At the end of Kingdom Hearts Sora, Goofy and Donald are on the trail to find King Mickey and Rikku. At the beginning of Kingdom Hearts II, you're controlling some Sora look-a-like named Roxas and dealing with a group called Organization XIII. Feels like something's missing, doesn't it?
Square Enix has filled in that gap with a remake of the 2004 Gameboy Advance game Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories. Chain of Memories tells the story of Sora, Rikku and pals between adventures while also introducing the world to Organization XIII, Sora's nobody Roxas and the enigmatic Nimene."
Kingdom Hearts merchandise might get a little ridiculous at times, but Square Enix has revealed one that makes perfect sense - a deck of cards based on the ones used in Chain of Memories.
Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories is memorable more for what it did differently from the original than for anything else.
VGChartz's Taneli Palola: "With the recent release of Kingdom Hearts III finally heralding the return of the bizarre Disney/Final Fantasy crossover franchise, I figured this would be a good time to look back at the entire series through its music. Overall, we'll be covering a span of almost 17 years, eight games, and several different platforms in this article."
