The impressions continue to sweep in! As many of you were aware, Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance made a surprise appearance at PAX East along with titles like Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, Quantum Conundrum and Heroes of Ruin. Thanks to forum member TepidShark, we've received a heads up that Destructoid has gotten a chance to demo KH3D at the event. Click on the link to read their impressions, and here is a snippet below:

So here I am on The Grid, smacking foes with my Keyblade and collecting experience orbs. The fighting is pretty similar to previous titles in the series, with the exception of a new technique that allows you to quickly dash through the air, stick to a wall, then rebound down a different direction. This ability helps speed up the flow of the game and opens up new aerial offensive maneuvers, but the handling takes a little getting used to -- while zooming around, movement is a little finicky.

Come and chat about the impressions with us here in our forums! We're all looking forward to the release of Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance, so just remember:

Kingdom Hearts 3D is set for a July 31 launch date in the US. Play it because Jeff Bridges.
