Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX is a collection of RPG games developed and published by Square Enix. It is part of the Kingdom Hearts series.

Originally released individually as Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix and Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 Remix on PlayStation 3 in 2013 to 2014 and later released as a single compilation title on PlayStation 4 in 2017, HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX is a compilation containing Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix, and cinematic remakes of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days and Kingdom Hearts Re:coded.

The game was released on Epic Games Store on March 30, 2021 following an announcement on February 11, 2021 during a livestream, marking the first time the Kingdom Hearts series has made its way to PC.^[2]

On June 13, 2024, the game was released on Steam, with an update to the Epic Games Store version released the same day. The new version fixed issues for RTX 3000/4000 GPU users^[3], although it also introduced more crashes than before for some people.^[4] This release has also fixed FMVs for the first time on Linux, although only for the Steam Deck at the time - a workaround exists.

The Epic Games Store version requires an internet connection to launch the game and switch games. Losing an internet connection in the middle of a game will periodically bring up a warning message that can be dismissed.^[5] This limitation is not present on the Steam version.^[6]

Essential improvements

Kingdom Hearts Re:Fined

Currently only compatible with the Epic Games Version by downgrading the game version and completely incompatible with the Steam version.

This mod aims to fix problems, crashes, and bugs that are present within the PC Ports of all legacy-class Kingdom Hearts games, as well as introduce quality-of-life features to the games.^[7]

At the moment, only releases for Kingdom Hearts I and II are available.

3. Download the appropriate version of the mod for your desired game:

Quicker Copyright Screen can be used for KH2 instead.

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix

5. Extract Title Screen Logo Skip.lua into %USERPROFILE%\Documents\KINGDOM HEARTS HD 1.5+2.5 ReMIX\scripts\kh1\ (or \kh2, \khbbs or \khrecom according to your game)

Launcher bypass

Add `KINGDOM HEARTS FINAL MIX.exe %command%` to Launch Options. Replace the exe name with some other game if you wish to launch a different game.^[8]

Create a file named steam_appid.txt in the game folder and put 2552430 in it^[9]

Notes

Doing it this way allows to add every entry as a separate non-steam game and launch them separately. It also allows to launch the games by just opening their exe's. Achievements are still obtainable.

This one needs work, there is a hex edit to display the game in 21:9 however there is a huge issue where all the UI elements zoom in and are cut off from the top and bottom, there is likely an additional hex edit to be made to fix the issue. I'll still provide the fix in case anyone wants to help figure it out. Example 1 Example 2

Issues unresolved

Game frequently crashes on AMD RDNA3 GPUs

Issue has been partly (not all affected GPUs are listed) acknowledged by the developers ^[19]

Game crashes seemingly randomly on NVIDIA GPUs

The games may crash in random locations during gameplay if using an NVIDIA GPU, primarily when (after a hour of gameplay): opening any kind of pause menu, going into a scene transition, or engaging combat^[20]

Limit the framerate to 60 FPS^[21]
Crashes are less likely to occur at lower framerates, however it's not a guaranteed fix.

Enable "Refresh Rate"^[22]

Audio issues

The game may have crackling sound, sound cut-offs at high volumes^[23] or missing voicelines.^[24]

Stuttering when VRR is enabled

The game stutters if G-Sync, FreeSync or any other VRR method is enabled. Disabling it fixes the issue.^[25]^[26]^[27]

Black screen during FMVs on Linux

Add `SteamDeck=1 %command%` to Steam Launch Options to download fixed FMVs for the Steam Deck^[28]

Uneven frame pacing causing stuttering

This game suffers from frame pacing issues at any refresh rate above 60Hz. Here's what you can do to fix this without lowering screen refresh rate to 60Hz. These only apply to Nvidia cards. The same steps should work for AMD cards.

Go to the Nvidia Control Panel, then go to Manage 3D Settings, then go to Program Settings and add the corresponding .exe for the game you're playing. These are located in `\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\KINGDOM HEARTS -HD 1.5+2.5 ReMIX-`

With the .exe for the game selected from the drop down box, Change Max Frame Rate to 60FPS and change Vertical Sync to "ON"

When you're in-game, set Screen Mode to "Borderless Windowed" or "Fullscreen", Then set Frame Rate to "Unlocked", Lastly set "Refresh Rate to "OFF"

Game randomly going back to windowed if using other modes during alt-tabbing

If using borderless, can most often be observed by quickly moving the mouse to the top right of the window right after alt-tabbing.

Game relies on internet connection to connect to EOS for statistics and will not boot when launched offline. Disconnecting from the internet during gameplay won't kick the player out, but a message will appear periodically asking the user to check their internet connection. This message can be dismissed by clicking the "Retry" button that appears on the message, but the message can't be dismissed when it appears as a result of switching or launching games from the menu while offline.
