About Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance for Nintendo 3DS
Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance sends Sora and Riku into the Realm of Sleep to take the Mark of Mastery exam and prepare for the battles ahead. Their journey crosses Disney worlds that have never appeared before, including the streets of Traverse Town expanded, the world of Tron Legacy and the musketeer era of Mickey and friends. The story carries major weight for the whole series, setting pieces in place for the confrontation with Xehanort. It is both a celebration of Disney magic and a vital chapter for longtime Kingdom Hearts followers.
Combat is fast and flowing thanks to the Flowmotion system, letting Sora and Riku bounce off walls, swing around poles and launch into enemies with acrobatic style. Your partners are Dream Eaters, colorful creatures you raise, feed and play with through touch screen interactions, and their abilities shape your fighting style. The game switches between Sora and Riku on a timer, with two perspectives weaving through the same worlds. Deck commands, reaction moves and big boss battles keep the action varied. On 3DS the depth effect makes the flying, falling combat feel even more dramatic and alive.

Buying it today takes a different route than it once did. The Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS closed in March 2023, and new digital purchases are no longer possible at all. Look instead for a physical cartridge at a retailer or a reputable second hand shop. Anyone who bought the game digitally before the closure can still access their purchased games as before.
A dream worth diving into for any fan of the series.
