We already saw the offscreen trailer of Re:Coded, the remake of the Kingdom Hearts cell phone game. For those who don't know, Re:Coded is a remake of Coded for the Nintendo DS. It is being built based off the 358/2 Days engine with some elements from Birth By Sleep. You play as data Sora in an adventure to uncover some mysterious messages in Jimminy Cricket's journal. In the adventure, data Sora travels to many worlds from the other games, in their data based memory projections (not unlike Chain of Memories).
Here are some new screens to get your Kingdom Hearts blood pumping (replaced scans with clean pics)-

For those who missed it earlier this week, here's some of the details about Re:Coded-
- Re:Coded is being developed to allow more fans to experience the game, the DS was selected as most people have the hardware.
- Another reason for the hardware choice is that Coded was developed with the lack of analog in mind.
- The story will be the same as Coded, but aside from the event scenes the game will see many major changes.
- The game is targeting more casual gamers, and will have an adjustable difficulty setting like The World Ends With You.
- The design concept for Re:Coded is Coded+358Days+BbS.
- The co-director of BbS is supervising the battle planning for the game, while the same team will be handling the map design.
- The level up system in the game will be an expansion of the ideas from 358 Days (this may mean the panel ability system will return)
- There will be multiplayer elements, including avatars which can be unlocked featuring the characters from BbS, and Lightning from FFXIII.
- There will be a secret movie in the game.
- Currently 80% complete. [/p]
Re:Coded is currently on schedule for a release sometime this year in the US, perhaps nearing the holidays.
