One of the major disappointments from Summer Game Fest, despite getting Revelation information, was the lack of Kingdom Hearts updates. Nintendo and Square Enix fixed that - a little - with this morning’s Nintendo Direct.

For the first time in years, we got to see some evidence that the game still exists, in the form of a new teaser shown late in the event.There’s not much detail to be had, still, and certainly no sniff of a release window; but at least the company confirmed that the game will be released to every major current platform, day-and-date for launch.

Elsewhere in the teaser, we get to see a number of snippets of cutscenes, mostly centered around battles with various Heartless, including one very massive one. Some of the combat appears to be live, as well, though none of these scenes had any interface layer shown on screen.

A quick cut through other characters is interspersed through the combat, confirming a few characters like Luxu, Luxord, and Strelitzia. A couple new characters appear as well, but what appears to be pretty thin so far is Disney representation; only Donald and Goofy show up in the new trailer at all, and only for the briefest glimpse. This tracks with the direction of the series and this particular game, though it might still be a bit disappointing for fans.
