I haven't quite got the fine points down, like...when, or where... It just kinda kicks in whenever it wants to.

Kingdom Hearts Re:coded is an upcoming remake of Kingdom Hearts coded that will be released on the Nintendo DS.[2] It is one of the two titles being worked on by the Kingdom Hearts team, as hinted at in the Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Ultimania.[3] Like Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories, there will be many additions to this game from the original, including adjustable difficulty settings, multiplayer elements, and the addition of a new secret movie.[citation needed] It will be released on October 7th 2010 in Japan.[1]

Synopsis

After the conclusion of Kingdom Hearts II, Jiminy Cricket finds an entry in his journal that he didn't write: "Their hurting will be mended when you return to end it." [4]In an attempt to learn where it came from, King Mickey digitizes the journal, and creates Data Sora in order to explore it. However, there are mysterious bugs in the data, which seem to be intricately linked to the enigma of the journal.[5]

Gameplay

The gameplay in Kingdom Hearts Re:coded is largely the same as in Kingdom Hearts coded, focusing on the manipulation of Bug Blocks to solve puzzles and reach new areas, but also incorporates the Deck Command system used in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, which allows players to design "decks" of various combat abilities to use against enemies. Gameplay videos seem to indicate Kingdom Hearts Re:coded will make use of the same game engine employed in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, the previous DS game in the series.
