* The trailer at TGS hasn't changed much from the trailer presented at DΣS3713 Party
* Some gameplay footage of Aqua was shown. She floats and uses the Keyblade without touching it, much like that of Sora's Final Form from KHII.
* Cutscenes featuring Aqua in Castle of Dreams as well as the Snow White World is shown.
* The Unbirths are said to be much quicker than the Heartless and are animated extremely well to be twitchy and nervous in appearance.
* The Playable Demo seems to be the exact same one from the DΣS3713 Party

KINGDOM HEARTS: 358/2 DAYS​

* It's planned for a February 2009 release window for Japan.
* Xion's face is fully revealed in the new trailer. Reports say her hair is black and is similar to Kairi's in style, except parted on the opposite side.
* Roxas, Axel and Xion are seen talking at sunset on Destiny Islands. The scenes of the three of them on DI are said to resemble past scenes between Sora, Kairi and Riku on DI

* It's revealed that Xion, like Roxas, is a Nobody with a "special birth".
* The conversation between Xion and Naminé is shown in greater detail

KINGDOM HEARTS: CODED

​

* There is a scene in the trailer where an Organization Member is in the King's Room, though whether or not this is in the data world, or the real world is uncertain.
* A person wearing the same type of coat as a member of Organization XIII appears, and from under its feet, the bugs spread. In this scene, the person says: "The world is damaged." After that, a trailer for Kingdom Hearts Mobile is shown. This enigmatic line is inserted: "A door connected to the secrets from this world."
* Coded had a surprise playable demo at TGS and it feels very nostalgic to the first Kingdom Hearts.
