Changes[edit]

General[edit]

  • All titles from the original HD re-releases are present on a single disc.
  • All six titles run at 60 frames per second.
  • A new redesigned main menu to fit all six titles, as well as credits for both 1.5 ReMIX and 2.5 ReMIX.
  • Subtitles have been reduced in size to accommodate larger resolutions.
  • Changes on how certain PSN trophies are obtained to make things easier, though none of the trophies earned in the PlayStation 3 version transfer over to this game as the trophies from the PS4 releases are presented separately on the PSN trophy list.
  • The wallpaper designs for the PlayStation system's main menu are retained for the PS4 version by completing each game. However, unlike with the games in Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue, as these wallpapers were originally designed for the PlayStation 3 system, the images do not switch when the player moves from the lower menu to the upper menu. Instead, the outer coloring slightly changes by brightening or darkening as long as the player stays in the upper area of the PS4's main menu.
  • There is a sharing restriction guideline from the game selection menu by pressing the Triangle button.

Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX[edit]

Kingdom Hearts Final Mix[edit]

  • Donald and Goofy no longer attack the Pink Agaricus if the player presses Triangle while in its presence, making it much easier for Sora to land 100 hits on it. This change was necessary to fix the problem created by the original HD 1.5 ReMIX, wherein by changing Sora's special attacks to be bound to Reaction Commands, or Triangle, it would also inadvertently call his party members for help with the same input. As a result, Sora's teammates would attack the Pink Agaricus if he attempted to use special attacks such as Ragnarok against it, making it extremely difficult to achieve 100 hits.
  • Theater Mode was added as free DLC as of version 1.0.3.

Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories[edit]

  • The cards have been updated with new images of higher quality.
    • Ansem, Seeker of Darkness's face on his cards now resembles the one seen in his model notably from Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[edit]

  • Free DLC was released as of version 1.0.3 to extend Day 357 to include Roxas fighting against Xion's Final Form.
  • All related PSN trophies were removed.

Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX[edit]

Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix[edit]

  • The load time glitch that has been removed, fixing an exploit with Drive Forms.

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix[edit]

  • In the PS4 version, during the fight against Vanitas in Terra's scenario, his HP needs to be fully depleted in order to proceed.
