Square Enix director Tetsuya Nomura has dished enthralling details on Kingdom Hearts 3's new featured worlds including the characters to join Sora in her upcoming adventure at D23 Japan earlier this month. Meanwhile, an exclusive trailer for the game was also unveiled at the special event revealing bits of details on new gameplay techniques, character models and a possible new setting.  

According to Design & Trend, a report from Famitsu which was translated by fan site KH13 offered some exciting scoops fresh from and closed door gathering where a private trailer for Kingdom Hearts 3 was showcased to an audience of selected few.

KH13 wrote that the said trailer revealed the 'Tangled' will reemerge "with a new flower Heartless." In addition, it showed surprising heart pumping action for those who attended the event. When the sneak peak got near to its conclusion, a scene with Sora, Riku, Kairi, Ven, Aqua, Terra, Namine, Roxas and Lea was seen which moved the viewers. Moreover, new combat mechanics and interestingly enough, a mysterious Nobody were also introduced. 

The reported translation of Nomura's comments on the video pertained to where the game stands at this point. Despite that many of the fans have hoped for a glimpse of the exclusive trailer and got disappointed that it wasn't, Square Enix explained that the game's new worlds weren't unveiled at the event stating, "we're moving into worlds that we cannot, at this moment, show you."

Although, this didn't stop the game aficionados to spot even the slightest reference from the new screenshot released and lead to conclude that 'Toy Story' is a possible new world to be included in next installment of the series.

What appeared to be equally interesting is that the private trailer has revealed a new Nobody. Nomura reportedly said, "I'm sure there are fans who are aware of its identity already". The scythe-wielding enemy originally lack distinctive characteristics, although, the weapon could be a return of Marluxia from "Kingdom Hearts: Chain Of Memories." KH fans can recell that Marluxia was the eleventh member of Organization XIII who was deceived by Axel.

Developed and published by Square Enix, Kingdom Hearts III is the next iteration to the Kingdom Hearts series slated to debut on PS4 and Xbox One sometime in late 2016 or early 2017.
