I'm guessing [chi] is there to clarify that the X there is in fact the ancient letter and not the modern X. So the title is pronounced "Kingdom Hearts Key". Interesting.

Kinda sorta. Information that was released very early on said that this title would take place during the Keyblade War, although the game itself is not exactly canon. Think of it as the series's first true spin-off title.

This is pretty much the first official spin-off for KH and has no affect on the story of the other titles. That being said, it sounds as though it's going to be a lot of fun and if NA has the opportunity to play it then you should give it a chance!

Also, DDD was our first step in moving forward with the series. It's on the right track. :3

The basic version of the game is free to play so it doesn't hurt to try. Paying is optional as it's for additional items and further accessibility of the game.

It was already confirmed to be not canon when it was first revealed last year. This game is just some cute fun for people to bum time on if they ever feel bored, like most online browser games.

Personally I find the Mobile/Avatar Mode/Theatrhythm-style ugly as hell. The dead eyes, the rosy cheeks and these tiny noses just creep me out, I'll take a fish face instead any day.

So I wouldn't pay money for it but I'm interested how the story unfolds and if it's presented any good. From what I can tell the game is basically a mindeless Facebook game (oddly without being on Facebook), where you can only play 5 minutes for an hour if you're not buying some overexpensive stuff from an ingame-store.

I'm not sure what you are saying, X is not an "ancient letter", it's still used today. The [chi] is there for people who don't know how to pronounce it.

That's... not what I was talking about. It has nothing to do with Birth by Sleep.
When I say "too much on the X", I'm talking about the whole X inside an X, and the larger green X having the flowing points at the end of it, not to mention the third X stuffed in there. It just feels like there is too much there.

I'm not sure what you are saying, X is not an "ancient letter", it's still used today. The [chi] is there for people who don't know how to pronounce it.

Actually, I think he's referring to the fact that the "X" in "X-Blade" is not actually a "X". It's an ancient letter that looks like in X, and is pronounced either "Keyblade", with ephisais on the "key", or "Kai-blade", without any ephisais. At least, that's what I got playing BBS.

I just worked on my KH timeline for an hour or two, and on an iPad, so this might be weirdly phrased.

Also, wait, I think I might be able to find the "X"...

Key part of the storyline? Sorry, lol, but you apparently don't know what you're talking about.

KH PC is the first true Spin-off title of the series and has close to no impact on the actual main story.

No, it's not for Facebook, but FB is generally mentioned in explanations since everyone and their mother thinks this is a legit canon PC game. When you think of browser social games, you think of FB, though Japan has plenty that aren't tied to it (Bravely Default Praying Brage for example).

I'd highly suggest reading this if you want to catch up on KHX.

Well, this is a nice surprise! I was wondering when we we'd get more info about this game (seeing as how 1.5 HD Remix is coming out soon-ish, and I knew Japan was getting preorder bonuses about the browser game).

And I have to say: I'm really digging the green color scheme here. I think a lot of people originally thought that was going to be DDD's color scheme, but instead they went with magenta to make it look 3D-esque. Overall, I'm happy that this color is being used now. And what a nice shade of green, too! Just makes me wonder what color KHIII will be, though...

Also, this might be the first normal, non-head-scratching-title that KH has gotten in a long while. I definitely approve. Although, with the title... do you think it'd be a stretch to say they might drop a few hints about Kingdom Key's origins in the game?

And with all of the Xs, I wonder if we might get more info about the Seven and Thirteen/X-Blade in this title. It is about the Keyblade War, after all. (Even though it isn't canon at all, and if I'm being realistic we probably won't get any new insight into the series with it.)

By the way, I know as I'm typing this it isn't going to happen, but I want a Kairi card. Seriously. She did a little fighting in KHII, so it would be appropriate to have one available somewhere. And who knows? Maybe it would hint at how she'll fight in KHIII. Really, I know there's no chance they'd do that, but I want her represented in some way. I tell ya, every time new Sora and Riku things are released, where Kairi isn't included at all, I die inside a little more.

But that's neither here nor there, so I'm going to get off that topic before I get too depressed about Kairi's treatment in the series. This is generally a happy topic, after all. And I'm happy about all of this:) Yeah...

The game is being marketed as a strategy card game, so it seems like it might not be a "click-to-win" kind of deal. We will have to see.

Also we don't know much about the story beyond this and what was said in this latest Message from the Kingdom.

It's also briefly explained by Master Xehanort in Birth By Sleep.

@oathkeeperriku09 Tbh, I've called it the Kye-Blade ever since Hellfirecomms did their playthrough for BbS. I really wish they would just redub BbS and KH3D with that pronunciation when that HD collection comes out. I mean, with that spiel Xehanort gave in BbS, it explained well how he could/should have called it that. But instead, they've just added confusion where there doesn't need to be confusion.

And it makes no sense! It's so disjointing in BbS when Ven is talking about the X-Blade, and Aqua somehow knows he's talking about something other than a regular Keyblade (even though he pronounces it that way), as she'd never heard of the X-Blade in her life. Ugh.

Nice that we finally got some info on it. I'm honestly not that interested in it yet, but I hope that will change with the more information we get on it. I wonder how they'll explain how alice is in wonder land if this is supose to take place thousands of years ago in the age of fairy tails.
I really hope the card system is more fun than the one in CoM, but the fact that it's a strategic game kind of indicated I'll have a hard time with it.

Yeah, it's really just a pain that both the Keyblade and the X-Blade are pronounced the exact same way... If you'd turn of the subtitles you'd be lost.

So, Kingdom Hearts χ[chi]... Maybe it's story will be on the Keyblade Wars era! It makes sense, after all, the keyblades were created to resemble the χ-blade so people could try to get Kingdom Hearts' light for themselves... The names always have a meaning from the story, maybe this is the one!

For reasons that I won't go into a long-winded explanation, I'll say for now that I'm in! I just had to make sure I read that right.

So...an online browser game that's actually free? I didn't believe it at first....I mean apart from you know paying the additional items if one wanted to.

Personally I find the Mobile/Avatar Mode/Theatrhythm-style ugly as hell. The dead eyes, the rosy cheeks and these tiny noses just creep me out, I'll take a fish face instead any day.


It's not actually that same style if you want to be technical about it, though I can understand where you're coming from.



Also if anyone cares, they've revamped the cards if the two in the OP are any indication. Great news actually, because the old ones weren't anything to brag about.

Sounds good about the revamp. Chances are those old pics were early alpha or pre-alpha even, so we it makes sense it'll look better when we see it live. Looking forward still to it.

So, Kingdom Hearts χ[chi]... Maybe it's story will be on the Keyblade Wars era! It makes sense, after all, the keyblades were created to resemble the χ-blade so people could try to get Kingdom Hearts' light for themselves... The names always have a meaning from the story, maybe this is the one!


Just keep in mind that at the end of the day, this is a free, browser-based social game.

I wonder if the game will have multiple Sora cards. Like KH2 Sora plus a different card for each Drive Form, DDD Sora, Data Sora, etc.


I think it's highly likely. I don't exactly know how the cards work, but with the Kingdom Hearts Trading Card Game that came out both in Japan and the US a while back, they had "Player" cards and those Player Cards came as a variety of characters, with many of Sora's forms being their own player card.

Let's just hope that this game even gets a NA release.


I'm really hoping it does. Out of curiosity, I know if it is released only in Japan one can still play it on a US computer, but aren't online games usually related? The reason I ask is because, if I do decide to play this game, I'm buying everything...I mean EVERYTHING until they start selling a jacket for your avatar for $10.00 <_< and I wouldn't want to buy stuff only to have it come to the US and not be able to use anything. So how exactly do online games work in that respect? I don't play FB games or any games on my PC for that matter so I'm really out of the loop on this kind of stuff ^_^

It's portrayed as an "ancient" letter in-universe by Master Xehanort in the context of the KH mythology, but in real life Chi is just a normal letter of the greek alphabet. ;)


Or...Kingdom Hearts could just take place millenniums in the future where Earth doesn't exist?!?!?!? A world where radioactivity allows animals to talk and creates mermaids and other creatures...jkjkjk

I first saw the logo while browsing on the Disney Wiki, and I thought it was for a fan game until I saw links to Message from the KINGDOM. Haha. XD

I love those teal-green colors for the logo. I've always wanted to see green used for a KH game.
I didn't think much of the game at first from the Wonderland pics, but now I'm interested.

@oathkeeperriku09 Tbh, I've called it the Kye-Blade ever since Hellfirecomms did their playthrough for BbS. I really wish they would just redub BbS and KH3D with that pronunciation when that HD collection comes out. I mean, with that spiel Xehanort gave in BbS, it explained well how he could/should have called it that. But instead, they've just added confusion where there doesn't need to be confusion.

And it makes no sense! It's so disjointing in BbS when Ven is talking about the X-Blade, and Aqua somehow knows he's talking about something other than a regular Keyblade (even though he pronounces it that way), as she'd never heard of the X-Blade in her life. Ugh.
to be fair, ven did say "some kind of", and we don't really know if terra and aqua fully understood it as they didn't really have the time, though I guess they could've asked.

I’m not into browser-based social games so I’m sorry if this is a dumb question. In games like these do people ever make guilds like they do in MMORPG’s?

If Kingdom Hearts X does have guilds we’ll have to make one, the biggest guild of all. We shall rule as kings and dominate it all.

The logo is kinda fugly design-wise but I like the green color of it! Great to see that it's a free-to-play game, aside from optional items (which was to be expected anyways). I hope every Kingdom Hearts fan will get the oppurtunity to play this game, it looks fun! (gotta lover the artstyle as well)

No, this is an online browser game. Unless you don't have an online connection and an updated browser, you can play this game. They are using the broad term for PC.

Well, since it's not canon... no where. But in general, it would be placed hundreds of years before Birth by Sleep

It's a browser game. The best example I could think of as to what I expect it to be like would be that Dragon Quest browser game.

It's supposed take place around the time of the Keyblade War but it's none canon. I suppose it's in the same vain as an MMORPG. Not much is known about it at the moment though we know you use cards in battle.

Well that's going to create awkward vocal conversations ... Saying chi feels slightly embarrassing and I know plenty of friends are going to call it by the normal letter X...

It's a pretty logo though and I'm glad the title isn't as long or uncomfortably cryptic as KH's other side games. I'm excited to make my own little keyblade wielder, too aaaahhh⭐⭐

Well, it's pronounced "Key" or "Kai" in Kingdom Hearts I believe... so just say "Kingdom Hearts Key"

Yes, its pronounced like 'key' (from BBS, I think??)) I don't know why, but if I asked a friend "Hey did you hear about Kingdom Hearts 'Key'" it would feel embarassing. I told my sister about the title a little after I made that post and it felt very ucomfortable !!

I don't know. Is just weird hueheuheueh

wait was it confirmed that its completely non canon

this game could be interesting in a few ways (introduce new worlds/give some backstory) but probably won't
