The trio awakens from their sleep and goes to Twilight Town. When the game begins, you will first take control of a boy named Roxas who wields a dual-Keyblade. He is trying to enjoy the remainder of his summer vacation with his friends, but he keeps having flashbacks of someone else's memories.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRoxas ends up meeting with Sora and the two learn they have a special connection with one another. The group then continue their search for King Mickey and Riku. This time, they will travel to new worlds and work with various characters from the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/group\/764\/walt-disney-licensees\/\"\u003eDisney\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/group\/176\/final-fantasy-franchise\/\"\u003eFinal Fantasy\u003c\/a\u003e universes. This includes worlds from not only Disney's animated movies but other movies as well, like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/group\/5840\/pirates-of-the-caribbean-licensees\/\"\u003ePirates of the Caribbean\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/group\/2600\/tron-licensees\/\"\u003eTRON\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn Kingdom Hearts II, Sora and his friends will battle various enemies including the Heartless from \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/game\/7341\/kingdom-hearts\/\"\u003eKingdom Hearts\u003c\/a\u003e, but also a group of enemies called Nobodies. Nobodies are \"nonexistent beings\" who are under the control of Organization XIII, a group of 13 members in black coats that Sora and his friends have reduced down to just half. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGameplay is very similar to \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/game\/7341\/kingdom-hearts\/\"\u003eKingdom Hearts\u003c\/a\u003e: the player controls Sora, with Donald and Goofy helping with their magic and attacks. Sora can use various magic powers as well as Summons, which will call upon the aid of special Disney characters that will temporarily fight alongside him. A new feature of combat are \"Reaction Commands\". Some enemies will leave themselves open during attacks, and if the player presses the Reaction Command button when prompted, Sora will take advantage of the situation, either turning an enemy's attack against them, striking from a defenseless side for extra damage, or avoiding an otherwise unavoidable attack. As the trio levels up and progresses in the game, they will gain new abilities that they can equip. Also, after Mickey meets the party, if Sora is KO'd, the player will have the option of controlling Mickey and defending Sora until he can recover.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAnother new feature is the Drive gauge. When filled and activated, Sora absorbs the strength of his allies and gains new powers, like long range magical bullets in Magician form or the ability to use two keyblades in Strength form. Using Drive forms will power them up, unlocking new abilities and allowing them to be used for longer periods of time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Gummi Ship returns, but the speed of combat during Gummi Ship levels has been greatly increased. While the path of the Gummi Ship is still out of the player's control, the ship can now attack enemies from the front, sides, and rear. Gummi Ship levels can be re-challenged at different difficulty levels, with higher levels offering a greater challenge and new enemy patterns. Achieving high scores in these levels rewards new Gummi Ship parts and plans.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*** Data by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.mobygames.com\/\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMobyGames.com\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e ***\u003c\/h3\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstyle\u003e.embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }\u003c\/style\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"embed-container\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/zCa8w6mrDJg\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstyle\u003e.embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }\u003c\/style\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"embed-container\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GIJxuQG5n44\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, minimum-scale=0.1\"\u003e\u003ctitle\u003e19e4b8a8-c26c-11ed-ab6b-02420a000194.webp\u003c\/title\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block;-webkit-user-select: none;margin: auto;background-color: hsl(0, 0%, 90%);transition: background-color 300ms;\" src=\"https:\/\/images.weserv.nl\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.video-games-museum.com%2Fen%2Fscreenshots%2FPlaystation%25202%2F1%2F50520-title-Kingdom-Hearts-II.jpg\u0026amp;output=jpg\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e☼\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, minimum-scale=0.1\"\u003e\u003ctitle\u003e19e4b8a8-c26c-11ed-ab6b-02420a000194.webp\u003c\/title\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block;-webkit-user-select: none;margin: auto;background-color: hsl(0, 0%, 90%);transition: background-color 300ms;\" src=\"https:\/\/images.weserv.nl\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.video-games-museum.com%2Fen%2Fscreenshots%2FPlaystation%25202%2F2%2F50520-menu-Kingdom-Hearts-II.jpg\u0026amp;output=jpg\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e☼\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, minimum-scale=0.1\"\u003e\u003ctitle\u003e19e4b8a8-c26c-11ed-ab6b-02420a000194.webp\u003c\/title\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block;-webkit-user-select: none;margin: auto;background-color: hsl(0, 0%, 90%);transition: background-color 300ms;\" src=\"https:\/\/images.weserv.nl\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.video-games-museum.com%2Fen%2Fscreenshots%2FPlaystation%25202%2F3%2F50520-ingame-Kingdom-Hearts-II.jpg\u0026amp;output=jpg\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e☼\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta name=\"viewport\" content=\"width=device-width, minimum-scale=0.1\"\u003e\u003ctitle\u003e19e4b8a8-c26c-11ed-ab6b-02420a000194.webp\u003c\/title\u003e\u003cimg style=\"display: block;-webkit-user-select: none;margin: auto;background-color: hsl(0, 0%, 90%);transition: background-color 300ms;\" src=\"https:\/\/images.weserv.nl\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.video-games-museum.com%2Fen%2Fscreenshots%2FPlaystation%25202%2F4%2F50520-ingame-Kingdom-Hearts-II.jpg\u0026amp;output=jpg\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Games A Plunder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49018683326625,"sku":null,"price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0493\/4841\/1553\/files\/unnamed_cceb2a3c-b4a1-450a-9dc8-8594fac4f076.jpg?v=1794608305","url":"https:\/\/gamesaplunder.com\/products\/kingdom-hearts-2-ps2","provider":"Games A Plunder","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
