What is Dissidia: Kingdom Hearts ?
Dissidia: Kingdom Hearts is a dream of mine. You'd better read this only if you played Dissidia: Final Fantasy.
Dissidia: Kingdom Hearts is a fighting game involving elements from RPGs, including equipment, storylines, etc...
Scenario
Shining Prelude : Sora is in a world he doesn't know. He only remembers his friends somehow got to that world and he looks for them. He ends his quest facing a Darkside. When he is victorious, a cloaked figure appears near him and tells him that he has "so much to learn" and that he "knows so little". And so the true adventure begins.
Symphony of Fate I-1 - The Keyblade Master : Sora travels many worlds to find his friends. He somehow encounters Riku. The latter wants to test Sora's strength... They fight, and Sora wins, However, the mysterious figure appears again and catches an injured Riku. Sora runs after him, but he is stopped by a man in a black cloak, who introduces himself as "what never existed". That man fights Sora, but after being defeated, he retreats, commenting on Sora's potential. Unlock by completing Shining Prelude
Symphony of Fate II-1 - Descend into Darkness : Riku travels alone, much like Sora. But his goal is different - he seeks answers to his questions... What is the strength of the Heart ? Darkness or Light ? He finds the cloaked man, too. He proposes to give Riku "true strength", but Riku is afraid and refuses. The hooded man summons an Anti-Sora that Riku must battle. Later, Riku travels further and encounters the King - Mickey himself. The hooded man appears again, and then begins to manipulate Riku to fall into the Darkness. To stop the process, Mickey battles Riku, but the latter uses the power of Darkness in battle and is much stronger. The Symphony of Fate ends when Riku and the hooded man merge... Unlock by completing Symphony of Fate I-1
Symphony of Fate I-2 - Door to Light : Sora reaches now Riku, but he is now controlled by the mysterious cloaked figure, "Ansem". They fight and Riku is defeated. At the end, Sora manages to find Riku, but Ansem's power turns Riku's body into his own, and Ansem, with his true form, reveals his goals : to return everything to the Darkness, by opening the door to what he calls "Kingdom Hearts". Sora defeats Ansem once more... and he fades into darkness, promising that he will rise again from the darkness. Sora is taken by the darkness at the same time, and his fate remains mysterious... Unlock by completing Symphony of Fate I-1
