If there should be a riku story based game

[keyblademaster14]

i was wondering if they should make a riku based game like what he did when they got sperated from the island from sora and when he was in kingdom hearts door with mickey i can't get it of my mind if there should be one

[Mysterious]

it would be cool if they make one, but they're busy at million stuff other than kh

[Cool man]

No, it wouldn't. It would be cool in the Kingdom Hearts section, but not here.

[Gav]

It'd be to short for an actual game by itself. Maybe as a sub-chapter with a KH Game?

[Xugoh]

I think that the reverse rebirth/Riku side of chains of memory was good enough.

If they did a game like that who would he fight besides Sora Donald and Goofy? Theres no reference to the other characters ever meeting Riku.

[blinkboy211]

no cause then we play through a game of him walking through the darkness trying to find himself then fighting sora then him as ansem then helping sora. To much so no lets just leave it as sora the main character

[keyblademaster14]

ok i was just wondering cause maybe they could make some game that doesn't involve sora or kingdom hearts just him or like what they did with roxas in kh2 just a little bit of him

I like Riku better then Sora anyways.... Sora's too.... god um.... too.... cheery and happy for my taste. I like the darker side of riku and his mistakes that he lives with and has to eventually face. But as a game.... iuno it could be cool. But I agree with gungonX it should be like a sub-chapter thing.

Agreed. I'd like to play as Riku one more time...and I think we might, because Nomura wants to cover these periods of time:

1. Xehanort's Past
2. Period of the King's Absence
3. Roxas' time in the Organization
4. Period of Riku's Absence

So, I picture Riku and Mickey having a game for themselves, since their stories are very much connected.

Nomura's confirmed the next few games won't have much to do with Sora at all, since he wants to focus on other characters for a while.

If there should be a riku story based game...

...it should be called Kingdom Hearts 3.

[Crimson Soul]

That would be cool but it would kind of pointless to make now!

Whoa wait, was this in an interview somewhere? If so Link it up!

[SORA RULEZ!!!!]

Cool idea. Id like to play as him but now I think its to late to make a Riku game.

Here:Kingdom Hearts Insider - Interview with Nomura

More specifically...

Interviewer: So this game will be a side story?

Nomura: That's right. My own feelings are that I would like to give Sora a break from large adventures for a little while. So I'm thinking of making the next game's story focus on other characters.

And...

Interviewer: So, let's talk about this new story, which doesn't have Sora as the main character. What sort of story will it be?

Nomura: Well, I need to start with the story depicted in a Birth by Sleep. Aside from that, there's the story of how the King found his keyblade in the world of darkness and other things like that. Myself, one of the things I most want to do is to give Roxas more of a role to play. I think it would be interesting to flesh out more of the year he spent between his birth and disappearance. Or making Riku the main character, and writing about his desperate fight while Sora was asleep, and things like that. You get the impression that Riku summoned Roxas to a place of shadows, and that Riku is a master of shadows, so I would like to give him more exploration in the game.

I think it's safe to say the next game will be about the knights and Xehanort's past.

I agree with sora rules...It is late to make this type of game...although it would be kinda cool...But I think KH is enough
