Kingdom Hearts Fan Shares New Footage of The Original & Obscure ‘Kingdom Hearts Coded’

Kingdom Hearts Re:coded is already one of the more niche titles in the Kingdom Hearts franchise. However, its original version, Kingdom Hearts Coded, is vastly more unknown due to being a Japanese exclusive game released for phones episodically from the end of 2008. Because of this game’s release structure and general nature, it’s rather difficult to find footage of this game, and the little videos it does have are of poor quality.

However, recently, Kingdom Hearts community member KHWaterblock shared new footage of the game’s demo in Olympus Coliseum, primarily comprising Heartless combat with interspersed dialogue throughout. In all honesty, this title looks far better than I thought it would for its platform.

You can view the Kingdom Hearts Coded gameplay below:

In Kingdom Hearts IV, Sora is in Quadratum with Strelitzia, a prominent character from Kingdom Hearts Union χ. This setting is an afterworld for the two characters following their tragic fates. Additionally, this new saga has been titled the Lost Master Arc. Further, some combat footage was showcased, with Sora performing Keyblade transformations against a giant entity that seems to be a Heartless? We don’t know for sure.

“The heart resides within the soul, which in turn is guided by fate to its rightful place” is a crucial phrase used at the start of this trailer for the upcoming mainline game.
