Who's this guy?
Following the events of the first game, Sora, Donald, and Goofy are led to Castle Oblivion by a mysterious hooded figure. Upon entering, they begin to lose their memories. They soon discover that the castle is controlled by a group of shadowy individuals known as Organization XIII.
As they progress through the castle’s floors, they encounter familiar faces from their past, but their memories are twisted and manipulated by the castle’s powers. They learn that a girl named NaminĂ© is responsible for altering their memories, but she is being forced to do so by Marluxia and Organization XIII.
Let's play a new Kingdom Hearts game!
Meanwhile, Riku awakens in the castle’s basement after being transported from the realm of darkness. He must confront his inner darkness and seek redemption. He is guided by a mysterious voice, later revealed to be King Mickey. Meanwhile Ansem is still possessing Riku and tried to regain control, but Mickey is able to keep him back.
As Sora and Riku progress through the castle, they must confront the Organization’s members and their own memories. Eventually, they learn that the hooded figure who led them to the castle is actually Marluxia, a member of Organization XIII who seeks to overthrow the group’s leader.
In the end, Sora defeats Marluxia. Sora has the opportunity to regain his lost memories, but in doing so, his time in the castle will be forgotten. They decide to get the memories back and in doing so must go to sleep for a while. Sora and Naminé make a promise to meet again once he wakes up.
