*Three new Dream Eaters | *Three new Dream Eaters have been added: [[Catanuki]], [[Tubguin Ace]], and [[Beatalike]].<ref>[http://www.khinsider.com/news/Famitsu-Interviews-Nomura-on-KINGDOM-HEARTS-3-HD-2-8-FCP-Unchained-X-6667 Famitsu interview with Tetsuya Nomura] —We were also able to play the HD version of KH3D, which is intimately connected to KH3, and… there was a tanuki-looking Meow Wow-type Dream Eater!<br>'''Nomura''': That's Catanuki (laughs). We had the actual Osaka team and everything, so I had them add it in for me. There are more new Dream Eaters, and you'll be able to get in-game all the friends you made through AR cards in KH3D.</ref>{{?}}<!--use primary source--><!--AR card DE available in-game isn't new, as they have recipes in the NA/PAL release already.--> | ||

Reality Shift is now triggered through the buttons, as you were able to try in the demo, and everything can now be achieved on one screen. Flick Rush, where Dream Eaters can battle, has also been condensed to one screen, and it now takes the form of selecting cards to use with a cursor.</ref>{{?}}<!--use primary source--> | ||
**When activating Reality Shifts, Sora and Riku now raise their Keyblades followed by a flash of light, as opposed in the original version where they jump and dive directly into the ground.<ref>[https://youtu.be/pjyGuXBmsRM?t=4s ''Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD'' — Demo @ Games Week 2016]</ref> | **When activating Reality Shifts, Sora and Riku now raise their Keyblades followed by a flash of light, as opposed in the original version where they jump and dive directly into the ground.<ref>[https://youtu.be/pjyGuXBmsRM?t=4s ''Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD'' — Demo @ Games Week 2016]</ref> | ||

In addition to PS4 trophies, the trophies from the original game are also there as a separate feature. Other than that, drop times have been extended, and some enemy reactions are currently undergoing adjustment. And, as a series-first experiment, KH3D will be in 60fps. There, it differs fundamentally from the original.</ref>{{?}}<!--use primary source--> | *The game now runs at 60 FPS during gameplay, while cutscenes remain at 30 FPS.<ref name="fps">[http://www.khinsider.com/news/Famitsu-Interviews-Nomura-on-KINGDOM-HEARTS-3-HD-2-8-FCP-Unchained-X-6667 Famitsu interview with Tetsuya Nomura] - '''Nomura''': Yes.

* | *The opening sequence has been reworked to fit the CGI animation, opening credits, and some of the Mickey Mouse animations from the original game onto one screen. | ||
*Due to the lack of a camera and Streetpass function, two [[trophies]] have been replaced. | ** The missing animations include: | ||
*** Mickey conducting before the storm in the Destiny Islands segment. | |||
*** The dual Mickeys during the Roxas segment - for most of it, only one Mickey is shown, but none are shown during the Roxas vs Axel segment. | |||
*** Mickey rooting on Sora and Riku during the laser dome and finisher parts of the Xemnas segment. | |||
*** Mickey jumping out of his robe to confront Master Xehanort. The HD opening sequence keeps the jump, but not the animation of the robe falling. | |||
** However, the opening sequence in [[Theater Mode]] removed the opening credits, and all but one of the Mickey Mouse animations entirely - the single kept animation was of Mickey summoning books at the very start of the sequence.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1HGxY4_Z8w 3DS vs PS4: ''Dream Drop Distance'' Opening Comparison]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vVNOYTnxIuk Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD Theater Mode Scene 001- Opening] </ref> | |||
