Keyblade wielders, may the light find you well as always! Welcome to this week's issue of Kingdom Hearts χ[chi] maintenance update report! 

It's been a week since the last maintenance. This maintenance, lasting from 13:00 to 17:00 JST on Thursday, 25 September 2014, introduced to us a whole lot of new stuff to enjoy! Ultimate Card system, refreshed Raise Draw roster, and new story missions are just a few of the many things we can expect to see in the game!<...

Hidemi Matsuzuka, part of the marketing team at Square Enix, has advertised on their Facebook page a few Keyblade keychains that are in production. The Keyblades include the Fenrir Keyblade, the Sleeping Lion, and the Ultima Weapon, all from Kingdom Hearts II.

After the teasers from the last two days, Kingdom Hearts fans everywhere have been waiting in anticipation for the latest Famitsu to be released. Kingdom Hearts Insider is proud to share these scans with you, which feature a brand new Nomura interview where he discusses Kingdom Hearts -HD 2.5 ReMIX-, Kingdom Hearts 3D [Dream Drop Distance] and Kingdom Hearts 3!

We discovered earlier today that the upcoming issue of Famitsu Weekly would include a new interview with Director Tetsuya Nomura regarding Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMix, releasing in Japan on October 2nd. However, what we didn't know was that the interview would include new details for Kingdom Hearts 3 as well!

The September 25th issue of Famitsu will contain an interview with Kingdom Hearts director, Tetsuya Nomura, along with a special feature on the upcoming Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX on the PS3. Along with the interview, you can expect impressions of the game from Famitsu itself, along with brand new screenshots.

Good news for all fans of Yoko Shimomura's re-orchestrated tunes in both Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 and 2.5 ReMIX. According to the OST database website VGMDB, the release date for both the 1.5 and 2.5 albums will be November 26th later this year. This was, in fact, confirmed by the CD sampler given to those who attended last week's Tokyo Game Show.

Yen Press had stated that they would be focusing only on the manga, but if fans responded favorably to the manga, they would consider releasing the novels as well.

All that waiting and support has finally paid off, as today, it was discovered on Yen Press's official website that KINGDOM HEARTS - THE NOVEL would be releasing in March 2015!

Today at Tokyo Game Show 2014, Square Enix just announced their brand knew cloud gaming business, Shinra Technologies, which will be run by former Square Enix president Yoichi Wada. Formerly known as Project Flare, this cloud-centered business has been developed alongside Just Cause developer Avalanche Studios. While now named after the infamous Shinra Electric Power Company from Final Fantasy VII, rest assured this company will not try to suck the life out of the planet and create super-human soldiers.

It's been a long time waiting but the cover art for the Kingdom Hearts Series Memorial Ultimania has finally been revealed! Releasing on October 2nd, this Ultimania consists of 256 pages of detailed information, guides and artwork from the entire series thus far, including some that has never been released to the public.
