I managed to read your review when you posted it, and I really enjoyed it. For sure will have to pick this up eventually.

Of course they were approached and agreed to it.

You can see the Disney trade mark on the image, they own Sora and thus the only way this happened was from them saying yes.

Don't forget, you can get the DLC even if you don't have the game! This is important since he's a limited time download.

/inb4 you can only download him through a special menu in game.

Not until Winter, I believe. Probably around 2.8's launch, since the PR singles that game as the reason for this cross promotion.

I kind of figured the DLC would be bundled together with 2.8 like how the FFXV demo was bundled with Type-0. Then it could be released online at a much later date.

Wow I did not see this coming at all, what with Sora being partly owned by Disney and all and the logistics of asking Disney for permission. Awesome to see some KH love in WoFF though! I'm actually pretty excited to see what his attack will be...

Sora is actually entirely owned by Disney, so it definitely is a surprise. With Nomura saying there are other collaborations in the works, it might not even be the last of the surprising appearances :o

So he will be available on the PSN Store for free? No codes or anything? I have no plans on picking up WoFF anytime soon (darn you KH1.5 + 2.5 platinum trophies!) but I'll definitely download him in case.

gosoxtim

Well now we have Disney Infinity and this. If the collaborations are planned now then they'd probably be for upcoming games, so what games are coming 2017 that could have collaborated with SE/Disney?

Can't say. No details have been released in regards to how Sora is gained. I thought the PR said it was a free download, but it just says download so it could be distributed in a different way.

Of course he will. Lann and Reynn will be in KH3, obviously. They fall through a door in Nine Wood Hills leading them to the Kingdom Hearts universe and find themselves under attack by some vicious Heartless. Their Mirages aren't enough to take them down, but thankfully Sora, Donald and Goofy were passing by.

Lann: "Woah, Reynn check it out! Sora's a Jiant!"
Sora: "I'm not a giant! I'm just me like always, Lann. But you look a lot shorter now...Weren't you a lot bigger?"
Lann: "I'm not short! I'm a Jiant!"
Reynn: "[aside] Oh no, there's two of them..."

And come to find out they'd been summoning Sora from out of the KH universe into Grymoire. Because of how time is different between universes (thank you established rules in WoFF), time would not move in the KH universe so Sora didn't think much about it.

Donald: "You were being summoned to another universe and you didn't tell us!?"
Sora: "I didn't think it was real, so I never thought about it!"

I mean why would they miss out on having two characters in a game where it is established that there are multiple universes and not have said characters travel to another universe in canon?

Its Nomura so anything is possible by this point lol. I do think it would be cool to see Lan and Reynn in KH3 though. They already look so much like regular KH characters that seeing them walk around Radiant Garden or Twilight Town wouldn't be that strange to me.

So what move do you think the Sora summon will have? I am thinking that Sonic Blade or Ars Arcanum would be the most likely candidates for his attack. They could always do a completely original attack as well.

Honestly at this point I think the KH look in WoFF was completely intentional just for this exact reason now.

Strike Raid perhaps? Hm. Sora doesn't exactly have a signature move, now that I think about it. He's got plenty of cool moves, but they are used by other characters in the franchise.

Riku, Aqua, Terra, Ven, Roxas, and even Xion have signature moves all their own, but Sora doesn't.

New might be best, yeah. A combination of multiple attacks could work out well to become one new move. Like starts as a Strike Raid, then moves into Sonic Blade, into Ars Arcanum, into Ragnarok with a lot of light.

Hmm that's a good question. Its possible that he might not speak at all, but I would assume that he would get SOME kind of dialogue. Or at least the usual "Give me strength" and "Take this" stuff he tends to do in battle.

It really wouldn't surprise me honestly. What better way to make a FF game with a family friendly tone than to use KH for inspiration right?

And I love the sound of that original attack! Combine some of the series more iconic attacks to create one really powerful one. I have only seen the summon attacks for Tidus and Sephiroth, but that sounds like the kind of move a typical summon character would use in the game.

they got to give sora kind of dialogue when he summon i mean i understand not giving sepiorth dilaogue since all really he need is his pose but sora is dialogue is what made him who he is

also i wonder how lann and reynn will react when they see differnt versions of final fantasy characters

I guess Trinity Limit could also be one the moves Sora does when he is summoned. A combo move would be nice to see too, like Ars Arcanum or either Ragnarok.

& then they team up with Tyro & Rain to battle Spiritus on Amostra & we'll officially hit critical mass on Crossover OCs.

Nomura made a live concert​ canon. Nothing can be ruled out now.

One of my laments for Disney Infinity's shutdown is that we'll never get to see what shenanigans Nomura would've pulled with a KH Playset.
