renders, it also had the concept are of the world in the game, which might have also been in the guides but heck I'm still happy with what I got even if it's nothing special or unique.

It is. I remember Square Enix announcing BbS as "Summer 2010" and it was released September 10th (in Europe).

Then again September 6th is a Friday, which is a common day for games to be released in Europe. I'd still say it's just a playceholder simply because September 6th is still in summer and amazon just loves placeholders.

I WANT TO BELIEVE. Assuming that the date counts for the UK too, then that would be stupid. School starts like around the 6th of September, that wouldn't be a very smart move IMO. I'm guessing the real date would be later than that.

This is what's known as a "placeholder date." Online and offline retailers use dates that take place either at the end of the month or the end of the year when they haven't been informed of the official release date.

Again, it's all placeholder dates. We can probably expect a "true" info on the western releases around one or two weeks after the Japanese release, if they don't decide to wait until E3, that is.
