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. In a recent interview, Tetsuya Nomura stated that a new trailer will be presented for the upcoming Tokyo Game Show.
Story
Long before Sora took up the Keyblade, 10 years before the first Kingdom Hearts, other Keyblade masters and apprentices existed. One day, one of these masters and his apprentice disappeared, foreshadowing a disaster. Three apprentices were sent to find Master Xehanort and his cohort (the 'Dark Soldier' dubbed by fans). Maleficent is suspected to be 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 unexplained ideas about the Keyblade will be answered and many connections to the main characters we know today will be answered as well. To replace the Heartless and Nobodies, the Unversed will be serving as the main species of generic enemy within the game.
In Ultimania, when asked about Birth by Sleep, Nomura answered: "Birth by Sleep will be a very important game that collects everything about the series into one story. With the three main characters, the story is as big as one of the numbered Final Fantasies. We put in a lot of connections to it in Days, and I think that a lot of questions and unknowns from the previous game will be answered in Birth by Sleep. Also, there will be quite a few original characters from previous making an appearance. This game is set the farthest in the past of any other, so it connects to Kingdom Hearts, but the main characters are three that haven’t appeared in the other games. So how their story will end, which will of course be shown in the game, will leave you wondering even more after the game has finished."
Worlds and characters
While the exact worlds present in the game, and their amount, is not totally certain, quite a few worlds have been confirmed through staff interviews, playable demos, and magazine articles. Many of the characters within these worlds have also been revealed. Besides those listed below, it is thought that Atlantica and "Pinocchio's World" might also be present; Atlantica because, in Kingdom Hearts, King Triton is seemingly aware of the events of this period, and Pinocchio's world because it was originally set to appear in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, but was removed (at least from the Japanese version).

Trailer
Scenes of the ending of Kingdom Hearts II 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, who 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 to Aqua (if you look carefully you can see her shadow) "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.
Braig, Dilan, Even, Aeleus, and Ienzo have been confirmed to appear in the game. However, the human forms of the other Organization XIII members, except for Roxas, have not.
