'''Kingdom Hearts V Cast''' was an unofficial entry in the Kingdom Hearts game series made exclusively for the Verizon Wireless V Cast cellphone network. It was released in Japan on October 1, 2004, and in the United States on February 4, 2005. It was made by Disney Interactive and Superscape without Square-Enix thus making it non-canon in the relation of the series. The V Cast network was disbanded in 2012 which caused the game to be unable to download from that point on and thus caused it to be lost. No dump of the game is known to exist on the internet.


Not much information is known about it except that:
Chapters 2, 3, and 4 are still lost.
*It took place during the first Kingdom Hearts as a dream sequence
*Worlds included: Swordman's Island, Wonderland, Agrabah, and Maleficent's Fortress.
*Unique characters and bosses included: Swordman Parrot, the Caterpillar, and the cobra form of Jafar.


EDIT: On July 13th, 2016 Youtuber KHCentral uploaded a video stating that someone by the username "Wedge" on the 4Chan KH community ripped and uploaded the game's files to the internet, but also states no emulator has yet been made to support it.
