Here is an overview of each game, via Square Enix:

Overview

Multiple Kingdom Hearts experiences are coming to new platforms, specifically:

  • Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX
  • Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue
  • Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind

These games tell the story of the “Dark Seeker Saga,” starting with Sora’s peaceful life on the Destiny Islands. You’ll witness how he meets Donald and Goofy, and follow their journey as they fight a final, epic battle against the darkness.

The graphics in Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX have been visually improved. Plus, if you buy Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind or the Kingdom Hearts Integrum Masterpiece collection, you’ll receive a special, exclusive Keyblade called “Dead of Night.”

What is Kingdom Hearts?

Surely everyone’s heard of Kingdom Hearts—it’s been around since 2002. Well, just in case…

What if you combined iconic characters from Disney and Pixar with beloved heroes from the Final Fantasy series, as if mixing action figures? That’s the basic idea!

Combine compelling characters, an epic storyline, and the unique creative touch of Tetsuya Nomura, and you have an action-RPG series that truly stands out from the rest.

That’s Kingdom Hearts.

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX

This compilation contains four full games, with two additional story experiences for good measure.

  • Kingdom Hearts Final Mix – The game that started it all, remastered with high-definition visuals, improved controls, a reworked soundtrack, and more. This is the game that introduced us to Sora—a brave lad with big feet and a bigger heart.
  • Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories – Set directly after the events of the first game, Sora, Donald and Goofy enter the mysterious Castle Oblivion, and stumble into an adventure that’s forgettable in the best possible way!… That’ll make more sense when you’ve played it.
  • Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (HD Remastered Cinematics) – This story focuses on Roxas, a new character with a special connection to Sora. The compilation features cinematics from the original game, enhanced with additional text and remastered in high-definition.
  • Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix – The second numbered game reunites Sora, Donald and Goofy in an epic adventure across some of the most memorable and unexpected Disney worlds in the series. Like TronTron‘s in here!
  • Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix – Prequel time! This game turns back the clock to before Sora ever wielded a keyblade and shifts the focus onto three new characters: Terra, Ventus and Aqua. It’s an emotional adventure with a wildly entertaining battle system—there’s a reason it’s a real fan favorite.
  • Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded (HD Remastered Cinematics) – This hi-tech tale takes Data Sora into the digital world to seek an answer about a cryptic message. The compilation features enhanced cinematics only.

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue

This game collection is a must-have for fans, featuring beloved characters like Sora, Riku, and Aqua. It builds up to the exciting finale of the series.

  • Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance HD – Sora and Riku take their Mark of Mastery exams to become true keyblade wielders. Things do not go as planned – if you thought your exams were stressful, you ain’t seen nothing yet.
  • Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage- – Made specifically for this collection, this episode gives you control of Aqua, following the dramatic ending of Birth by Sleep. It’s a short and sweet adventure that leads directly into Kingdom Hearts III.
  • Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover (movie) – A high-definition movie that goes back in the timeline even further than Birth by Sleep. It tells the story of the Foretellers – but who are they and what will they mean for the Kingdom Hearts series?

Kingdom Hearts III + Re Mind (Downloadable Content)

The epic story of the Dark Seeker Saga concludes in Kingdom Hearts III. The heroes, known as the Guardians of Light, unite for one last showdown against the forces of Darkness.

But first, Sora will journey to brand new worlds inspired by Disney and Pixar movies. He’ll join forces with Buzz and Woody to investigate a toy store, help Rapunzel uncover a dangerous scheme, fly through the city of San Fransokyo with Baymax, and experience many other exciting adventures.

The game also comes with the “Re Mind” downloadable content, which adds more story, challenging boss fights – some of the hardest in the series – and extra features like gameplay customization options and a photo gallery.
