KINGDOM HEARTS 358/2 Days, albeit not playable, has instead been transformed into a 2 hour and 50 minute series of cutscenes available to watch within Theater Mode. Many scenes that were originally text-based in the DS version are now full-voiced and rendered in high resolution. The scenes are organized in chapters, to give the player the option to view specific scenes at their pleasure. Roxas's Diary will be available at the very beginning, and the Secret Reports written by other members of the Organization will be so after completing the viewing.
