The D23 panel is starting! Disney/Pixar Games director Nana Gadd and co-directors Tai Yasue and Tetsuya Nomura are on the stage discussing the process of choosing and implementing Disney worlds in the series!

The panelists are discussing keeping authenticity and helping players feel like they're in the movie.

Nomura says that they try to stay faithful to the original movies but will make changes when they receive requests from the film studios. He considers that the interactions players have with the Disney characters through Sora as central to #KingdomHearts.

They are now being asked about their favorite world to create and bringing to life. Yasue says his is playing King Mickey in Scala ad Caelum (which was show in today's expanded trailer). Gadd says hers is Toy Story in #KingdomHeartsIII, noting creating the original story set after Toy Story 2.
