Summary
Final Mix offers increased challenges and the opportunity to experience English voice acting. Built on the enhanced US version, the game features additional boss fights, new game modes, and even more mini-games. Believe you've mastered the Key Blade completely? Think again. Hidden episodes are available to unlock, and in single-player mode, you'll encounter a mysterious figure who holds secrets about the mighty Kingdom Hearts. The controls and D-Link have been refined for smoother gameplay, allowing you to collect stickers as you travel. Nine new missions await completion, along with tough new bosses in multiplayer mode. These adversaries aren't just rulers of their worlds—they may be the worlds themselves. Now you can face the giant whale that swallowed Pinocchio's ship. Kingdom Hearts is reborn—grab your Key Blade and begin your adventure anew.
Storyline
Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep starts in the Land of Departure, where three Keyblade wielders and close friends—Terra, Aqua, and Ventus (often called Ven)—train under Eraqus to become Keyblade Masters. To reach this rank, Keyblade Apprentices must complete the Mark of Mastery exam upon reaching adulthood. Terra and Aqua take the test together, but while Aqua succeeds, Terra is considered unworthy of becoming a Keyblade Master due to the overwhelming darkness in his heart. Soon after, strange creatures known as the Unversed appear across other worlds, and another Keyblade Master, Xehanort, vanishes without explanation. Terra is tasked with eliminating the Unversed and locating Master Xehanort, who had previously urged him to harness the darkness within to gain the strength needed to master the Keyblade. Ven, on the other hand, is persuaded by Xehanort's enigmatic apprentice, Vanitas, to follow Terra—contrary to Eraqus's wishes. Aqua is sent by Eraqus to monitor Terra and prevent him from succumbing to darkness, as well as to ensure Ventus returns to the Land of Departure.
