Thanks to Neogaf's duckroll, we have the first tidbits on both Re: Coded and Kingdom Hearts: 3DS from the latest issue of Famitsu.

Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded
- Re:Coded is being developed to allow more fans to experience the game, the DS was selected as most people have the hardware.
- Another reason for the hardware choice is that Coded was developed with the lack of analog in mind.
- The story will be the same as Coded, but aside from the event scenes the game will see many major changes.
- The game is targeting more casual gamers, and will have an adjustable difficulty setting like The World Ends With You.
- The design concept for Re:Coded includes elements from Coded with Birth by Sleep and Days.
- The co-director of Birth by Sleep is supervising the battle planning for the game, while the same team will be handling the map design.
- The level up system in the game will be an expansion of the ideas from 358 Days
- There will be multiplayer elements, including avatars which can be unlocked featuring the characters from Birth by Sleep, as well as Lightning from Final Fantasy XIII.
- There will be a secret movie in the game.
- Currently 80% complete.

Kingdom Hearts: 3D
- This game is not a remake, it is a brand new entry in the Kingdom Hearts Series.
- This is the next stage of the franchise after Coded/358/BbS.
- Sora and Riku will be the playable characters in the game, and they will be visiting new worlds.
- There will be various hints relating to this game hidden in Re:Coded.
- There should be more information and announcements at next year's E3.

Once again, thanks to duckroll, this is the first big information folks, go ahead and discuss it on our bustling community!

We'll be providing more news as it comes!
