'''''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix''''' is a Japan-exclusive reissue of ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' that uses English voice acting with Japanese subtitles among additional in-game features.
'''''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix''''' is a reissue of ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'' for the {{w|PlayStation 2}}. Most plot and gameplay elements are the same, and the game also includes the features added to the international version of the game. The game combines English voice-overs with Japanese text and controls.


==Limited releases==
The PlayStation 2 version is exclusive to Japan. The game was remastered in HD and released as part of ''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX]]'' for the {{w|PlayStation 3}}. As opposed to the original ''Final Mix'', the remake features Japanese voice acting in the Japanese release. It was later released as part of ''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX]]''.
===Pre-order goods===
Depending on what store the game was pre-ordered, customers could get a CD containing tracks from the game or a playing card set adorned with ''Kingdom Hearts'' characters and symbols. Also at some stores in Japan they were giving away a dual Keyblade embroidered necklace with a reserved copy.


===''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'' Platinum Limited===
==Development==
''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'' Platinum Limited came in a box containing the game case, a sheet of eight ''Kingdom Hearts'' stickers; a postcard calendar featuring Tetsuya Nomura artwork and—contained in a CD case—a block figure of Sora, part of Square's Minimum Collection; and three can badges. The set costs 8,800 yen.
Many features, plot points, and other miscellaneous elements initially had to be cut from the first Japanese release of ''Kingdom Hearts'' due to time constraints. Instead of simply dubbing the game that was made and shipping it internationally as is, the team decided to reintroduce some of this cut content in the international release. Realizing that Japan was left with an incomplete package compared to the rest of the world, the team decided to re-release the international version of the game in Japan. Even more cut content was reintroduced in this version, which the team finally considered feature complete, hence the ''Final Mix'' subtitle. Due to a significant amount of English voice lines being recorded for scenes that were not in the original Japanese version, the team elected to not redub the scenes and instead used Japanese subtitles over the English audio. New scenes either used recycled audio or had no dialogue at all.
