Kh4 - Blog Posts

My boy Sora looking stunning!

I know this isn't mortal kombat related but I had to draw something for the kh4 trailer this series means a lot to me!

One thing I reaaaally want in KH4 is Riku stealth / search segments that draw on his fucking weird Dream Eater powers. Smelling darkness finally becomes a literal game mechanic

(I know the stealth part of Days sucked. I’m talking Metal Gear stealth, not Days stealth)

Okay, but what if in KH4, we get a Wreck-it Ralph world and it’s not Game Central Station.

Litwak’s Arcade. Sora goes to Litwak’s Arcade and his friends are inside the games looking for him, trying to reach him.

You play as Sora, who himself is playing as the Guardians of Light in various pixel art styles, in parodies of games. They’re trying to communicate to him, they can see him, but at the same time he doesn’t recognize them.

They’re trying to send little signals the best way they can. But if they don’t follow the arcade machine input, the Wreck-it Ralph characters will see our Guardians of Light as doing the equivalent of going turbo.

There could be parts that follow either group’s perspective, too. Maybe they try playing by the game’s rules at first. Then when it doesn’t work, we could follow the characters going turbo, exploring inside the machines themselves.

Here are some ideas for what games I would put the characters in below the cut:

Nooot sure Riku would be there if he’s also in Quadratum, but my gut tells me some variation of platformer like Donkey Kong or Mario for him— It’s also the genre for Wreck it Ralph itself, which, worldception makes sense if Riku is here. (This would also reference his running-up-building gymnastics in Another Side, the damsel in distress nature of Sora rn, and the urban setting of Donkey Kong).

I wouldn’t be opposed to Riku in a first-person shooter or stealth game either, depending on how his relation to Yozora turns out, he could parry Xemnas’ lasers like crazy in KH2

We already know MelMem is a rhythm game, so Kairi would probably be in a game like DDR or Guitar Hero if she were there. But I’d also dig seeing her in a collect-a-thon where we can finally level her up as a Princess of Heart

Donald and Goofy in either Duck Hunt or a gummi ship version of Galaga (low hanging fruit)

I can see the sea salt family playing as the Ghosts in Pac-Man!

I’m also imagining Roxas in Pong (“It’s just like struggle bat!”)

And I want Axel in Street Fighter because he’s always talking smack. Rematch between Lea and Ventus imminent

Xion could haunt the Photo Booth, alternatively— Sora snaps a picture of himself and we get a reversal of their relationship in Days.

I am also going to suggest Rampage using keyblade armored forms, either hers (since she’s huge wtf) or the Wayfinder trio’s

I could see Naminé being in Q-Bert, except completing the field with your colors could be somehow connected to memory reparation and data mechanics. I can also see her in a Kirby world, since the Kirby worlds tend to be arts and crafts themed, and she’s also technically a replica now

Ventus, Aqua, and Terra in Sugar Rush, except their cars are based on their gliders— it just makes more sense for them than anyone else, I think

Going to Hero’s Duty would probably trigger Aqua’s Land of Darkness PTSD, but this time she’s not alone and Terra (and/or King Mickey or Ventus) comes with her. This would be a really good game for both of them, actually, because Cybugs could be an analogy for darkness stealing your form

Joust, but it’s Cloud Strife riding a chocobo

Last suggestion? Dream Eater claw machine. I want to see Sora with Meow Wow plushies

they share the quadratum braincell and yozora is their exhausted babysitter
