Over at Japan where the Tokyo Game Show is taking the East by storm, Square Enix let loose another bombshell. This time, Kingdom Hearts games for the Sony PSP, Nintendo DS and mobile phones were unveiled.

The PSP game will be known as Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep which carries the time theme of "the distant past" with it. No revelation was made as to who stars in it but sources indicate that the hero looks a bit like the Final Fantasy VII series character Zack Fair. Gameplay will be similar in style to that of the Sony PlayStation 2 games with a single player adventure taking precedence.

The Nintendo DS, on the other hand gets Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. The oddly-titled project is poised to have Roxas at the helm.

The news source tells us that multiplayer game modes will be available. In what manner it will be done remains to be seen. Square Enix gives it the "time of the other side" theme.

Finally, there's another Kingdom Hearts game being developed for mobile phones called Kingdom Hearts: Coded. Its theme is "time has gone by," perhaps to indicate that it's set some time in the future. Gameplay is said to be based on the first two PS2 games.

That's all she wrote at this point as far as new Kingdom Hearts projects are concerned. Keep it right here because we've got an entire slew of other bug news lined up.

PSP version probably wins on graphics, sound and length fields.

Also from the scans, it seems that we're now getting another FF character. This time it seems to be Cloud's friend; Zack.
