    So much speculation over this game. Its being released the 28th of March.

     

    Confirmed Worlds:

    All worlds are now much bigger, much more extensive, and much more detailed than they were in Kingdom Hearts 1.

     

    -The Destiny Islands. - Includes more than one island this time.

    -Twilight Town. - Seen in Chain of Memories; home of the blonde-haired kid.

    -Disney Castle. Finally playable.

    -Castle Oblivion. - As far as we've seen, only in a short cutscene at the beginning.

    -That beach from Deep Dive.

    -Agrabah. ("Aladdin") - Includes the palace this time.

    -Halloween/Christmas Town. ("The Nightmare Before Christmas") - Features the actual storyline from the movie this time.

    -Ancient China. ("Mulan") - New world.

    -Ancient Greece. ("Hercules") - Includes Greece itself, the Coliseum, and the Underworld, which also has its own coliseum.

    -The Fabled Countryside. ("Beauty and the Beast") - New world.

    Confirmed Characters:

    Destiny Islands - Kairi, Selphie

    Twilight Town - Currently nameless Blonde-Haired Kid, his three friends, Namine

    Disney Castle - Minnie, Daisy

    Agrabah - Aladdin, Abu, Jasmine

    Holloween/Christmas Town - Jack

    Ancient China - Mulan, Mushu, Shang, Chin Po, Yao, Ling, the Hun army

    Ancient Greece - Hercules, Cerberus, Auron, Pain and Panic

    Fabled Countryside - Belle, the Beast

    The Main Protagonists - Sora, Donald, Goofy, BHK, Riku, Mickey

    The Antagonists - Pete, Hades, Jafar, the Organization

    The Battle Sytem:

    Kingdom Hearts II uses a whole new battle engine, built from scratch, instead of re-using the old one from Kingdom Hearts 1.

     

    The first and largest change in the battle system is the Drive Meter. As you defeat enemies in battle, your Drive Meter increases. Once it gets to a certain point, you can activate the Drive ability. In Drive Mode, Sora uses the heart of one of his companions to gaint he ability to wield two Keyblades at once. It's almost like some sort of fusion between the two characters. When Sora uses Goofy for this, his outfit turns red, and his speed and attack strength are increased. When Donald is used, Sora's clothes turn blue, and his magic and summoning powers are increased.

     

    Spells have also been enhanced. Fire is no longer a fireball that you launch directly at your opponent; it's now a ball of fire that swirls around Sora along with some flames. It may connect several times if the enemy is at distance; think Blizzara from FFCC but faster. Blizzard is now an ultra-high speed, pistol-style ice shot. Thunder now hits only one enemy, with a bolt that falls on the enemy (FF style). In the shortcut menu, you can use all four buttons now, as opposed to only three like in Kingdom Hearts 1.

     

    And from the abilities, we've seen so far, battles will be much more fast-paced, with a lot of focus on aerial action. They're now very similar to the battle featured in Another Side, Another Story and Deep Dive.

    The Plot, so Far:

    When the heart is filled with darkness, it eventually collapses in on itself and creates a Heartless, not unlike how a star does the same to become a black hole. This was covered in Kingdom Hearts 1. But what happens to the body of that heart?

     

    That same question was asked by Ansem in one of his reports in Kingdom Hearts: Final Mix, and the answer was hinted at. And with the release of Chain of Memories, we now have a concrete answer. The remaining body and soul are sent to the World In-Between, where, after enough time has passed, they will become a Non-Existant One, or in other words, a Nobody. A NEO/Nobody is essentially the same as a normal person, but with one crucial difference: it has no heart. As a result, your Nobody would essentially be you, but at the same time, not you. And, as the heart is where the light and darkness of a person is contained, a Nobody is neither, but instead walks the twilight between.

     

    Now, in Chain of Memories and Kingdom Hearts II, this all comes in to play. A new group of antagonists, the Organization, consists of 13 such creatures. It was touched upon in CoM and will be explored further in KHII.

     

    Also, the 'other side' of a person comes into play. Each and every peson lives in one of the four worlds: of the Light, the Dark, the Present, and the In-Between. Each of the worlds naturally contains that type of being. The World of the Dark contains Heartless, beings of the dark. The World of the Light contains beings of Light. As you can see, the Worlds of Light and Darkness are complete opposites. The Present World contains what we would consider normal people, each having both light and darkness. And the World In-Between contains those who are neither light nor dark. So likewise, the Present and In-Between Worlds are opposites.

     

    The other side of a person would live in the opposite world. Specifically, Sora lives in the Present World, so, his other side lives in the World In-Between. Namely, BHK. Sora and the Blonde-Haired Kid are equal and opposite, like two sides to the same coin. This will undoubtedly be very important in Kingdom Hearts II.
