So a mix of Kingdom Hearts, Super Mario Odyssey and Kirby, made by the creators of Sonic and Nights from SEGA, from the company Square Enix, presented by Nintendo. What kind of sorcery is this ? ( love it btw )
I'm predicting that the entire plot is in fact made by balan, even the obvious villain character is just a creation if balan for the sake of giving the kids a foe to defeat
The idea is realy cool but the graphics need some polishing and the light engine looks like ps 2 stuff and the stage/characters look like it's made with 4 polygons But still I expect some super mario odeycy level of gameplay from it looks awesome
With the (presumably eager) assistance of character designer Naoto Ohshima, the mind behind the designs of, among others, Nights and Sonic the Hedgehog. All they're missing from the _Nights Into Dreams_ team is Takashi Iizuka, the only one Sega somehow hasn't kicked to the curb yet.
it feels like I'm watching a trailer for an animated movie. everything looks good the gameplay, soundtrack and all edit: i'm almost deceived til i finally played the demo. don't buy this
I feel like a major plot point in this game is going to be that Balan was a man who suffered from many great tragedies, but recovered, and now wants to try and help other people recover from their bad moments.
This gives me a lot of old-school SEGA vibes (and how wouldn't it when it's directed by none other than freaking Yuji Naka) mixed with a dose of Wario World (anyone remember that game?) and that's amazing. It pretty much looks like the unofficial next-gen NiGHTS game that fans of that franchise have been dreaming about for years. Great job Square! (and thanks for bringing it to Switch too).
So you're telling me that NiGHTS, Mario Odyssey, Kingdom Hearts, and Billy Hatcher had a gangba- I mean, they crossed over? WOW! I can't wait for this game!
The concept of NiGHTS mixed with the gameplay of.,,, Hat in Time? Kingdom Hearts? Whatever this looks great edit: haha ahahaha hahhhahahaAHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAH :(
It has two of the three creators of Sonic on this game. Yuji Naka and Naoto Ohshima (Character Designer) The other one is Hirokazu Yasuhara but he isn't on this game.
That song at the end of the trailer will probably play at the great cinematic climax. It will bring a tear to the player's eye along with a feeling of wonder and accomplishment.
Defiantly see that. The villain is either defeated or reformed the song kicks in with a heart to heart talk with Balan and then a big musical number dance with all the characters, costumes and possibly even enemies you fought throughout the game. Then as the player leaves before Balan closes the doors, he gives one last bow and bids you fair well and thanks for a wonderful journey.
Everybody's all up in here about Square and Sega, and how this looks like a copyright safe Nights game and all and meanwhile I'm just happy to see interest in a new AAA 3D Platformer
@@kurokawaii8362 Also Ristar. Ristar should never be forgotten. Or Billy Hatcher. Or Chu Chu Rocket. PSO is safe at least. We still get PSO even without Naka.
Is amazing that for once, Nintendo isn't the only AAA studio working on _good_ platformers, 2D or 3D. "But Sega is making the Son-" Read again the sentence. First Octopath Traveler and now Balan WonderWorld, Square Enix is returning to the roots of gaming and I don't know why xD
Wait so i wasnt the only one where it reminded them of Madoka Magica? Like theres a gried seed kinda lookin thing, and the bosses cause despair and sadness like the witches.
Based on the trailer, this game gives me this whimsical feeling. The same feeling Sonic and Nights would give me as a kid. I'm super excited for this game and I hope Yuji Naka continues to make games like this in this challenging time.

To be honest, this was the most interesting game announcement out of most of Xbox's presentation and at the time I questioned why this was only shown at the pre-show. This is like a nice mix between NiGHTS & Billy Hatcher.
As well it _should_ -- Yuji Naka, the director, was in charge of _Nights Into Dreams_ back in the day, and the character designer, Naoto Ohshima, was the guy who created the Nightmarens' designs.

how make a 3d platform game interesting: -give a main of transport -cool character design -land with giant objects (food for example) -an asset of moves that depends on what character does have -hat
Good 3D platformer: 1. Charm in the character design 2. Charm in the animations. 3. Great sense of movement. 4. Beautiful and distinct explorable maps. 5. Hats.
This looks pretty cool. Some of the animation looks a little stiff at times but seems like an actual adventure. I’m excited to see what this game is all about

@@Kougeru It's not a graphically intense game so I'm sure it'll be just fine. Besides, stuff like this is best fit for a Nintendo platform, don't you think?
I'm very happy to see this; Its like Nights: Into Dreams and Nights: Journey of Dreams. I had fun playing those two games, so this is almost like the sequel that I'll probably never get. I'll keep my eye on this!
Why do I feel like this is on a disney VHS tape preview? “Get it before it’s locked in the Disney Vault forever!” “And now your feature presentation: Mulan 2!”
Everyone: hey SEGA could you make new Nights game? SEGA: nope! Square Enix: We got you fam! Everyone: Hey SEGA what about a new JSR? SEGA: Nope! Team Reptile: We give you Bomb Rush! SEGA: . . . Damn...I wish we could've thought of those.
Luis Angel those are only really published by sega. Made by Atlus.... sure while they count as Sega games.... these aren’t the sega games we’re talking about.
The Bosses, main antagonist (and possibly the plot) feel similar to NiGHTS as well. Both NiGHTS and Balan are dream like protecters who the player protagonists (one boy and one girl) helps to stop a villain who creates nightmares and despair.
For people saying this is a NiGHTS spiritual successor... aside from Balan being like NiGHTS in some ways, what about the gameplay? Was NiGHTS more than just playing as the character in the title, flying through rings?
@@Bestjokermain No need to be a Dickenschmitz about it. All times I looked at NiGHTS gameplay in the past, it was all I saw: NiGHTS flying through rings. That became the basis for Special Stages in Sonic Robo Blast 2.
Rose Supreme lmfao don’t listen to this guy AT ALL, Flying through rings was basically all you ever did in that game. There was some parts you could maybe call platformer but it was definitely majority flying
Well yes NiGHTS is more than that, but none of it is like this. It’s like NiGHTS more in aesthetic, setting and story set up with two opposite gendered kids exploring a dream world. I don’t think it has to do with gameplay at all
Why does the narrator's voice remind me of the ads at the beginning of DVDs?

Square: fine, I’ll do it

What do you mean with nights?
NiGHTS used to be one of Sega’s most popular franchises, but they haven’t touched the IP in years. Kinda like Nintendo with F-Zero.
When they couldn’t get the rights to nights they made they’re own
Stop making the same "joke". Please stop it. PLEASE
So a mix of Kingdom Hearts, Super Mario Odyssey and Kirby, made by the creators of Sonic and Nights from SEGA, from the company Square Enix, presented by Nintendo.
What kind of sorcery is this ? ( love it btw )
not everything has to be similar to other games dude, thats a stretch if ive seen one
Daniel Requena I think he was just joking
@@ValentinF23 Let's hope so.
This is moreso a spiritual successor to Nights Into Dreams, it even has the same directors
Looks Like Familiar For Sonic And Welcome To The Hazbin Hotel
That wink at the end just solidified Balan as the secret final boss.
I haven’t played the game but I can easily assume
More of 'actual' final boss
My first thought after seeing him was that he looked like Arsene but more cartoonish and a lot less devilish
Im imagine if someone got the game and say this: well this looks like a friendly character
I'm predicting that the entire plot is in fact made by balan, even the obvious villain character is just a creation if balan for the sake of giving the kids a foe to defeat
This just looks like "NiGHTS as told by Square Enix"
I'm into it
I thought the same thing but Square Enix is poison to me soooo, nope.
The guy who worked on Sonic games and Nights on Dreamcast is part of the team creating this game. Definite Nights vibes.

Not Smash, but as part of a Mario game, like the White Mage in Mario Sports Mix, maybe one day SE would make a new Mario game and include him.
@@juanrodriguez9971 it would be interesting either, I wouldn't complain if he joins a mario game
@@unexo6782 It could be really cool if Mario Kart 8 Deluxe gets a DLC of Square Enix content, with characters like this guy of the white suit and Vivi, the black mage from FF9, both could fit really well in that game.
@@juanrodriguez9971 Hey! That would be amazing
This feels like NiGHTS meets Kingdom Hearts and Billly Hatcher and The Giant Egg.
I searched for a comment like this
The creator of NiGHTS worked on the project
literally the exact 3 things i was thinking of
I'm glad other people remember billy hatcher too
@@MarMar5654 I was just playing Billy Hatcher the other day, they need to either rerelease this game or give it a sequel, maybe both?
I’m getting big “nights: into dreams” vibes from this...
That might be because one of the designers from Nights, Ohshima, is main character designer in this.
I feel like sega is going to sue Nintendo for this because this does give a nights journey of Dreams vine
So I'm not the only one to feel that way.
Good to know it's not just me.
@@drascin *WHAT?!!* That explains so much.
@@RoyalFreedom499 Actually, it's a Square Enix game. So it's SE that Sega would be suing.
Finally! Square is giving the fans what they want: A Mario/Sonic/Crash clone for people who still like the Kingdom Hearts aesthetic.
...oddly specific
Or NIGHTS
OR THOSE SWEET N64 ERA VIBES
@@Shadowproto17 or Klonoa.
@@mastanvx All these Nintendo Fans don't know this gives people Dreamcast and Sega Saturn Vibes -_-
I'm down for it. There aren't enough new 3D platformers these days so this is appreciated.
watches the xbox showcase
"hey this game looks cool I might buy an xbox for it"
nintendo: "yeah about that"
if it ain't 60 FPS and looking decent, might as well still get it on XBOX/PC
Totally happy this isn’t just an xbox exclusive!😄
@@Kougeru It's not a graphically intense game so I'm sure it'll be just fine. Besides, stuff like this is best fit for a Nintendo platform, don't you think?
Poor Xbox can't catch a break. Right when you think they're gonna have an interesting exclusive, BAM! Nintendo announces it on thier platform.
just get it on pc, this looks like a less refined Hat in time, comparing it to the other trailer
80+ costumes. This one's gonna be a long one. I can't wait to experience all of it.
Yipes
@@andrewandrews8073 Yeah, this aged very well... I wish it was good.
When a tornado evaporated bob the builder I cried. Just me?
Hopefully thomas the dank engine and gardfielf comes to the rescue :(
Sad anime moment :(
Lol holy crap that's hilarious
When the firefighter danced.. I felt that 😔
Bob may know how to fix stuff but one thing he cannot fix is our hearts
Now available in DVD and Blu-ray
I'm very happy to see this; Its like Nights: Into Dreams and Nights: Journey of Dreams. I had fun playing those two games, so this is almost like the sequel that I'll probably never get. I'll keep my eye on this!
Did you have fun playing this game?
@@irvancrocs1753 No, unfortunately. I never got a chance to play this game. =(
I hope this game features some kind of virtual pet system.
Lol this is supposed to be Nights? It doesn't look a-
/Gets halfway through the trailer
oh.
OH. I SEE IT NOW.
Those bosses really nailed it home
is that white hat a part of its face or can it be taken off?
Hmmm.
Bosses
Looking back this
Yikes-
Talk about destroying your own positive word of mouth.
Soundtrack is like the Mario Odyssey theme at the beginning.
complete ripoff.
I noticed too 🤭🤭🤭
I thought the same
Yeah, that's almost lawsuit-worthy with how blatant it is
John Naylor and Nintendo heard it 🤣
This is the fourth time I've seen this trailer. I want this game so BADLY!
Same
Same
Damn
It's amazing how a good trailer can make a bad game look actually good
My mind went right to Nights: Journey into Dreams when I saw this trailer.
NiGHTS be like "IT'S TIME TO JUUUUUUUMP UP IN THE AIR~"
This comments section aged well
I like them in this state, it's like preserved history or something
THE DESIGNS SCREAM OF NiGHTS AND BILLY HATCHER AND I AM HERE FOR IT
" every moment is an adventure "
Me sitting at home doing nothing: are you sure about that
JOHN CENA
Well you aren't in Balan Wonderworld now are you
It can be.
Why do I feel like this is on a disney VHS tape preview?
“Get it before it’s locked in the Disney Vault forever!”
“And now your feature presentation: Mulan 2!”
Everyone: hey SEGA could you make new Nights game?
SEGA: nope!
Square Enix: We got you fam!
Everyone: Hey SEGA what about a new JSR?
SEGA: Nope!
Team Reptile: We give you Bomb Rush!
SEGA: . . . Damn...I wish we could've thought of those.
Nah
It feels like SEGA has forgotten they have other IPs besides Sonic
That's exactly how I feel. I really wanted a new nights game.
@@brassotter6409 They do. Yakuza 7 is launching in November. They also have a new Persona spinoff coming alongside a mainline Shin Megami
Luis Angel those are only really published by sega. Made by Atlus.... sure while they count as Sega games.... these aren’t the sega games we’re talking about.
I've always been fascinated with the NiGHTS franchise but never got to play it now I'm most definitely gone play this spiritual successor.
Gives me the same feeling as if this were NiGHTS as a platformer down to the designs, movements, and sound effects...
The Bosses, main antagonist (and possibly the plot) feel similar to NiGHTS as well. Both NiGHTS and Balan are dream like protecters who the player protagonists (one boy and one girl) helps to stop a villain who creates nightmares and despair.
For people saying this is a NiGHTS spiritual successor... aside from Balan being like NiGHTS in some ways, what about the gameplay? Was NiGHTS more than just playing as the character in the title, flying through rings?
Yes but you wouldn't know cause your uncultured
@@Bestjokermain No need to be a Dickenschmitz about it.
All times I looked at NiGHTS gameplay in the past, it was all I saw: NiGHTS flying through rings. That became the basis for Special Stages in Sonic Robo Blast 2.
@@SegaMario well I guess you just don't know nights
Rose Supreme lmfao don’t listen to this guy AT ALL, Flying through rings was basically all you ever did in that game. There was some parts you could maybe call platformer but it was definitely majority flying
Well yes NiGHTS is more than that, but none of it is like this. It’s like NiGHTS more in aesthetic, setting and story set up with two opposite gendered kids exploring a dream world. I don’t think it has to do with gameplay at all
Finally a game that helps me with my depression. instant buy on launch. It's a Yes for me.
Cancer
F
God this brings back that childlike feeling that old sega games used to give me I need more of it please
DaYS: Out of Nightmares
Shoudnt you be sleeping?
Out of nightmares sleeping
It's like NiGHTS with Mario and a dash of Kingdom Hearts.
I really thought the comments were gonna be filled with how disappointing this was
The hat guy will absolutely turn evil. I’m betting everything on it.
I don't think so.
Do we even know his name yet? If we do I guess I missed it. But I’d be sad if he turned evil, he looks awesome
I mean the game is named after them so I doubt it honestly but it'll be an interesting plot twist
That One Dragon Ball Fan HER name is Balan Wonderworld
The character based on NiGHTS? I'm on the opposite side, I see it as highly improbable
With a game like this, it's great to see that Mr. Yuji Naka is alright.

Didn't he retire?
@@doclouis4236 no
This aged like milk.
1:54 "look into your hearts"
I swear to god if Normura says this is somehow important in KH lore
Imagine Sega inspired crossovers in KH!
@@rainehappy7097 Oh no...
I mean it is not like KH lore could get any worse.
@@snoozingslowpoke the way they butchered 3 story wise bugs me
@@roflmywaffles1313 so I've heard from other people as well. Haven't played KH 3 since I don't own a PS or Xbox.
The voice at the end reminds me of when I'd watch a DVD when I was little and the trailers would come out saying "coming soon"
We were so innocent.
Him: People come here when there at a turning point in their life
*shows train*
Me: Infinity Train, the game
I thought that too
