However, this is nowhere near as convenient as playing them through Kingdom Hearts: The Story So Far, which has both games remastered in HD on the PS4. To play these games on their original hardware, you’d need a PSP and a 3DS, respectively. Outside of the narrative, it offers a fair glimpse at some of the mechanics that Kingdom Hearts III will have. The game has had the largest impact on the overall story to date and frames things nicely. It also introduces key characters such as Aqua, Terra, and Ventus as you play through three intertwined campaigns.ĭream Drop Distance is the most recent game in the narrative, and its events lead right into Kingdom Hearts III. Birth by Sleep serves as a prequel to the entire series up to its release, providing context for the Keyblade War and Xehanort as a villain. If you want to make a gaming binge out of the series, but just want the essentials, your next two targets should be Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. The most important thing to remember about the story is that everyone is tied to Sora somehow, and Xehanort is bad. While the video does tell the story clearly, concisely, and in chronological order, it helps if you’ve played all or most of the games, but just haven’t played them all recently…in order…while taking notes…and taking the Kingdom Hearts History and Lore class at your local college. This video is dense: you’ll want to give it your undivided attention.
Instead of trying to summarize this saga in written form, I’ve got two video recommendations that can sum up the series for you.įor a thorough recap of the entire narrative, the YouTube channel Suggestive Gaming whipped up a 36-minute explainer video. Thanks to a buttload of spinoffs, the story has been made unnecessarily (but oh so necessarily) complex. There is a TON to digest before the release of Kingdom Hearts III. Don’t even get us started on Organization XIII and Xion. Much like Charlie in It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, fans may come off as crazy when explaining the differences between Heartless, Unversed, Nobodies, and Dreameaters. The Kingdom Hearts saga is first and foremost riddled with a complicated narrative and daunting lore.
