Halloweentown
Brief:
In the original installment, we seen Sora & Co. aid Jack in defeating Oogie Boogie. This time around, the world will follow the movie the "Nightmare Before Christmas" storyline somewhat closer.
Details:
The Pumpkin King, Jack is now growing tired of the same old Halloween rountine and with the help of Zero, discovers a portal in the forest to a place called Christmas Town. Jack becomes so fascinated with what he sees taking place in this town that he decides himself to throw Christmas! Later, Sora & Co. arrive and aid in Jacks quest to have Christmas, although unlike the movie, the groups approach to talking to Sandy Claus is less "invasive" (in the movie, they kidnapped him) as we seem them visit Christmas Town and coverse with Sandy Claus.
Although later, we see Sandy Claus in the hands of Oogie Boogie. Is this why we then see the group again attempt to defeat him? (to rescue Sandy). Also in this world we see the return of Sally, Barrel, Lock, Shock and Dr. Finklestien.

Disney Castle
Organization Member(s) Present: ??
Brief:
Disney Castle is the home to King Mickey, Donald & Goofy. Although it was featured in the original installment, it was not a playable world. Upon playing, we learn that the castle has experienced a wild outburst of roses in the castles ground floors.
Details:
This world starts off with Donald and Goofy greeting Queen Minnie and introducing Sora to her for the first time. Minnie, then asks Sora to lead her to the throne room, past the Heartless that have invaded her castle. Donald and Goofy, for some reason, decide to go off on their own, meaning it's up to you to protect Queen Minnie. By working your way through the main hall's of the castle, Sora must defeat any Heartless, although Minnie does on occasion attack using her magic (in addition to a CO-OP move with Sora). Also present along this journey, are Chip & Dale, who are the Gummi Ship technicians in the castle. Later, we also see Donald talking to Daisy.
Later everyone proceeds to going to the castles ground floors. When they arrive however, things get no easier. Minnie shows the group an Altar which is the source of light, although as she is talking, we see gigantic thorns cover the room's walls. The light on the altar is weak too. The group must then enter the Altar, and at the other side lays... Timeless River.
Organization Member(s) Present: Demyx
Brief:
In Kingdom Hearts, Oylmpus Coliseum was the training grounds on which Sora could become stronger by particpating in competitions and fights against powerful optional bosses. This time the world returns and the group must journey to the Underworld.
Details:
Upon arriving in the world, Sora & Co. are greeted by Hercules, and then are aided by Megara into the Underworld.
In the Underworld, Hades is again trying to get rid of Hercules. He decides to summon Auron, in order to help him defeat Hercules. Displeasing Hades, Auron refuses to help destory Hercules, so Hades decides to try and kill Auron. At this moment Sora & Co. arrive, noticing the events that are taking place.
After disputing who will defeat Hades, they realise in there current location (the Underworld) they don't have a chance. Because of this Sora, Donald, Goofy and Auron start running from Hades, but he catches up to them and goes into his berserk mode, in addition to summoning heartless and throwing huge fireballs. The group have to defeat the amount of heartless in one spot before a barrier breaks down, then they move onto another spot, while repeating the same process.
But even when reaching the exit of the area, things go no better, as Hades decides to summon Cerebus. With Donald & Goofly safetly in the nearby Keyhole, Sora & Auron decide to battle Cerebus (using CO-OP, Reaction and Regular attacks).
We also learn that back above, the Coliseum is being destroyed along with a Hydra, which Hercules is unable to defeat. In addition, we see Hades and Pete scheming.
Continuing on, Sora & Co. later have to protect Megara from Pete, in addition to facing off against Demyx, a member of the XIII Organization.

Brief:
In Kingdom Hearts, Sora & Co. (in appropiate form) helped Ariel rescue the King's Triton from Ursula (which Ariel foolishy gave her). This time around, the world will reflect the storyline of "The Little Mermaid"

During the world, we'll see Ursula help Ariel turn into a human, to meet Prince Eric who lives on the surface. By doing this, it'll aid Ursula in her plans to take control of Atlantica.
Sora & Co. aid in this quest by attempting to defeat Ursula. They do this by taking part in a twisted sort of musical mini-game, a very different approach from the original installment.

Brief:
100 Acre Wood was an optional world in Kingdom Hearts, allowing Sora & Co. to take part in several mini-games (dependent on how many "Torn Pages" they had collected), it returns for Kingdom Hearts 2 in a very similar fashion.
Details:
Upon arrival, Sora & Co. will again meet the gang of 100 Acre Wood, yet Pooh has forgetten who the group are! (in addition to his other companions). Later we find Pooh (again) stuck in a hole at Rabbits House, so they all must try and get him out of it!

Organization Member(s) Present: *Unknown Member*
Brief:
Pride Lands will closely follow the storyline of the "Lion King"
Details:
During the storyline, young Simba learns that one day he will become the new King. His father Mufasa educates him on the circle of life and how everything is connected in a balance (in some form relating to the themes of Kingdom Hearts 2). Mufasa's younger brother Scar becomes jealous of Simba's position of heir and plots to get to the throne himself by teaming up with the Hyenas. After this flashback event, things turn to the present as we see Sora & Co. in appropiate animal form and they team up with Simba to get revenge on Scar. At this time we see now Scar has teamed up with Pete, who is again an ally for the enemy. Later we'll also see the gang converse with Nala, Rafiki, Timon and Pumbaa.
The battle system in this world is also somewhat different, due to the different forms of Sora & Co., in addition Simba will be a party member. Also present in this world is an unknown member of the Organization.
Organization Member(s) Present: None
Brief:
This world is based on the first Disney short Steamboat Willie. It is the "other side" of Disney Castle and is apparently where light was first discovered. In Kingdom Hearts 2, Sora & Co. will access this world via the Altar of Light in Disney Castle.
Details:
Timeless River starts off with Pete smiling and then bursting into evil laughter. Sora & Co. then notice that they've all changed into twisted monochrome versions of thereselves (contrasting with the surrondings and all other characters). Pete then proceeds to taunt Sora & Co. that they have fell right into his trap, but it seems it is not to long before the group get the upper hand. Also featured in this world is Mickey, but it doesn't seem to be King Mickey, just another version. The role of this world is quite significant.
Organization Member(s) Present: Riku?? (probably not a member, only in dress)
Brief:
The "Land of Dragons" is based on the classic animation Mulan. Like the film it follows Mulan who disguises herself and impersonates a man to join the army, to fight the Huns lead by Shan-Yu. Natrually though, it features slight twists that relate to the main plot, and this is seen by the inclusion of Riku supposebly making an appearence, among other Organization members.
Details:
This world was recently featured in a playable demo, in the demo you start off in a small village that is overrun by different heartless. From there you make your way to the mountainside fighting many dusk/nobodies. As you journey Shan-Yu commands an army of bee's to to attack you, which then you must fight for several minutes trying to survive against the heartless. Moving on, Mulan then fires a rocket at the mountain side which results in an avalanche.
Later, you must face off against a huge dragon heartless, From the start of the battle Sora, Goofy, and Mulan are on top of the dragon, in which you target the monster's horns and attack them. By sucessfully doing this it'll defeat the dragon.
Organization Member(s) Present: Xaldin
Brief:
While exploring Hollow Bastion in Kingdom Hearts, you were provided the ability to have Beast in your party. He was searching for his kidnapped love, Belle who was one of the princesses of heart. In Kingdom Hearts 2, Sora & Co. will journey to the homeland of Beast & Belle.
Details:
The world starts off with Sora & Co. entering the castle to find a Shadow Heartless. The group decide to follow it throughout the Castle. Later, more Shadows appears but then Beast arrives and kills them. When the group attempt to talk to Beast, they get attacked by him. Beast then takes the nearby Rose in the room and dissapears.
Later, you meet Belle who explains that Beast has imprisoned the entire castle's staff in a dungeon. Belle is obviously concerned and pretty scared, which leads Sora to offer help. Journeying throughout the castle leads to the group finding a Dresser who is not prisoned, he infoms them of the staffs location. Upon arriving, the group have to face off against a boss in the form of a door.
Present in this world is Xaldin, who manipulates Beast (explaining his agressive behaviour) and then later, kidnaps Belle. When Beast returns to his self, he teams up with Sora to fight against the Nobody's summoned by Xaldin, in addition to fighting him.
Organization Member(s) Present: (All members in KH2 appear)
Brief:
Hollow Bastion was once the home to Ansem and some of the characters from the Final Fantasy games. Now two years later, it is in ruins and beginning redevelopment.
Details:
Hollow Bastion plays the biggest role in Kingdom Hearts 2, in a similar fashion to that of Traverse Town back in the original game. This time around in the world, Squall, Cid, Yuffie, Merlin and others are attempting to rebuild the town. When Sora & Co. arrive, they are asked by Cid to help in the redevelopment.
However, later on in the game the world will come under attack by the Organization, which results in possibily the most dramatic and some of the best scenes in the game. During this battle we'll witness fights between Cloud & Sephiroth, in addition to Sora & Co. (plus Squall & Cloud) facing off against thousands of heartless, Malficient and possibily Organization members. Adding to this, King Mickey will fight alongside Sora & Co. Although it is questionable who will win this battle, as we have seen Sora struggle, in addition to him begging to enter the World of Darkness (towards an Org. member).
Also Deep Dive(The World That Never Was), Twilight Town, Destiny Islands.
These are all the worlds.
Killa Kev2.0 the Twilight warrior only bows down to the King of Games who legacy will live on forever.
