For full content that is. You can play it from start to finish but you'll be missing some stuff.

On Twitter this morning, publisher Square Enix laid out the update
schedule for Kingdom Hearts III’s launch week, and it includes an epilogue on Wednesday, January 30 as well as a “secret movie” on Thursday, January 31. The publisher also said it plans to patch in a recap of previous Kingdom Hearts games on launch day.

Here is their planned release schedule

  • Tuesday, January 29: Update 1.01 (several data fixes) Memory Archive (videos) *The Memory Archive option will be added to the game’s title menu and can be viewed at any time.
  • The Memory Archive is a digest of the Kingdom Hearts story in the series up to this point.
  • Wednesday, January 30: Epilogue (video) *Players will need to have completed Kingdom Hearts III and seen the ending to view this video.
  • Thursday, January 31: Secret (video) *Players will need to have completed Kingdom Hearts III and seen the ending, as well as fulfilled certain criteria during play to view this video.
  • The criteria vary depending on the difficulty level selected.
  • The epilogue and secret movie are video content that will enhance player’s enjoyment of the world of Kingdom Hearts.
  • These pieces of downloadable content are additional elements for Kingdom Hearts III
  • The main game allows players to proceed to and view the ending without the need for an internet connection.
 
I think KH3 needing an internet connection is disappointing to people with slow internet connections which may take many hours to download DLC and updates.
 
since it will be a large video, it will take time sadly.

Hopefully, there would be a future special edition version of Kingdom Hearts 3 which come with the video on the disc.

People with very slow internet connections would be unhappy. It can be faster to ask a local KH3 fan with a faster internet connection to use a video recording device to record the video for them, and use a USB drive to share the video with them.
 
Unfortunately, spoilers will appear earlier then the video will be loaded via slowly Internet. Uncomfortable and informatically dangerous.
