Does that sound like new music to anyone else? (Outside of those who have seen / heard leaks, of course.)

It's new. We haven't heard a composition like this in any of the trailers so far.

Oh such a nice track. Must be used in an epic part in the game.

On a side note I wish I was able to do tricks like that when I used yo-yos as a kid, lol

They aren't too hard. It's just about being fast enough and knowing how to keep the momentum of the spin. It's easiest to practice the tricks without the yo-yo spinning so you know how to keep the form, and then practice with one of the spinning yo-yos to understand how it feels to hold it with...

I've revealed my secret past too much already. I should stop xD

My first thought was the Gummi Ship section when hearing that music.

Wish I had practiced more like that as a kid. I always ended up breaking the strings or hitting myself in the face XD.

I remember getting yo-yo’s in primary school with a purchase of frozen yogurt. Those were so flimsy and were quick to break so I hope the KH3 yo-yo’a are of a better quality.

The music was amazing though. I hope it’s a track that plays in Monstropolis!

I don't think anybody on this site knows how hiatuses work

Ooh, neat! Maybe I too can defeat heartless with a yo-yo one day.

That's a good thing...I think.

Cool I guess to people whom like yoyos? Meh, I lost interest in that yoyo stuff since elementary.

I'm still mad at GameStop for not offering this as a preorder bonus! Ugh! Stupid posters.

But man, the music. It's...

SOOOOOOOO

GOOOOOOOOOOD

That definitely sounds like a Yoko track. Perfectly orchestrated. It even smells like a Yoko track.

They aren't too hard.

All in favor of Spocknort performing the heart trick at the end say I. I.

Post-XV Shimomura did not come to play *u*

I guess if somebody found me a yo-yo, I could see if I remember how to make shapes.

This sounds a lot like the battle theme to me. And I hope it is, because I was slightly disappointed by the TGS Arendelle footage revealing that Arendelle’s reveal music was the field theme.

KH and yo-yo! That's two of my favorite things combined (I'm an amateur yo-yo player) ⸍⚙̥ꇴ⚙̥⸌

I wonder which yo-yo company SE collaborated with to design it. I'm guessing SE contracted with one of them and repackaged an existing model.

Here's Victor Sacchelli's performance in the 2014 World Yo-Yo Contest, in case anyone's interested.

Cool! that's like the best thing for you to have as a fan of both :O.
I like it the best when the yoyo is the farthest away from him.

Pretty sure this is the monsters inc. battle theme

Taking all bets as to why they removed the video.

edit: no one won the grand prize of “it was deleted so the KH twitter account could upload it”

Yikes, SENA. I guess they’re having trouble coming up with their own promo material...
