Or you could watch these hilarious joke summaries that contain both real and fake spoilers (the second is the source of my avatar): Here's a legitimate summary video which people keep saying is very informative if you really want: The plot is very complex and weird and Tetsuya Nomura was basically making it up as he went. Just what the hell exactly is going on in these games? Post about it here and I'm sure someone will be happy to help you with anything at all that might trouble you! Please use spoiler tags in this thread as there will probably be a lot of newbies joining us due to the release of KHIII and we want them to be able to experience the insanity on their own time. Kingdom Hearts Final Mix HD -> Re:Chain of Memories HD -> Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix HD -> 358/2 Days (movie) -> Birth By Sleep Final Mix HD -> Re:coded (movie) -> Dream Drop Distance HD -> 0.2 ~A Fragmentary Passage~ -> Back Cover (movie) It shows what Aqua was up to in the time between Birth By Sleep and KH1. Kingdom Hearts 0.2: ~A Fragmentary Passage~ is a small stand-alone game that essentially served as a tech demo for KHIII. ![]() ![]() It's worth watching because the Master of Masters is hilarious. There's also a movie called KH χ: Back Cover that shows the events leading up to the first Keyblade War. The games are still available for DS but they aren't super great. Note that 358/2 Days and Re:coded are movies, so you can get all the plot without playing them. You can pick up a compilation of literally every game released in the series called Kingdom Hearts: The Story So Far on PS4. I wanna get into this series! Where should I start? The prequel movie KH χ: Back Cover is probably going to be important for some dumb reason. There are movie versions of 358/2 Days and Re:coded if you want to watch them. If you want a good overall knowledge of the plot, I would recommend that you play, at the minimum, Kingdom Hearts, Re:Chain of Memories, KHII, Birth By Sleep and Dream Drop Distance. Almost every game in the series is as important to the plot as a "numbered" title. ![]() Regardless, Kingdom Hearts is a weird series in that the numbering in the titles is very misleading. To be honest, even if you have played every KH game there's no guarantee you will have any idea what's going on. I haven't played a single Kingdom Hearts game since KHII! Will I have any idea what's going on in KHIII? Second post is all previous games including compilations! It answers the question, "What would happen if you mixed Disney characters and worlds with JRPG characters and settings?" The answer is an action RPG that has spawned a couple of sequels, several spin-off games and one hell of a convoluted overarching plot.įirst post is a FAQ and latest news about the series! Kingdom Hearts is a series of games published by Square-Enix from the deranged, zipper-and-belt-buckle-infested mind of Tetsuya Nomura, known for doing the character design in such masterpieces as The Bouncer and Final Fantasy X. That was when I personally realized how video games had reached the level of art. It wasn't that they weren't knowledgeable, they just were still unraveling the story for themselves and dealing with the huge amount of information Nomura-San puts out. ![]() I will never forget walking in for the first session of Kingdom Hearts II and seeing that the producers had set up a bulletin board with a flow chart explaining the sequence of events in different universes and watching them almost struggle to sort it out.
