- Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue

- Testsuya Nomura talked to Famitsu about the reasoning behind the title.

“This Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance compilation follows the previously HD work 2.5...and is worthy as taking its place as 2.6,” said Nomura.

M’kay.

Continuing, he added that the thinking is that the absence of Sora in Kingdom Hearts χ and Kingdom Hearts Unchained χ as well as the χ series in Kingdom Hearts χ Back Cover is the number zero.

Oh.

“Because Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep is 0.1, this is how the 0.2 came to be put in the latest Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep,” Nomura added.

“Thus,” Nomura said, “the 2.8 number appears from 2.6 plus 0 plus 0.2.”

Uh...

Well, I’m glad this makes sense to someone! Especially to the person who’s making these games. That’s important, you know.

The next KH compilation is going to be called KH π, if we keep going like this.

You know it deserves the GOTY.

Still releasing before KH3.
