'''''[[Kingdom Hearts]] coded''''' (yes, that is exactly how it is capitalized and punctuated) is set after the events of ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. While organizing the records in his journal from his travels with Sora and his friends, Jiminy Cricket's curiosity about the line "thank Naminé" results in him finding a message that he did not write: "Their hurting will be mended when you return to end it." To investigate this message, King Mickey digitizes the contents of the journal and goes into the simulated world to investigate, awakening a virtual Sora on Destiny Islands to carry out the contents of the journal to uncover the identity of "them". However, the virtual Sora encounters "bugs", which take the form of red and black blocks. The plot takes the data Sora through seven worlds from previous games.
 
''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'', a remake for the Nintendo DS, has been released in Japan and America and now Europe.

=== This game provide examples of: ===
* [[Absurdly High Level Cap]]: Averted in ''Re:coded'', which is a first for this series. As per usual you can finish the game in the Level 50 area, but the optional post-game system sectors pit you against powerful enemies, beating the final boss gets you the Oathkeeper keyblade that eventually gains the Exp Boost ability, and each level you gain is technically two levels if you put them on the paths between CPUs. Thus level grinding is nowhere near as tedious or time-consuming as past games, and the final optional system sector at Hollow Bastion has a recommended level of 80, but before that are level 70 and 60 sectors, so you can work your way up gradually.
* [[And Your Reward Is Clothes]]: The purpose of the Avatar section in ''Re:coded''.
Line 126:
* [[Spoiler Opening]]: The ''very first bit'' of the opening is the ending to ''Chain of Memories'', followed by brief interspersed flashes of {{spoiler|Terra's armor collapsing to its knees after the fight with Terranort}}, {{spoiler|Ven in the Chamber of Waking}}, and {{spoiler|Aqua with the ocean of the Dark Meridian visible behind her}}. It pretty much summarizes the events of ''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Chain of Memories'', and ''Kingdom Hearts II'' in a huge montage with lots of hugging, and concludes with the ''Kingdom Hearts II'' opening {{spoiler|with bonus foreshadowing of Naminé being the last thing you see}} before the title flash. The development team probably went ahead and assumed that [[You Should Know This Already|if you're playing this game, you already know this stuff]], but the ''Birth by Sleep'' ones are a little surprising, considering it's still fairly recent. Though, [[Fridge Brilliance|that's probably why]] they're such brief flashes -- if you hadn't already finished ''Birth by Sleep'', you probably wouldn't even realize what they are.
* [[Time Stands Still]]: {{spoiler|Jafar}} gains control over time after {{spoiler|Pete gives him a corrupted lamp.}}
* [[Unexpected Gameplay Change]]: Pretty much each world in ''Re:coded'' features one before the boss, such as a side-scroller, a [[Unexpected Shmup Level|shoot-em-up]], and a turn-based RPG; the game is normally an action RPG with ''Birth by Sleep''{{'}}s battle system, and something similar to ''Days''{{'}} equip/level up system.
* [[The Very Definitely Final Dungeon]]: {{spoiler|Castle Oblivion.}}
* [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]]: In a bit of a first for KH games, you are allowed to be an absolute ''dick'' if you want... once you enter {{spoiler|Castle Oblivion}}. The mysterious figure guiding you actually ''encourages'' this, reminding you that the people you're seeing are just hunks of data, and {{spoiler|illusions}}, at that. [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|Why should you feel bad for breaking their nonexistent hearts]]? Then again, being Sora, most of it is considered unintentional.
