Kingdom Hearts III English localization may have begun, voice actor tweets involvement

PSU writes:

"Actor and comedian Gilbert Gottfried has leaked extremely exciting news for Kingdom Hearts fans: his work as Iago in Kingdom Hearts III may have begun,and English voice recording could be underway.

That's because Gilbert Gottfried doesn't voice the talking parrot Iago, a role and persona he made famous in Disney's Aladdin, in the Japanese versions of the games. Those honors belong to Akira Kamiya and Tōru Ōkawa for Kingdom Hearts and Kingdom Hearts II, respectively.

There's a fair chance this tweet will be deleted before long, so here's the screen-cap:"

More likely is KH2.5 but I still hope it is KH3, though 3 is very unlikely.

FlameHawk3619d ago

I don't think it's KH2.5, they will probably use the same audio from the originals but I might be wrong.

videgamenext13619d ago

For hd remakes they have to re record the voice overs

Lucreto3619d ago

I am not 100% sure but I think there is extra content that never made it to The west like the Final Mix stuff.

KingKelloggTheWH3619d ago

I heard they are redoing the audio for the Handheld cutscene remaster

colonel1793619d ago

Definitely KH 2.5!

Impossible to be KH 3 since they aren't in full production yet. They are still testing and probably making art design and that kind of stuff. They won't be in full production until after Final Fantasy XV gets released.

showtimefolks3619d ago (Edited 3619d ago )

i think people who think KH3 is early in development will be surprised how far along this game is. I think we can expect it to be released within one year time

i don't know any inside info just stating my gut feeling

VlllAxelLea3619d ago

it's probably for the new scenes for recoded /':

WeAreLegion3619d ago

Gilbert has got to stop tweeting. It lost him the Aflac job. It's going to lose him this job, too, if he's not careful. Does he know how many people can imitate his voice?!?

darkstar183619d ago

just need this to come to Wii U..

AceBlazer133619d ago (Edited 3619d ago )

I really don't understand how the XB1 is getting this and not the Wii U. Nintendo is like literally the second home of the Kingdom Hearts series.If you were a Kingdom Hearts fan back in the day you needed the PlayStation consoles and Nintendo handhelds to get the full scope of the story.Kinda dickish on square's part honestly.

Hardware would be the stupidest reason to exclude the Wii U, I'd like to think Kingdom Hearts fans wouldn't mind taking a hit in the graphics department if it meant getting to play the finale to this amazing series, bit like they became fans over the graphical prowess of Kingdom Hearts.

sonerone3619d ago

probably the wiiU isn't strong enough to handle KH3, but what u saying is makes perfect sense

Squall_233619d ago

Kh 3 ? Seriously ? .. 100% it's kh2.5 ..

Final Fantasy XVI Has Finally Given Donald Duck A Worthy Opponent

For a long time, it's been widely accepted amongst Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts fans that Donald Duck is the most powerful mage ever to exist, mainly due to his use of the stupidly powerful Zettaflare spell towards the end of Kingdom Hearts 3. This spell is one step up from Teraflare, a spell which was used in Final Fantasy XIV that was so powerful that it completely wiped out the base game, giving the developers a canonical reason to let them bin everything and start again from scratch.

Now you're armed with this information, you can see how it was pretty surprising for Donald Duck of all characters to bust out Zettaflare and establish himself as the most powerful character in Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts lore. However, now that Final Fantasy XVI has arrived and delivered a whole new cast of characters, a new challenger has arrived to provide Donald with some much needed competition.

Final Fantasy's strongest magic user is Donald Duck, who never appears in a final fantasy game.

This Kingdom Hearts Boss' Unpredictability Gave Me Sekiro Vibes

Kingdom Hearts is filled with otherworldly boss battles, but only one stands out like a phoenix dancing with ethereal grace across the night sky. Before we embark upon a discussion concerning Kingdom Hearts' exceptional boss battles, it may be prudent to first reflect on the evolution of the criteria for appraising video game bosses. This criterion has undergone a major metamorphosis over the past decade; one that owes much to the profound influence of From Software and its iconic Souls series.

"Yozora is much more than a grueling secret encounter; he is a reflection of what Kingdom Hearts' bosses should be"

No thank you. If every boss in Kingdom Hearts was like Yozora, the series would be unplayable. That's not to say that they shouldn't include such challenges, but making them fundamental to the game would be too much. And don't say that this is what the From Software games are, because Yozora is absolutely harder than most of the bosses in those games. He is waaay faster, has a ludicrous number of abilities (and does them in random order AND can chain most of them together), and punishes you severely if you make a mistake. On top of that, you have to survive this onslaught for a really long time because of how much health he has. It's borderline too much - for me at least. Still, it's a stunning battle.

OMNlPOTENT355d ago

I agree, while I do really enjoy the Yozora fight, I think it's far too difficult to be anything more than an optional boss. However, I do believe that there should be more bosses that are in the same weight and size class as Sora, as the majority of those in KH3 were the best fights. The giant heartless bosses just aren't as enjoyable.
