The official Japanese Twitter has just announced that KINGDOM HEARTS Dark Road will be launching on June 22nd, 2020! Watch the trailer here.

Ever since I was young, I've had this recurring dream.
I wasn't myself; it's as if I was experiencing someone else's life.

Xehanort (waking up on the beach): That dream again...

Things can change completely without warning.
Even in an instant.

I really hope we get it about the same time. I wish I could understand what he was saying, particularly seeing the end of the X Keyblade War unexpectedly!

Can't really hear what he's saying at the end of the trailer, but this is the first part:

A link between Xehanort and Player? So much to think about today

I'm disappointed they didn't have Urd or Vor standing over Xehanort as he awoke. Boooo! You broke the tradition.

I can't play this game so I'm helpless with this one. But I suppose the thing I'm most curious about is what is it setting up for the future of Kingdom Hearts. Nomura does not make KH games for nothing, there is always a connection so I wonder what this is all leading too.

Maybe this is what happened between Ver and Sora: they linked hearts in order to fix Ventus'. Maybe Player's heart linked with Xehanort's in order to survive.

I BSed the last two lines. Couldn't hear exactly what he was saying in the first bit so it won't be super accurate, but this is basically what he's getting at.

"I don't know what changes each day will bring. But I'm taking it into my own hands."

I hope it’s fun. I‘ve always really loved this art style but I couldn’t get into chi. I’m honestly pretty excited to try this out though.

But across time as well!

I was thinking if Xehanort is a descendant of Player XD

Maybe. He's certainly a Player in MoM's scheme /badumtss

Well that WOULD answer literally everything about Xehanort's past/future knowledge in a single move....

"You've been here many times again and again like deja vu"
"You saw their experiences in real time"
"Xehanort is seeking out ancient keyblade wielders"
"Xehanort knows Marluxia, Larxene, Demyx, and Luxord are ancient wielders"
"It was destiny I met Ventus"

Xehanort saw the events of X/UX, the events the player experienced, through his dreams somehow.

Could Dark Chirithy be involved somehow if Xehanort sees it as a dream? I can't wait to see the start of this and the final chapter of UX
