Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep gameplay

[FireEmblemMan6]

actually there is a release date so chill and idk it looks ok i mean im a hard core kh player but the battle system will have to take some gettin used to

[granvillimus]

@FireEmblemMan6 There is a release date now, along with an English teaser, but there wasn't when i posted that. So i was just telling people to lay off the bullcrap. NOW you guys can post stuff about the US release. :P

[mastermp1995]

good times

[KingdomHeartsFan2100]

Wow it looks like they spruced up the graphic! That's still great graphics but it looks like a game that's going to be awesome

[granvillimus]

This video is from 2008 yes. Early in development.

[randomewolf]

[zaqareemalcolm]

@randomewolf

Stick-Move

Up and Down-Scroll through Command Deck

Left-Switch to D-Link deck

[randomewolf]

@zaqareemalcolm thx

[granvillimus]

At this time, there is no US release date, don't post your advertisement garbage on my comments. Blocked.

[AnimeFanCJ]

Oh, i posted my last comment during the first minute where the drive bar was off screen, sorry XD

[AnimeFanCJ]

There's no drive bar, lol XD

[SuperBulwy]

lol, looks like a fake, probl just a vid your showing you downloaded

[granvillimus]

this is an early development demo which someone took pictures of at the Tokyo Game Show. Not my footage, but quite early. I don't have a PSP, this is not me showing it. This was early in the development of the game, probably quite different from the final product.

[SuperBulwy]

OH... sorry for the things i said earlier then, but cant wait till it comes out

[kla671]

@SuperBulwy yah... this looks REALLY -_- fake but IT HAS A TRAILER SO Y WOULD IT BE FAKE SUPERBULKY? who would lie about KH? EVERYONE LOVES KH! :D can i get an amen ppl?

[SuperBulwy]

@kla671 i know theres a KH Birht by sleep, its just well... i dont know why but for me it just looked fake, but granvillimus explained me why

[kla671]

@SuperBulwy heh i know trust me, thats happened to me.. this game called metroid other M was thaught to be called metroid dread and this so called, trailer looked real but someone told me it was an old demo for metroid FUSION

[dutyfan11]

amen lol

[alextan96]

@soin6 what is ur version of ur psp

[soin6]

5.50 gen d3

[frozenlight749]

"there was an interview with Nomura and it said "If you get a chance to see this movie in addition to the ending, I think your entire impression of the story will change," Nomura said. "I'm not going to spoil it, but the secret movie in this game doesn't just set up a sequel -- it puts all the pieces of the story together." so there is going to a secret ending!

[Theocpr534]

where can we see this secret moviee?!?! like... In the internet there is NO SECRET!!

[frozenlight749]

@Theocpr534 lol the secret ending hasnt been showed yet. if you want to see it you may have to wait till jan. 9th (when it comes out in jap.) i know poeple will be posting the vids up. the ending may be KHIII.idk. they just said there was going to be one.

[shaolinsword]

Nomura is working on an unannounced game and it's starting to sound like it could be KHIII

[frozenlight749]

yeah i found out and it would be a shocker if it is KHIII. but its still nice to see a secret ending cause all of the endings look really cool!

[VCR2012]

PS3?

[shaolinsword]

It doesn't say what system, only "It's not a brand new title, but there is one more unannounced title."

[theheat808]

@Theocpr534 lol the game hasn't even come out yet, it should be out tomorrow though

[moosicninja09]

comes out tomorrow on PSP in Japan.

[aguirreruru]

@moosicninja09 when is the English version will release???

[moosicninja09]

@aguirreruru

It hasn't been announced when it will be released everywhere else, but, it was officially released in Japan Jan 9th, 2010.

[aguirreruru]

@moosicninja09 soooo.... there is a english version???

[ALz3eEm07]

this demo

[J9mrkiv]

Release Dates

North America: May 2010

Europe:August 2010

Australia August 2010

These are just my estimations.

[TheGumGumMan]

@J9mrkiv

I think your NA estimation is good. Since it comes out in Japan January 2010, then NA would just need to do text and voices. Also, May is my BDAY :P

[NimbusHydragyrum]

It looks cool, but the only gripe I have is that the camera is AWFULLY close.

[granvillimus]

I just removed some comments. Keep your stupid console wars out of this video's comments. I don't want to see that garbage. Every console/handheld has it's own merits, keep it at that and stop flaming and posting the hate. I don't tolerate it and i will block whoever does it.

[joseph10881]

wat happened to sora sob sob ;(

[granvillimus]

@joseph10881 He's about 4 years old in this game. He does appear, but it's long before he became a keyblade warrior. Riku as well.

[granvillimus]

The thing about the KH series is that Nomura seems to like Sony. It took Square Enix some HUGE work to convince him to allow them to put FF13 on 360 as well. They did it due to financial reasons. KH3 might not even come out at all until the next gen systems.

[cordellhunt]

kh3 should come for multiple systems includeing xbox 360 cause i lov kingdom hearts but dont got no ps3 :(

[garrettfbpersonal]

if this game would come out for ps3 that would be AWESOME!

[granvillimus]

No it wouldn't. Keep KH3 for ps3.

[sawna5]

ya that would be sweet but they are having trouble selling psp's games so figures that they only made the 1 2 kh's for the various systems.%)

[yugi304]

It shoudl be releasing 2010 ish.....

[SuperSkuxxDeluxx]

Why the hell is the trailers and the gameplay preview of Birth by Sleep showing a year or two before it's actually released?

[airsoftpanda]

kingdom hearts 2 the best there eva will b

[RayneClouds10]

I NEED THIS GAME NOW!

[joshd108]

beat 358 over 2 days and i cant wait for this

its funny how ever since KH1 came out, we have all been wondering what the hell the secret video meant exactly, and didnt get a full understanding of what was going on untill you beat 358/2 days

now in this i guess we understand more about the main enemy in the series, xehanort.

[TheTwinklylights]

just got 358/2 days

[TheTwinklylights]

im getting 358/2 days tommorro and im not sure if its da shit or sucks any tips message me

[marylovesdavidcook]

i agree

[wha2309]

best rpg game ever and final fantasy

[elricification]

is this the real KH BBS?

[granvillimus]

Yeah.

[causethisisthriller1]

too bad i dont have a PSP.........i have kh,kh2, and KH 358/2 days.

[ipeaviola]

is 358/2 days good is it worth buying?

[magneto597]

Yes,its just like kh 2 ps2 gameplay but with a different leveling system,different chars,storyline and etc. but its preety good.worth 35 bucks to me

[causethisisthriller1]

yes!!!!!! i thought it was gonna be dumb but it is frikin amazing!!!!!!!!! you will love it!!!!! although the heartless are freaking hard!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Racsowar]

The Heartless aren´t that hard... I mean I beat the game in Proud Mode in my Very First Time.... the only Heartless that IT IS HARD it´s the damn boss called ´´Ruler of the Sky´´ or something like it.... The Game is awesome but it´s lack of some other´s extras like Secrets boss or special boss... an exception is Anti-riku...

[Chikk361]

I have 358/2 days and it's awesome. It was worth buying. But it's only for the DS.

[demonnogo]

Save up money. Its coming in summer so save a dollar a day er something. Im going to buy a psp this weekend

[KingOfDouchebags]

whoaa who told you it was coming in summer...

Don't get your hopes up too high latest news from what I've been getting is mid-late next year soo maybe in winter but either way...next year, it'll be here.

[demonnogo]

I preordered my japanese copy off of play-asia so I can wait for english ^O^ But late next year...damn...

[AdventGunners]

I've come to learn that the gameplay is fairly similar to Chain of Memories but has been tweaked to be much better. How it works is u have wat is now called a Command Board, the list of moves above the attack button which can be edited from the pause menu, once a move is used it can not be used again until the cooldown time has completed, and each move has a different cooldown time, depending on the drasticness of the attack, therefore the weaker the move, the less cooldown time and vise versa.

[tforrest322]

i hope this uses a combat system similar to kh 1 or 2

i hated chain of memories' gay cards

[DKassaian1219]

well too bad because the game is being worked on by the people who worked on kh RE: CoM

[WeLoveKirby]

I want a psp just for this game, otherwise psp just sucks. DS all the way!!

[RyuMaster678]

I SOLUTE U

[WeLoveKirby]

Thankyou, good sir! =D

I'm guessing you would do the same?

[samg877]

is tat ur face?



while the psp is black

[granvillimus]

Not me playing. I've never been to Japan.

[manoniceandfire]

This game looks awesome! btw what kind of strategy do you use to play this game? are there any limits to attacks or can you go all out?

[granvillimus]

It is similar to previous KH games, you usually hack n slash things or use magic. There are three characters- Terra, Aqua, and Ven. Terra is really strong and can make very heavy (but slower) blows physically. Aqua is more of a magic user and she excels at using spells in fighting. Ven is very fast and he is a good balanced character.

[LadyVixxen]

So Aqua's like Donald, Terra's like Goofy, and Ven is like Sora. :)

[Emosoragurl21]

Umm, no. Aqua's like Kairi, Terra's like Riku, and you're right about Ven.

[LadyVixxen]

I meant as far as their specialties. Donald's the mage, and Goofy's the strong one, Sora's the balanced one.

[manoniceandfire]

thank you :) also in your opinion was the game fun?

[psChrystine]

hate his pants :s

[shadowluna17]

were can i download kingdom hearts birth by sleep?PLSSSSS

[granvillimus]

The game isn't out until January in Japan (much later for the US). And please keep download questions out of here and keep them on the pirate sites. I don't condone nor condemn piracy, but i don't want it discussed here.

[Todeshand666]

omg, son of a fag, go and buy this game WHEN ITS OUT. you piece of garbage -.-

[necrosasuke]

unbirths, heartless and now nobodies jesus christ lol where are these things coming from and wth is an unbirth 0_o oh well only way to find out is to wait

[UkConnor]

I've heard that unbirths came from the realm of light (Which I'm not sure is even real) and were never meant to be born.

[ktrevnow]

Going to be good. replaying the games and kind of confused about the heartless. did they exist in the relem of darkness, but ansem 2 made them in the relem of light and thats how they broke the barriar or am i wrong.

[NEWM1N]

i hope they will have Zack from final fantasy 7 crisis core that would be really epic, because it takes 10 years before kingdom hearts 1

[1997gamer]

4get Zack he's dead and gone. It is time for a new era 2 arise KINGDOM HEARTS !!!!!!!!!! (I said that in Xemnas's voice )

[NEWM1N]

lol :P

[1997gamer]

lmao !!!!

[kairataiyou]

Lol fail @ 00:15

[ruizray]

this game is aviously avaiable in tokyo or china wat evr

[zaqareemalcolm]

The new enemies now have a new name,Unversed.

[granvillimus]

No actually, it's Unbirths. They are described as the "opposite of life" by Nomura. We don't know anything else about them.

[zaqareemalcolm]

They had the latest interview with Famitsu.Apparently, their names are Unversed,but due to mistranslation,they were called Unbirths.

[granvillimus]

I stand corrected. They are indeed Unversed. That's the SECOND mistranslation too for those creatures. First they called them Ambers, then Unbirths, now Unversed. Still no clue what they are though.

[zaqareemalcolm]

Oh and 1 more thing.Unversed feed on negative emotions(anger,hate,sadness etc)

[zaporozan]

they announced that they're on voice acting like first week of june...

what is it now??

lol XD..

its going to be released winter 09...heard on another site...between december 09 - febuary 2010..

plus...read what nomura said about unverse...he said sumthing what they are but not 100% complete...

[kairataiyou]

I liked the name Unbirth better. Wonder how Nomura describes these creatures and what their purpose is.

[erkansilk]

ohh i cant wait

well i think i have to play as terra in kh2fm+

bacause i caaaaannnt wait

[Stew810]

so its not comin to japan in december?

[granvillimus]

No, Nomura (creator of the series) said himself that he expects it to release AFTER the holiday season next year. You can probably expect a date MAYBE at this year's Tokyo Game Show. That's in September.

[19JonJon96]

it's set for a December 2009 release in japan. They said that. Are you talking about the North American release>

[granvillimus]

No, it never had a release date in any of the trailers besides a TBA one. Nomura himself said the game is delayed until next year, and that development hit some roadblocks. You CAN probably expect a date at this year's TGS, but it does NOT have a date for any region, Japan included. Pretty much all trailers say work in progress.

[Animettv]

nomura hasnt said a date yet so you might be wrong XD

[granvillimus]

He's said specifically enough AFTER the holiday season.

[MichaelKilfeather]

How can it be released after the holiday season next year? It's on it's finishing touches.The only thing left is voice recording.

[granvillimus]

No it isn't. The game hasn't been finished yet. If it were, they'd release it this year.

[MichaelKilfeather]

They are releasing it this year. Between december 2009 and february 2010. It will probably be summer or autumn 2010 for america and europe.

[granvillimus]

No they are NOT. Tetsuya Nomura himself said it would not be released this year. Stop contradicting the developer himself.

[MichaelKilfeather]

where did he say it wudn't be released this year? I wud like some proof.

[granvillimus]

Try "please" next time. Nomura stated in a May 30th interview that "Birth by Sleep is in a terrible state of affairs schedule-wise...Because the release plan is within the year, I am doing my best to finish it on time. At the moment well be doing voice editing over the holidays." Doing voice editing over the holidays definitely points to a delay. Expect a date at TGS this September. I'll amend my vid info with the interview source.

[AirSKid95]

Im not trying 2 argue with u or piss you off in any way but he said that they r trying 2 finish it for the holiday season this year and i never saw him say in anything that they were gonna be voice recording over the holiday's. Can you please tell me where i can find that?

[granvillimus]

Go look in the video description and click the link. It's one quarter of the way down right as the interview begins. It's voice editing they'll be doing over the holidays. Which is a pretty clear point that the game is NOT finished. Then I imagine they'll do bug testing among other things.

[antiilluminatikid]

they are releasing it in japan in december

[granvillimus]

Unconfirmed release. All it says is "2009" in the latest video. And the DS game was delayed at the last minute. You'll get a date soon, but don't trust it until the game is actually out.

[XxshonenxX]

Dude honestly the ds is shit... I have a ds and psp I play my PsP ALLOOOTTT more simply Because it's wayyy btr graphics and gameplay the only thing the ds has going for it is that it has more games... if the psp had more games then no one would get a ds and dude ppl come on pokemon... my as [09Rdog] said

my 5 year old brother plays it

[granvillimus]

DS is awesome in its own way. Made for a simpler time, when all games needed to be good is gameplay, not fancy graphics. PSP games have great games too, but I don't diss the DS either. Regarding gameplay, DS and PSP can be the same.

[AlchemicArrow]

listen before you trash the psp system go play final fantasy crisis core on it its amazing in gameplay and graphics birth by sleep is gonna be awsome ont eh system

[09Rdog]

correction pokemanz from space its a good thing its on PSP because KH2 and 1 were on PS2 so its best to keep the good hardcore games with sony unlike 358/2 days but im still lookin forward to it oh do u actually like Pokemon! my 5 yr old brother plays it!lol

[granvillimus]

Well I can actually assure everyone that the DS KH is awesome as well. It's now considered one of the best games in the series now. Gameplay like KH2 (without reaction commands) and difficulty of KHFM. Very nice indeed!

[PokemanzFromSpace]

Sucks that its on the PSP. It's such a piece of shit system.

[granvillimus]

No it isn't. I'm a Nintendo fanboy, but I can see that the PSP is a powerful and cool little system. It suffers from poor support. Some of the better systems have this issue.

[Nlittle07]

DEATH!! They needed to release it on the ps2 or 3 not the psp the series is to good to go to hand held systems as week as the PSP

[TheVGPrince]

I'm sorry, I know that Kingdom Hearts would be nice to play on a PS3 but the PSP in no way is a "weak(not week)" system. In some games its graphics rivial even that of the PS2. I can't wait for this and the DS one!! :)

[DawnOfTheDad]

In comparison to a console, it is weak. Very weak.

[burrhead92]

true, but being a handheld it's not meant to be compared to a console.

[sauron610]

GARLAND FF9 WOOT

[hoyholyhoy]

lol ok i want a jap phone then

[drew4378]

if u really think about it, there can be many sequels to kingdom hearts because the nobodies can never vanish as long as there is darkness in any individual. that being said lol when the hell is this game coming out!?

[zaporozan]

this year in japan

[hoyholyhoy]

that doesnt really answer my question, i dont really care WHO taped it, i would like to know HOW they taped it.

[granvillimus]

I'm not sure. Perhaps a fancy cell phone camera. I know Japan has fancy cell phones. They usually check people for those though. Really dunno.

[qwertiboii]

the enemys unbirths are the souls left behind like the nobdies are the bodies left behind

[hoyholyhoy]

lol where is your camera?

[granvillimus]

As stated many times, I did not take this video. I have no video camera myself or the means to upload from one. This was take from Gamekyo(dot)com. Someone else sent it into that site. Probably a Japanese dude. I'm from the US and have never been to Japan. I can't have attended this game conference.

[emoscene44]

im a huge fan of kingdom hearts and this great news to me thx

[masteron69]

hmmm i was wondering if a nobody can obtain a heart. but the heart is not rightfully theirs so something more inexplicable happens

[granvillimus]

Not a bad question. The only answer we can deduce is just that we can't say what would happen to a nobody who obtains a heart not their own. I have a strange feeling though that this heart would influence them differently from their own though. Possibly, they might connect to the previous owner's memories or something. That is what happened with Roxas since he shared Sora's heart to an extent.

[aidagatch]

awesome. so it is gonna be for PSP??

[ohxMiCHELLEx3]

obviously.

[14336422]

is this also for ps3

[granvillimus]

Not now, just for PSP. They could eventually end up porting it to a home console though like they did to Chain of Memories (first on GBA and then later remade on PS2 in 3D). If the game is popular, I guess a PS2 or PS3 remake could happen. They do like to release "final mixes" of the games later to add more content in.

[masterofthekeyblade]

any news aobut kh 3?

[granvillimus]

No news. I mean, it's been confirmed MANY times it's going to be made, but it's probably not in development yet. If there's nothing at this year's Tokyo Game Show, they've either not started it yet, or are so early in development, it's not worth showing yet.

[Kagimbrius]

I've never been so empatent for a game before! Square Enix can be a very cruel company (no realease date O_O).

[granvillimus]

Yup. I think they end up trying to make way too many games at once and end up having to delay them all.

[Kagimbrius]

Yeah, you're correct.

[SolBuster]

Actually...Square Enix is one of the nicest.They NEVER EVER strip things off of their original japanese games when they get imported to the U.S. and recently they expanded the North American executive team so americans can receive more from Square Enix JP.

= )

[Kagimbrius]

I was was being sarcasitc, i love Square Snix, i think they just make so many games they have problems releasing them.

[SolBuster]

hahaha XDD

[Kagimbrius]

Hmm, it was that funny?

[SolBuster]

I just thought it was funny what you said "They make so many games they have problems releasing them"

I just found it humorous...

[Kagimbrius]

Lol, kool.

[blt499]

I'm so happy yew can play as Aqua in this game. I mean FINALY!! they have a FEMALE Playable Character in Kingdom Hearts!! LIKE SERIOUSLY!! well, there is Larxene and Xion in Kingdom Hearts 358-2 days. BUT Aqua looks freakin awesome!!

[granvillimus]

Aqua is awesome. She doesn't even HOLD her keyblade in combat, they hover around her. Epic.

[lovivos]

it is true that this game is expected(keyword expected) to come out in december 2009 but in japan

[granvillimus]

It was expected to be out in 2009, but the creater, Tetsuya Nomura, said that the game was a complete mess in regards to scheduled release. He said it won't make it out this year, but hopefully sometime early in 2010.

[blt499]

Yeah I heard that too.

[OmgltzzJorge]

isnt it supose 2 b a card game?

[granvillimus]

No, it's a normal action RPG. No cards like Chain of Memories.

[REYMEXICANO4L]

r there any specials atacks

[granvillimus]

Pretty sure there are, depending on your definition of special attacks. I've seen reaction commands in other videos. Or at least something exactly like them. And every character plays completely differently.

[sindiewen]

game looks sick.

[Narutofreak2543]

man, if you think about it we probably wont see any sing of a release date untill FF13 comes out, then around its release it seems like it should be out

[KillSanta3]

Hmmm....I have ds psp ps2 ps3 and i am waiting to come in greece,!!!!!!!!3 months nothing!:@:S

[granvillimus]

Yeah....uh.....blocked.

[zaporozan]

the controls maybe the same as previous kh series..

L lock on, and i heard R means the shot lock system...which is the green thing...

control pads the up and down for the triangle button which changes magic...circle is attack...square is dash...x jump o_O

[granvillimus]

It's anyone's guess. The PSP is missing an analog stick and two triggers. I'm not sure how that will impact the game, but the DS KH came out really nice, so I'm sure they'll do ok with the PSP version. Maybe they'll use some of the same controls as the DS game.

[zaporozan]

i mean tgs 09 is date this september..

[takarifan101]

Nomura wants to have these game out in Japan by the Holiday season but doesn't know if he can make the deadline

Currently he has plans to present the new battling system in all it's glory at the TGS which is in november

check khinsider for more infromation on the game!

[zaporozan]

this tgs is in september...

and he said we will try to take our holiday working on birth by sleep..

[pete321254]

hahaha i cant wait for this game to come out ima buy it lol

[castilogne]

does anyone know what the camera controls are for this game? i'm just curious

[theheat808]

L and R?

or maybe the control pads
