Update: More details below
You didn’t really think Square Enix would be keeping the “Kingdom Hearts 3D” title, did you? The company announced a semi-new title for the next entry in the Kingdom Hearts saga. The full title will be “Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.” A new trailer for the game was shown at Square Enix’s press conference a few moments ago, and we’ll let you know if and when it becomes available online.

– Yasue said the dev. team plans on making a KH game which was not possible to make previously

– Sora and Riku playable
– Character switching system
So… This is going to be a pretty big week for gaming, and Nintendo fans in particular. In case you are unaware of any of the events that will be taking place over the next few days, this rundown might come in handy:

What is it?
Square Enix’s conference to announce new games, and reveal information and trailers for previously announced projects. The event won’t just be for Nintendo systems, but Kingdom Hearts 3D is expected to be there. There could be additional surprises for the 3DS as well. All non-Nintendo news will be posted on Gaming Everything.
Coverage
I haven’t decided quite yet! The event is taking place at an awful time – 4 AM EST tomorrow morning (Tuesday). So, do I stay up until then? It won’t end until 5 AM EST at the earliest, and then there’s a stream at 6 AM. I’ll try to figure something out, though…
