== | ==Announcement== | ||
Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix had been rumored for some time in middle-late 2006. Though [[Nomura]] did not confirm its development, he has stated that were a Final Mix to be created, he would use a "trump card". | |||
== | In September 2006, Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix was finally announced, along with Re:Chain of Memories, a Playstation 2 remake of Chain of Memories, with full 3-D rendering and voice acting. The two would be packed together, creating Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+. | ||
The remake was released on March 29, 2007, hitting stores all across Japan. Currently no plans have been announced for release in the United States or other countries, despite the topic being popular across [[Kingdom Hearts]] related forums. | |||

[[ | ''Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix'' expands on the original ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' with several new features and plot elements. Scans of magazine articles and preview videos have appeared on numerous websites. They include additional scenes involving the three mysterious armored entities at the end of the ''Kingdom Hearts II'' secret ending. More recent screenshots have shown one of these three in combat with [[Sora]], [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]]. The being, dubbed the ''Enigmatic Soldier'' by many fans (referencing a secret boss of [[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]], the [[Enigmatic Man]], is presumed to be a secret boss, since he has more life bars than any standard boss. Preview videos also indicate that battling [[Roxas]] will be possible, though the context of the duel is unknown. Square has also revealed that each member of [[Organization XIII]] can be challenged in a secret area of [[Hollow Bastion]] and fought independently of the storyline. | ||
[[ | |||
[[ | Voice-acting on ''Final Mix'' will be in Englich, with Japanese subtitles. | ||
Images released to websites indicate these changes/additions: | |||
*Members of Organization XIII can be battled in an arena-like setting in the style of [[Castle Oblivion]]. This includes battles with Lexaeus, [[Zexion]] and [[Marluxia]], who were all eliminated in [[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]. Square later confirmed that optional battles with highly powered-up members of the [[Organization]] would be available in [[Hollow Bastion]]. | |||
*New weapons and accessories, including a replica of [[Lexaeus]]' tomahawk for [[Donald]], a copy of [[Vexen]]'s shield for [[Gooy]], and a crown for Sora. | |||
*A "theater mode" - menus where previously viewed cutscenes can be rewatched with Japanese voices. | |||
*Several new cutscenes involving [[Roxas]], including scenes of him conversing with [[Axel]] in [[Twilight Town]] while wearing the Organization's signature black robes. There are also additional scenes of Roxas and [[Riku]], including shots of their second battle, after Riku had taken the form of [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]]. | |||
*Scenes involving a caped man facing opposition from the three knights seen at the end of the original game's secret ending, including shots of one of the knights' helmets shattered, revealing the face of a boy who looks similar to Roxas. In some of these magazine scans, an enormous [[heart]] emitting pale light, can be seen, assumed by most to be [[Kingdom Hearts]]. | |||
Secret features can be accessed in ''Final Mix'' by clearing [[RE:Chain of Memories]] first. Clearing ''FInal Mix'' can also unlock secrets in [[RE:CHain of Memories]]. | |||
