According to IGN's Jeff Haynes, the trailer introduces "an additional 14th member (of Organization XIII) who happened to be female that resembled Kairi." The trailer shows single- and multiplayer gameplay including multiple Organization members.
And if the trailer impressions aren't enough, Haynes even played the game. Apparently, the computer-controlled partner in single-player is actually capable for once: "In many cases, he would land two or three strikes before we had a chance to, which was particularly useful when we were surrounded."

Here is a full translation of the trailer for anyone who is interested (courtesy of www.khinsider.com)
BG MUSIC: The Other Promise
The trailer begins with these lines.
"I can't remember, something important."
Axel: "Do you know why the setting sun is red?"
Twilight Town's clock tower.
Two finished sea salt ice cream sticks are placed.
Axel: "It's because among the countless colors comprising light, red travels the greatest distance."
Roxas: "You're just showing off, Axel!"
In front of Sora's pod in room inside the Twilight Town mansion
Namine: "Regardless of how I assemble the memories, they begin to flow out... If another memory is connected, it can't return to it's original source."
The white room where Organization members gather.
Xemnas: "Ladies and gentleman, today is a day that should be commemorated."
Xemnas: "A new member has joined us."
Xemnas: "...It is the 14th."
The 14th member moves to the center and smiles.
She wears a black hood, but from what can be seen. her face is that of a girl.
In a forest.
The King meets a black hooded man in the forest.
He looks mysterious, he's also wearing a black hood.
For a moment the man removes his hood, the King looks surprised and takes out his keyblade.
Gameplay scene.
Battle scenes from singleplay mode and multiplay mode are shown.
The multiplay result scene is shown where the players (2~4)
are shown in Organization XIII chairs.
In front of Sora's pod in room inside the Twilight Town mansion
Diz: "If he is lacking a few memories, will he have a problem waking?
Namine: "In his case, it is an important key if he's going to wake up."
Diz: "Namine, what do you foresee?"
Namine: "If its connected to another memory, surely she can't endure it."
Diz: "She...?"
Front Gate of the Beast's Castle
(This might be after Riku and the 14th fight.)
The 14th collapses in pain, she is holding the Kingdom Key.
Riku closes in on her and lifts her hood, she resists.
He lifts one eye of the blindfold to see her face.
Riku's expression changes to surprise.
Riku: "Who are you? Why do you have the keyblade?"
14th: "Why are you dressed like a member of the Organization?"
Riku walks away from her, towards the castle.
Riku: "So no one interferes with Sora's sleep."
Her keyblade is sticking out of the ground.
Riku picks it up and hurls it toward her.
Riku: "What you have... That keyblade must be a fake."
14th: "Don't tell me that! You're deceiving too!"
Riku: "Indeed, maybe I'm the one who doesn't exist."
Xion flees. Riku does not look like Ansem yet.
In front of the Twilight Town mansion.
The 14th member's keyblade is shown for a second.
Her hood is obstructed, her hair color is dark blue.
It looks like the hair of Aqua.
Axel: "You're kidding me! I'm not gonna take that."
The 14th member turns to yell at Axel.
Appearing in his hands are his chakrams covered in fire.
Axel and the 14th are confronting one another.
Axel: "I've decided. No matter how many times you escape, I will bring you back."
In Twilight Town mansion's white room
The 14th comes to Namine's side.
Namine: "I wanted to meet you, Xion."
The trailer ends as the 14th is about to remove her hood.
(It should be noted that XIV does not resemble Kairi, it's just she has a similar sounding VA)

O.o
I got the impression from KH:CoM, and KHII that Namine was Kairi's nobody. If Kairi's nobody is somehow in Organization XIII, that would probably mean Namine is not Kairi's nobody. That raises the question who is Namine's other half?

Don't even try to figure out the story of the Kingdom Hearts series using only the game dialogue. Look online somewhere for an explanation.

I doubt it even has anything to do with kairi at all its just that Nomura only knows how to draw so many human faces. he's a monster designer!
