Lots of news for you today, Kingdom Hearts fans! Due to FF sky and TGbus, we have more scans on the Final Mix of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep which you may talk about here on the forums. I've put them in video form for you below.

On the topic of screens, you're probably very used to seeing them now; it'll come no shock to you to learn that Famitsu has dished us with quite a few new ones featuring Terra engaged in battle with the fan-coined "Mysterious Figure", new additions to mini-games and, most excitingly, the heavily anticipated figure in armour. Check them out below; otherwise, you can come to our forums and see the translations that our translator krexia has provided! (Thanks to Amoriel for the info.)

Thirdly, HEARTSTATION has also posted some info on a recent interview with Tetsuya Nomura, series director, that you may not have heard. Here are some snippets concerning the new additions of the Final Mix, which you may read in full on our forums thanks to forum member KeybladeJ800.

Out of the new additions, the biggest is probably the boss battle with the person wearing an Organization coat from the North American version. [...] A number of additional bosses were added. [...] The armored character [is] even stronger than the man in the Organization coat. [...] When Director Nomura played against it, he lost every time; [it's] the strongest enemy of all the additional bosses. [...] As for the additional Secret movie, it's still secret.

Hm, very thought-provoking indeed? Who is this armoured character and what makes him so much more difficult than the fan-coined "Mysterious Figure", or more simply, the man in the Organisation coat? What's in the new secret movie? We hope to hear your thoughts!

Welp, with only a matter of a couple of weeks until Kingdom Hearts Re:coded hits Japanese shelves, Famitsu has really been dishing out on the juicy gossip and this time it's in the form of screens! There are 23 this time involving shots of the menu, the System Matrix and even the Scratch Card -- but most excitingly we get to see a fairly thought-inducing image of Bug-covered Riku as pictured above? What's going on here? Who's causing it? Will Riku ever wake up? Tell us on our forums! But of course, we've uploaded the screens to our new YouTube channel for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!

And finally, the Re:coded scans (long update, huh?)! Thanks to FF sky and TGbus we now have our hands on more information on this game; unfortunately it's too blurry to make out but you may look at them as presented in our video below!

As always, you can discuss these scans on our forums! Thanks for sticking with us through this update; I bet your eyes are tired! Until next time, friends!
