Though the trailer was the highlight of ''Kingdom Hearts''' presence at E3, the merchandise announcements were plentiful the following day. A [[Wayfinder]] pendant, a memorial Ultimania for the entire series, new [[Play Arts Figures]], and a soundtrack for the first remaster, ''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX]]'' were all announced. Several bundles were announced for the Japanese release of ''Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX'', in which the game will be available with the Ultimania, with ''Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX'', with the soundtracks, and with several other combinations.
 
Our E3 news doesn't end there! On June 10, 2014, E3 2014 began, unveiling playable demos of ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix]]'' at the Square Enix booth. The ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' demo included [[Beast's Castle]], while the ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix'' demo teased [[Enchanted Dominion]] as viewed through [[Terra]]'s story, [[Castle of Dreams]] as viewed through [[Ventus]]'s story, and [[Radiant Garden]] as viewed through [[Aqua]]'s story.


Later that same day, at 3:30 PDT, Tai Yasue, Co-Director of ''Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX'', held an interview as part of  a series of panels named ''Square Enix Presents''. In this interview, Mr. Yasue confirmed that the game was nearing completion and, despite it being a long-hoped-for addition to ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', there would be no multiplayer capabilities as part of the remaster. He also stated that the cutscenes for ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:coded]]'' had been extended to three hours, and two of those hours would be completely new.

[[File:Master Xehanort KHBBS.png|200px|right]]
Hello guys, I am MateusinhoEX, also known as MEX! On the first ever Keyblade Master article, I will be talking about some of the theories that surround the members of the Real Organization XIII and the Seven Guardians of Light.
First, let's have a little the history: in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance|<font color=#369FD9>Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance</font>]]'', it was revealed that Organization XIII's true goal was to gather 13 nobodies, take them all to the artificially created [[Kingdom Hearts (world)|<font color=#369FD9>Kingdom Hearts</font>]] and then fill them up with the same heart: Xehanort's one. Why? Well, as we know, Master Xehanort is obsessed with his search for the [[X-Blade|<font color=#369FD9>X-Blade</font>]], which he hopes to use to open the door to Kingdom Hearts.


In the old fairy tale of the [[Keyblade War|<font color=#369FD9>Keyblade War</font>]], it was told that the X-Blade was divided into 20 parts: 7 of light and 13 of darkness. So, Xehanort wants to gather those parts again to form it. He first attempted to join together two beings, one with a heart of pure light and one of pure darkness ([[Ventus|<font color=#369FD9>Ventus</font>]] and [[Vanitas|<font color=#369FD9>Vanitas</font>]], remember?). Didn't work. Then, he used [[Maleficent|<font color=#369FD9>Maleficent</font>]] to gather the [[Princesses of Heart|<font color=#369FD9>Seven Princesses of Heart</font>]], but, thanks to [[Sora|<font color=#369FD9>Sora</font>]], things didn't go well for him again.
First, let's have a little the history: in ‘’Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance’’, it was revealed that Organization XIII’s true goal was to gather 13 nobodies, take them all to the artificially created Kingdom Hearts and then fill them up with the same heart: Xehanort’s one. Why? Well, as we know, Master Xehanort is obsessed with his search for the X-Blade, which he hopes to use to open the door to Kingdom Hearts.


His new plan was to divide his heart, one of pure darkness, into 13 vessels, to clash with 7 guardians of light. Thus, Organization XIII was created. However, not all members were strong enough to serve Xehanort's plan. [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|<font color=#369FD9>Ansem, Seeker of Darkness</font>]] – during a time frame we are still unsure of, since [[Young Xehanort|<font color=#369FD9>Young Xehanort</font>]] states that he "saw [[Riku|<font color=#369FD9>Riku</font>]]'s experiences in Real Time", which indicates that it was sometime after he possessed Riku – casts away his body and is reduced to just a heart, allowing him to travel back in time and meet Young Xehanort, which, in turn, gives him the task to gather all of Xehanort's incarnations throughout time. This way, Master Xehanort formed the Real Organization XII, composed of 12 incarnations of himself, all with the same signature amber colored eyes. Sora was meant to be the 13th member.

Then, he used Maleficent to gather the Seven Princesses of Heart, but thanks to Sora, things didn’t go well for him again.


And here we enter the interesting part of the history. After the final battle between Riku and Young Xehanort in [[Where Nothing Gathers|<font color=#369FD9>Where Nothing Gathers</font>]], Master Xehanort himself appears to talk to him and [[King Mickey|<font color=#369FD9>King Mickey</font>]], while the comatose Sora was sitting in one of the chairs. He explains all his plans, and that the clash between the 13 darkness and 7 lights shall forge the X-Blade. Mickey counts: “Seven Guardians of Light? Well, for Keyblade wielders there's me, Riku and Sora... and my three missing friends.. and..." – he thinks on [[Lea|<font color=#369FD9>Lea</font>]], who he already knows is a Keyblade Wielder – "oh no!” Master Xehanort replies, “Very perceptive little King. But Sora, and another on your list belongs to me now. That puts you three guardians" – Master Xehanort doesn't count Lea – "short".
His new plan was to divide his heart, one of pure darkness, into 13 vessels, to clash with 7 guardians of light. Thus, Organization XIII was created.

After this Lea appears, saves Sora, and [[Saix|<font color=#369FD9>Saix</font>]] is revealed to be one of the Real Organization members. They clash, run out of time and each of the members goes back to their proper place in time. Riku saves Sora and becomes a [[Keyblade Master|<font color=#369FD9>Keyblade Master</font>]], Lea reveals he's a Keyblade Wielder and Riku takes [[Kairi|<font color=#369FD9>Kairi</font>]] to train. This is all we need to know to understand my theory.

But Sora, and another on your list belongs to me now. That puts you three guardians" – Master Xehanort doesn’t count Lea – "short".


Now pay attention to the bold quotes. For Guardians of Light, Mickey counts himself, Riku, Sora, Ventus, [[Aqua|<font color=#369FD9>Aqua</font>]], [[Terra|<font color=#369FD9>Terra</font>]] and Lea, making 7. But Xehanort says one belongs to him, which we can think means this one belongs to the True Organization XIII. This one can only be Terra, who was already possessed by him. Thus, introducing Kairi as the 7th can be true.

Sora and becomes a Keybade Master, Lea reveals he’s a Keyblade Wielder and Riku takes Kairi to train. This is all we need to know to understand my theory. Now pay attention to the bold quotes.

Thus, introducing Kairi as the 7th can be true.  
Now for the Organization: confirmed we have Master Xehanort, Young Xehanort, Ansem, [[Xemnas|<font color=#369FD9>Xemnas</font>]], [[Xigbar|<font color=#369FD9>Xigbar</font>]] and Saix as the characters we have seen with amber eyes for now. As per the previously cited facts, [[Terra-Xehanort|<font color=#369FD9>Terra-Xehanort</font>]] can be another member. The same goes for Vanitas, who also has the amber eyes characteristic. Another member might be the other version of Xehanort shown in the ''[[Kingdom Hearts III|<font color=#369FD9>Kingdom Hearts III</font>]]'' portion of the E3 ''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX|<font color=#369FD9>Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX</font>]]'' trailer (the trailer can be viewed in our Ansem Reports, on page 3). That gives us 9 members and no more of the original Organization members can be part of this formation, since none of them feature the characteristic amber colored eyes.


In summary we have...
Now for the Organization: confirmed we have Master Xehanort, Young Xehanort, Ansem, Xemnas, Xigbar and Saix as the characters we have seen with amber eyes for now. As per the previously cited facts, Terra-Xehanort can be another member. The same goes for Vanitas, who also has the amber eyes characteristic. Another member might be the other version of Xehanort shown at the KHIII portion of the E3 KH HD 2.5 ReMIX trailer. That gives us 9 members and no more of the original Organization members can be part of this formation, since none of them feature the characteristic amber colored eyes. In summary we have... Guardians of Light: Sora, Riku, Mickey, Ventus, Aqua, Lea and Kairi Organization: Master Xehanort, Young Xehanort, Ansem, Xemnas, Xigbar, Saix, Terra-Xehanort, Vanitas, the Unknown Xehanort and 4 other members. So that’s it guys. What do you think? Did you like my theory? Have a better one? Have ideas to compliment mine? Give your opinions over on the magazine talk page!!!

|divetotheheartwikitutorial=<center>Everyone knows that sandwiching a word with square brackets turns it into a '''link''', a Wiki's main method of connecting pages together. However, there are some extra bits that can be added into links to manipulate or alter them. This tutorial explains three special methods.<br>Let's begin!<br></center>
|divetotheheartwikitutorial=<center>Let's begin!</center>
#'''Disguising Links''': Maybe you need to link to an article that has an awkward title and you don't want to make your own page look unattractive. We can fix that problem by disguising links. This can be done by adding a vertical bar '''<nowiki>|</nowiki>''' and then typing whatever you want to make visible on your page. The example demonstrates how this works and publishing that coding will make only [[Donald Duck|Donald]] show up.<center>http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140630152919/kingdomhearts/images/thumb/5/57/Link_Tutorial_Image.png/300px-Link_Tutorial_Image.png</center>
{{-}}
#'''Linking to Sections''': Perhaps you only want to link to a specific section of a lengthy article. This can be done by adding a '''#''' after your link and then the section's heading, as shown in the example. Be warned, however; the link's entire coding will be made visible on your page so you may also want to disguise the link (as taught above).
<center>Everyone knows that sandwiching a word with square brackets turns it into a '''link''', a Wiki's main method of connecting pages together. However, there are some extra bits that can be added into links to manipulate or alter them. This tutorial explains just three methods:
#'''Linking to Categories''': You may find out that linking a category will cause the page to be ''added'' to the category instead. However, you may need to link '''to''' a category page and this can easily be done by adding a colon at the start of the link. For example, '''<nowiki>[[:Category:Kingdom Hearts II]]</nowiki>''' becomes [[:Category:Kingdom Hearts II]] as demonstrated in the image above. The colon method also works with linking to files.
[[File:Link Tutorial Image.png|300px|right]]
<center>And that's all there is to it! Now go forth and link like crazy!</center>
#'''Disguising Links''': Maybe you need to link to an article that has an awkward title and you don't want to make your own page look unattractive. We can fix that problem by disguising links. This can be done by adding a vertical bar "<nowiki>|</nowiki>" and then typing whatever you want to make visible on your page. The example demonstrates how this works and publishing that coding will make only [[Donald Duck|Donald]] show up.
#'''Linking to Sections''': Perhaps you only want to link to a specific section of a lengthy article. This can be done by adding a "#" after your link and then the section's heading, as shown in the example. Be warned, however; the link's entire coding will be made visible on your page so you may also want to disguise the link (as taught above).
#'''Linking to Categories''': You may find out that linking a category will cause the page to be ''added'' to the category instead. However, you may need to link '''to''' a category page and this can easily be done by adding a colon at the start of the link. For example, "<nowiki>[[''':'''Category:Kingdom Hearts II]]</nowiki> becomes [[:Category:Kingdom Hearts II]] as demonstrated to the right. The colon method also works with linking to files.</center>

Whether you are a Keyblade master or an aspiring apprentice, completing everything ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' has to offer is no easy feat. Perhaps one of the more difficult achievements is successfully completing everything pertaining to the [[Gummi Ship]]- specifically, the [[Gummi Missions]]. In this issue, I will focus solely on the third mission of the first Gummi Route: [[Asteroid Sweep]].

In this issue, I will focus solely on the third mission of the first Gummi Route: [[Asteroid Sweep]].


Unlike the medal gathering or enemy high score requirements of the first two missions, the third mission is completely score based. In addition, this mission raises the levels of enemies and gives you free reign of the camera. The greatest challenge to this mission is being in charge of rotating the camera. Although moving the camera is rather simple thanks to [[File:Button L1.png|25px]] and [[File:Button R1.png|25px]], not having the typical crutch of the camera on auto pilot takes getting used to. You're not truly alone, though, as you will receive a red alert beep hinting where you should position the camera. Your radar and laser/lock-on gummis are your best friend in this mission. Never take your finger off of [[File:Button Cross.png|15px]] as it may just cost you the mission. There are plenty of enemy ships to be destroyed in order to rack up the points necessary for high scores.

The goal and basic strategy of this mission is to slash-and-blast your way through as many enemies as possible, hoping to rack up enough points to earn an [[File:Icon Rank S.png|20px]] rank. There are several larger enemies that will appear, such as the Spider, as well as red and gold enemies which yield higher points. While you should try to go after these types of enemies, it is important to note that a gathering of several smaller enemies should not be ignored in order to remove a single enemy. Regardless of how many points they release, the rule of thumb for this mission is ''quantity not quality.''

A red [[Spider]] will appear twice in this level. However, unlike before, the enemy will not appear by itself. Instead, the Spider will either: show up by itself then be followed by a giant swarm of enemies, or spawn in the middle of a group of enemies. This makes destroying both the Spider and other enemies very difficult. Instead of focusing your forces on the Spider, shift the camera around when needed and blast the smaller enemies.  However, if you can, take out the Spider to receive a hefty amount of points. When both the Spider and massive waves of enemies are flooding you, keep shooting them down, simultaneously using barrel rolls to avoid their attacks. It is during these moments that you can potentially fail the mission, either by a [[Game Over|game over]] or losing mission points due to taking damage. If your ship gets surrounded, unleash Full Auto and rotate constantly. This increases your chances of eliminating key enemies that trigger the red and gold enemy ships.

This is a hard mission, even for stronger level ships. In order to get the higher rankings, you must use a higher leveled Gummi Ship with a hearty arsenal of weapon gummis. The use of [[Teeny Ship|Teeny Ships]], while optional, could mean the difference of earning a rank. Another option is a custom Gummi Ship. While most would prefer a well rounded ship, an exception in this case will be rewarded. The bulk of your Gummi Ship should be a variety of [[Projectile Gummi|projectile]] and [[Lock-On Gummi|lock-on]] gummis. With patience and a strong weapon-loaded Gummi Ship, you will eventually earn the set goal of one million points.

|markofmasteryexamreview='''Another Guardian of Light''' is the secret ending for ''Dream Drop Distance'' so this review is bound to contain spoilers. The nearly-four minute video effectively sets up for ''Kingdom Hearts III'' so let's take a look.


[[File:KH3D icon.png|center]]
[[File:KH3D icon.png|center]]


The video starts with a few cryptic scenes with [[Xehanort|<font color=FCFF33>Xehanort</font>]] in his youth, followed by [[Aqua|<font color=FCFF33>Aqua</font>]] in the [[Dark Margin|<font color=FCFF33>Dark Margin</font>]], and continues onto a conversation between [[Donald|<font color=FCFF33>Donald</font>]] and [[Goofy|<font color=FCFF33>Goofy</font>]] before concluding with a meeting between [[Mickey Mouse|<font color=FCFF33>King Mickey</font>]] and [[Yen Sid|<font color=FCFF33>Yen Sid</font>]]. Before we continue, why not take a look at the full ending below?
The video starts with a few cryptic scenes with Xehanort in his youth and then Aqua in the Dark Margin, later goes onto a conversation between Donald and Goofy, and then ends with a meeting between Mickey and Yen Sid. For me, the secret ending's main weakness is the fact that it consists entirely of dialogue. Although this helps build the tension for the revelation at the end, it makes Another Guardian of Light pale in comparison to the pizazz of previous secret endings, such as The Gathering.


<center>{{#widget:YouTube|id=_4MzZ34DO3c}}</center>
However, the ending slightly redeems itself by leading on a strong plot. While the Xehanort scene seems to be there purely to start fan discussions among the KH theorists, the conversation between Donald and Goofy neatly ties a few loose ends with the mention of Lea's return to Radiant Garden. The "meat" of the ending is the counsel with Yen Sid and it delivers a satisfying introduction to the intriguing concepts of the "Seven Guardians of Light" and "Thirteen Darknesses". The climax of the scene is the revelation that Kairi could wield the Keyblade, a topic that many had theorised beforehand.

'''Final Opinion''': Another Guardian of Light doesn't live up to previous secret endings but it introduces intriguing story concepts and, at the very least, sets up for ''Kingdom Hearts III''.

[[File:Kick Dive KH3D.gif|200px|thumb|Flowmotion in action!]]
#[[File:Icon Movement KHBBS.png]] '''Flowmotion''': Introduced in the most recent ''Dream Drop Distance'', Flowmotion indulges players with the freedom of locomotion and thrill of motion attacks. After soaring the landscape with Flowmotion, I began to look at walking pedestrians with pity.

#[[File:Heartless Emblem.png|10px]] '''Dark Mode''': Most disliked ''Chain of Memories''<nowiki>'</nowiki> slow-paced card system, which made Dark Mode all the more refreshing. Not only did Dark Mode have powerful attacks, the increased mobility allowed players to break the mundane routine that battles could become. What's more, Dark Mode was a balanced system that didn't ruin the game's difficulty, like Drive Forms did.

#[[File:Drive_Orb KHII.png|10px]] '''Drive Forms''': In my opinion, ''Kingdom Hearts II''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s combat isn't the most challenging. But with Drive Forms that doesn't matter, since the stylish costumes and Keyblade flair are enough to forgive any OPed aspects

But with Drive Forms that doesn't matter, since the stylish costumes and Keyblade flair are enough to forgive any OPed aspects  
#[[File:Icon Attack KHBBS.png]] '''Deck Command''': With three games implementing them, Deck Commands have been well-established in the series. ''Dream Drop Distance'' and ''Re:coded'' had their twists, but the initial ''Birth by Sleep''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s system remains the best, adding the deepest strategy and precision that prevented the game from becoming a button masher.

They were an interesting spin on existing RPG elements and formed a subtle mini-game that required you to slot the panels together like a jig-saw puzzle.

Cof: If the final mixes were an option, it would definitely be ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', but since the closest would be ''Kingdom Hearts II'', my vote goes towards that one. It introduced the organization and gave them really fun battles. Plus, it gave you Axel!! Some of my favorite non-ORGXIII battles are in that game too, so that's where my vote is going!

I loved him in ''Final Fantasy XII'', but then he would have to have Fran with him too, so I am cheating a bit. Or maybe Sazh [from ''Final Fantasy XIII'']. Either one would do!
