Kingdom Hearts Series

Count Dooku. Dracula. Saruman.
These are just a few of the many legendary and villainous roles that the talented Sir. Christopher Lee was able to portray. With over 250 roles and 65 years of experience in the industry, Lee had also performed a range of heavy metal tracks and recieved various awards for his efforts.

Best known for his deep operatic voice and suave presence, he portrays the character Ansem the Wise in the Kingdom Hearts series. Having only the chance to voice the role in Kingdom Hearts II, and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, this marks the second well known actor in the series to have passed this year following the death of Xehanort back in February.

His cause of death appeared to be from respiratory problems and heart failure, dying on June 7th 2015, just under 2 weeks after his birthday. His family made the official announcement on June 11th 2015. Our hearts here at KH-vids.net go out to him in hopes that he may enjoy all the sea salt ice cream he wants now.

Today the official Kingdom Hearts Facebook page shared a new survey for fans of the series. The survey aims to give fans a platform to share their feedback on the future of the Kingdom Hearts series.

The majority of the questions are demographic or otherwise cover your history with the series (such as what games you have played, which of the HD Remixes you have purchased, and what platforms you play on). However, the fifth question asks fans to weigh in on localization, and what translated state a game must be in for them to consider it. With the localization status of Kingdom Hearts Unchained Key still unknown, this survey is presumably connected to it.

The survey is short and should take no more than a few minutes. It will close on June 12th, 2015 at 11:45PM PDT. You can fill out the survey here.
