We've known since its announcement that the wait for Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded would end up being pretty short. Today, we found out just how short, as Square Enix announced an October 7 release date for Japan.
That's just for Japan. In America, Re:Coded is currently with a TBA date. We imagine that at the very least we'll have to wait for Birth by Sleep to hit here first. The PSP title, available in Japan since January, is due for release here on September 7.
Re:Coded is a remake of Kingdom Hearts Coded, the cell phone project that was announced alongside Birth by Sleep and DS's 358/2 Days (yes, we love the names too). Square Enix is making some major changes for the DS, which will now feature the Birth by Sleep battle system.
