The official Kingdom Hearts Twitter have shared a message from the game's director Tetsuya Nomura, detailing that the highly anticipated title will not have its epilogue and secret movie on the disc as these will be released at a "later date" as they are the game's "biggest spoilers".

The news comes amidst fan outcry at copies of the game now being out in the wild despite the official release date being a month away. It seems the development team anticipated this may happen and so took measures to ensure that aspects of the game could not be spoiled - which seems like it was a particularly smart choice!

I'm generally against not including all content on disc, but this seems like a case where it's not only acceptable but actually a good thing. It's not all great, but overall, seems like a plus to me.

All content is on disc. In fact this is an update that you can simply not install, remove or wait till launch for it to disappear.

For all intents and purposes, this sounds like core content to me, and it's not accessible without a download.

So sometime leaked a part of the game which pushed square to remove content from a game which had gone gold to prevent the leak and potentially used and offline sales.

My tin foil hat is tingling.
