The most recent edition of French magazine Role Playing Game featured a spread about the DKΣ3713 Party containing an article on both Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. All the information relates to what we heard over the party coverage, so none of it is strikingly new. Click below to view the scans and read the highlights!

358/2 DAYS HIGHLIGHTS
Winter 2008 Release

* Roxas moves in a similar way as Sora does
* You use R to lock onto an enemy
* Each completed mission can be replayed in the multiplayer mode (four players simultaneously) where Roxas is accompanied by three of the other members of Org XIII
* Other members of the Organization are playable in the multiplayer mode, and they will keep their specificities but with the DS obligations certain movements could not be preserved
* The XIVth member of the Organization is a girl, Xion. She manages the Keyblade which disturbs Riku greatly.
* The stylus will be used, thanks to multiplayer, as a way to communicate with your allies.
* "In spite of the poor graphic performances on the DS, and the low storage space, the story on the DS will be with "the height of all our hopes" because the developers keep pushing and pushing the capacities of the Nintendo Portable with each new update to its Hardware component."

BIRTH BY SLEEP HIGHLIGHTS
2009 Release

* The demo presented at the Private Party is susceptible to change and does not entirely reflect the future capacities of the game
* The special magic and attacks depend on the gauge (Focus Gauge?)
* Terra must, like Riku, resist the attracting power of darkness
* Each character possess their own techniques like this "Fatal Mode" allowing them to carry out more destructive combos compared to their normal attacks
* When the Focus Bar is full, pressing the R button switches it to "Shoot Lock mode" which targets enemies before they inflict heavy and powerful damage
* The Keyblades resemble more and more weapons and less and less keys. To lock the worlds is no longer really much of a topicality
* "The graphics are nice, seems the PSP has nothing more to prove. Final Fantasy fans shouldn't think of KH as just ' Disney and cartoon animals' because that is a bad impression."

Thanks to Kingdom Fantasy for the scans and thanks to Riku-Keyblade for the translations!

Amazing Scans and some old Info. But oh well. Nice to see it in the Magazine. And BBS is looking very very nice.

Nintandy · 08/27/08, 10:32 AM

Thank you for that =) it's good that magazines in Europe are writing such articles. Not everybody thinks to check the net for news on the latest KH game, and I'm sure that would be new for a lot of readers.

A nice little recap there.

Who would have thought that my [strike]hatred for[/strike] slight grasp of French would prove useful in terms of KH? :O

**SufferingAngel** · 08/27/08, 12:00 PM

...the "Updates to the DS hardware" scare me.

Audo · 08/27/08, 12:14 PM

xDDDDDDD.
I think they actually mean the Cartridge, because Nommy and co have talked about that before.

**SufferingAngel** · 08/27/08, 03:23 PM

v.v probably. I mean, it didn't make sense for the console itself seeing how for a new game I'd have to get a new console :[ (that is, rebuy one I had as opposed to buying a console I never had like a PSP)

Shattered Sunrise · 08/27/08, 07:35 PM

Amazing scans. Nice work.
Some old info though

**madammina** · 08/27/08, 08:28 PM

well, the thing about the keyblades and locking of the worlds is new. And I think (don't quote me) the pic of Cinderella and Ven is new too So it looks like he does eventually grow back to normal size. Thanks!
