'''''Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep''''' is an upcoming game in the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' series set to be released on the Sony PSP. The game is named after the unlockable trailer which appears at the end of ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix]]''. It will be created by the same team that created the game ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]''.

Currently, the game is in the stage of voice acting.

==Story==
Long before [[Sora]] took up the keyblade, 10 years before the first ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' there were other keyblade masters and apprentices that existed. One day, one of these masters and his apprentice disappeared, foreshadowing a disaster to come. Another master, sensing the impending danger, sent three apprentices to find [[Master Xehanort]] and his cohort (the 'Dark Soldier' dubbed by fans). [[Maleficent]] has been suspected as the main antagonist in this game, causing the disappearance of [[Master Xehanort]] and his apprentice, thus causing this 'great disaster' which was mentioned by [[Aurora]] in ''Kingdom Hearts''. Many mysteries and any unexplained ideas about the keyblade will be answered and many connections to the main characters we know today will also be answered as well.

==Characters==
The characters for ''Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep'' have been revealed thus far from the trailers of TGS 2007 and TGS 2008, Jump Festa 2008 and 2009 and through various interviews with Tetsuya Nomura and his staff working on this project.

*[[Terra]]
*[[Aqua]]
*[[Ven]]
*[[Sora]] (Young)
*[[Riku]] (Young)
*[[Yen Sid]]
*[[King Mickey]]
*[[Donald]]
*[[Goofy]]
*[[Snow White]]
*[[Cinderella]]
*[[Jaq]]
*[[Aurora]]
*[[Hercules]] (Younger)
*[[Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather]]
*[[Gus]]

The villains like the main protagonists and other characters were also revealed through trailers of Jump Festa 2008 and 2009, TGS events of 2007 and 2008 and through scans, playable demos, etc.

*[[Master Xehanort]]
*[[Master Xehanort's Apprentice]]
*[[Unbirths]]
*[[Maleficent]]
*[[Wheel Master]]
*[[Lucifer]]
*[[Magic Mirror]]
As of yet the Heartless have not been confirmed, however in the trailer at the end of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', the Heartless symbol, without the crosses through the center, is still located on the "Way To The Dawn" Keyblade, so the Heartless symbol at least is present to some extent.

==Worlds==
It is speculative as to how many other worlds will be present in the game thus far since in many interviews it has been implied there will be a "normal feel of Disney worlds with one or two worlds where you will be surprised". Since the plot of the game apparently focuses around the [[Princesses of Heart]], it is likely that [[Agrabah]], [[Wonderland]] and [[Beast's Castle]] will appear in the game. There will also be a timeshift in the worlds since this does take place a decade before the first ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' (i.e. a young [[Hercules]] in the Coliseum or a young [[Sora]] and young [[Riku]] in Destiny Islands). It is possible that because of this, [[Atlantica]] could appear since [[King Triton]] knew about the Keyblade before the events of the original Kingdom Hearts.  In the ''Kingdom Hearts'' manga, Yuffie said that [[Maleficent]] destroyed their world and that Cid rescued [[Leon]], [[Yuffie]] and [[Aerith]] when they were still kids. "Pinocchio's World" Dubbed by Nintendo Power was to appear in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'' (like [[Snow White's House]] was rumored to as well), but was removed for reasons unknown and could be included in the game (since [[Monstro]] escaped the world when it was destroyed and [[Geppetto]] began searching for [[Pinocchio]] after that occured). The only summons that have yet to have their worlds present in any ''Kingdom Hearts'' games are [[Stitch]], [[Dumbo]], [[Bambi]] and [[Chicken Little]], so it could be possible that one of them (if not all of them) will have their worlds represented in the game. Disney/Pixar worlds may be possible. Confirmed locations include:

*[[Snow White's House]]
*[[Castle of Dreams]]
*[[Enchanted Dominion]]
*[[Olympus Coliseum]]
*[[Destiny Islands]]
*[[Hollow Bastion]]/[[Radiant Garden]]
*[[Sunset Horizons]]
*[[Twilight Town]] ([[Yen Sid's Tower]])

==Trailer==
Scenes of the ending of ''Kingdom Hearts'' flash by on the screen, and two phrases are seen clearly on screen. One reads “Deep Past” and the other “Shut-Eyes gives birth to the concealed fate.”

The trailer begins with a boy who bears an uncanny resemblance to [[Roxas]] conversing with another young boy with dark hair. Their surroundings seem to resemble Hollow Bastion (Radiant Garden). The name “[[Ven]]” is thrown outward, referring to the boy who looks like Roxas from the [[Birth by sleep]].

The scene change various times before stopping at an image of the [[Old Man]] from the ''[[Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+]]'' Secret Ending. He is called Master Xehanort by [[Terra]], another character from the Final Mix+ secret ending. Soon after, Terra summons his [[Keyblade]] and the screen changes.

The video then changes back to Terra battling against a Guardian, whom is obviously a male. This is the same man from the Secret Ending of ''Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+'' that the Old Man creates. Terra is able to forcibly get the man’s helmet off, but his face is concealed.

[[King Mickey]] is shown summoning his [[Keyblade]], and then the scene changes very quickly to Terra on a beach. He seems to be watching two boys play in the ocean. After he rests his weapon into the ground, the two boys he was watching are clearer and they look like [[Sora]] and [[Riku]]. Soon after, Ven says "We're "friends" right... Therefore I wanted to ask you something. Erase me.” The phrase Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep arises.

[[Kairi]] could appear in this game as it was said she came from the Radiant Garden in Ansem's reports, and Sora also had a flashback of Kairi as a young girl being told about the light and darkness.
