Kingdom Hearts Re:coded is an upcoming remake of Kingdom Hearts coded that will be released on the Nintendo DS.[2] It is one of the two titles being worked on by the Kingdom Hearts team, as hinted at in the Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Ultimania.[3]

Synopsis

After the conclusion of Kingdom Hearts II, Jiminy Cricket finds an entry in his journal that he didn't write: "Their hurting will be mended when we return to aid it." [4]In an attempt to learn where it came from, King Mickey turns the journal into data, and creates Data Sora in order to explore it. However, they are mysterious "Bugs" in the data, which seem to be intricately linked to the enigma of the journal.[5] The main story appears to be the same as Kingdom Hearts coded.

Gameplay

The gameplay in Kingdom Hearts Re:coded is largely the same as in Kingdom Hearts coded, focusing on the manipulation of Bug Blocks to solve puzzles and reach new areas, but also incorporates the Deck Command system used in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, which allows players to design "decks" of various combat abilities to use against enemies.
