Kingdom Hearts II 2005

Is it still worth playing?

Square Enix's 2005 action role playing game for the PlayStation 2, directed by Tetsuya Nomura, in which you control Sora in third person. A year after Chain of Memories, Sora returns to search for his lost friends while fighting the sinister Organization XIII. Fights ask for more than attacking. Reaction Commands are enemy specific attacks triggered with the triangle button at the right moment, and some boss fights require them. The Drive Gauge either transforms Sora into a Drive Form, most of which allow two Keyblades, or summons a Disney character. Between worlds you travel in the Gummi Ship, redesigned for this game, which has a shoot 'em up of its own, and Atlantica adds rhythm levels. Fights that keep changing what they ask of you still carry it today.
