Comment from the Game Producer
I feel flattered and honored that Kingdom Hearts II has been selected for this award. I'm extremely happy that the series -- the present one is the third in the series -- is loved by so many fans.
All the creators on our team poured their hearts into this game. It has become an important accomplishment for our entire department. I'm proud of this epic, which follows in the tradition of Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy. Collaboration with Disney in including Disney characters gave us some challenges, but it definitely contributed to the wonderful results. I'm determined to continue creating works that satisfy you all.
