"The Kingdom Hearts series was first born on the PlayStation 2; however, it has gone and spread its wings into other realms since then and now it carries a new bundle of joy in the form of portable PSP title Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep. While the title radically takes the story aspect of the game farther away from the original setting with Sora and friends, this new game will focus on the three (slightly) new faces pictured above (from left: Aqua, Ventus and Tera)..."

The two playable parts of "Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep" were Tera's chapter in the world of Sleeping Beauty, and Ventus (Ven)'s chapter set in Cinderella's world. In previously released info we've seen Tera, and Ventus who has been called "Ven" to this point, as the main characters. It would appear "Ven" is a nickname and Ventus is the character's official name. Though, from his appearance we want to call Ventus "Roxas"...

Putting name discussion aside, first we played Tera's chapter. In a world of wide rolling green plains, we're abruptly attacked by enemies. They're a new type of enemy, neither Heartless nor Nobody, never before seen in the Kingdom Hearts games. It appears they're named Unbirths. With a design that's a fusion of curves and sharp points, we get the impression they're like a middle ground between Heartless and Nobodies. Here we'll introduce a summary of the new features and game elements. Tera, with a large physique and impressive attacks, is a Power Type character, though he can use magic. However, unlike the MP system from the [Kingdom Hearts] series so far, once you've used a magic attack you are unable to use it again for a set amount of time. You do need to use a variety of magic, and we get the feeling strategy and tactics will play a bigger part...but, will we lose the ability to just charge our enemies and rely on Cure to see us through? Also, basic attacks have been majorly changed. If you repeatedly choose "Attack" the command changes from "Attack" to "Blitz" to "Barrage", and the action gets more and more furious. Also if you continue to attack, the attack attribute type changes. There's a time limit, and we're reminded of the Form transformations from Kingdom Hearts II. This time, the attack types seem to be called "Command Style". Among the Command Styles it appears there are quite a few, like the fire-type "Fire Blazer&quot...

Kombo writes: "A few days ago, we posted a Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep trailer that, while certainly tantalizing for Kingdom Hearts faithful, was, at best, indecipherable. No more, however, as Zack from Crisis Core Terra and friends are back, still speaking moon language in their dulcet tones, but with little English letters following them from scene to scene."

According to Quartermann's reports from 1up, in the latest issue of EGM, speculation is high about a Wii-xclusive spin-off of the Kingdom Hearts franchise. Now, a series of prequels may be in the works for different platforms, much like the Compilation of Final Fantasy VII has done so. The FFVII Compilation has reached PS1, PS2, PSP and mobile phones so far, and the Kingdom Hearts series may very well follow suite.

Kingdom Hearts games have appeared on the Playstation 2 (Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II) and the Game Boy Advance (Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories.)

Square is expected to make an announcement at this year's Tokyo Game Show, scheduled for late September.

We were hoping to get details on the next Kingdom Hearts project at this event, but unexpectedly, Square Enix has decided not to release anything. A brief new trailer was shown that's basically incomprehensible to anyone that's not a KH superfan. It depicted a seemingly unconscious Sora flying through the air, a giant field filled with dozens of keyblades, and mysterious figures in really cool armor - who were they? We have a hunch that one was an adult Sora, but we could be completely crazy so ...
