With the announcement of the new Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep for PSP, there has been a new trailer, as well as new voice actor confirmations. This trailer was originally leaked by Gamestop of all people and it was unknown if it was just a fandub or not. But it turns out it was real after all. Have a look-
As well as this, we now have some new voice actors confirmed for the US release, some pretty big stars which i'm sure many people will be happy with! Leonard Nimoy will be voicing Master Xehanort. Also on the list are Mark Hamill (who will be either Terra or Master Erauqs, not sure yet). Willa Holland should be Aqua (her voice is spot on for the Japanese version). And Jesse McCartney will be voicing Ven of course (he and Roxas are identical in looks and voice). And of course, James Woods as usual for Hades. So they've got some big stars there. Maybe they'll get Christopher Lee back as well since he did his voice for the DS game.
Birth By Sleep is a prequel, set 10 years before the original Kingdom Hearts. It stars three keyblade apprentices Terra, Aqua, and Ven who all play pivotal roles in the rest of the series. There's also the mysterious Master Xehanort who is also a central character and whose name you may recognize from the other games as well (although in a slightly different sense once you see). The story takes you to a lot of different worlds, trying to rid the worlds of a new thread- unversed, which are a new kind of enemy introduced for the PSP game that feed off negative emotions. They are very similar to the heartless and nobodies seen in the other games, and there is a reason they don't appear in the other games. As well as that, there is a mysterious masked keyblade wielder named Vanitas who appears along the story as an antagonist (but his motives and identity are only revealed at the very end). And also, Master Xehanort (and old keyblade master) has gone missing as well. All that and more are what the three protagonists have to face and uncover during their journey.
Birth By Sleep will be hitting the US on September 7th. We'll likely get a new trailer come this E3 as well as playable footage of the US release. As for me, i don't have a PSP now, so i already spoiled the Japanese version for myself and know everything already. Still, i really want to hear the epic US voice acting of some of our new stars.
