The battle with Roxas takes place during the visit to The World That Never Was. The fight is only playable in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix.

Strategies

Attacks
  • Dual Flurry: Roxas will lash out at Sora. When weakened, Roxas will summon beams of light at the same time.
  • Criss-Cross: Roxas twirls his Keyblades in a cross-circle, unleashing a shockwave. When weakened, Roxas will summon beams of light at the same time.
  • Aerial Roll: Roxas jumps and rolls in mid-air, closing in to Sora from any distance. When weakened, Roxas will summon beams of light at the same time.
  • Duel Stance: A variation of Roxas's Samurai Nobodies' "Dual Stance" that knocks him away and "steals" Roxas's Keyblades temporarily.
  • Shockwave Thrust: Roxas will dash forward with blinding speed with one of his Keyblades pointed forward while propelling himself with his powers.
  • Twilight Arts: Roxas launch himself at Sora, covering his keyblade in light and darkness several times.
  • Magic Hour: Roxas raises into the air, cloak himself in light, and unleash a salvo of homing projectiles at Sora.

The battle will always start out with Sora within his attack range. Just as the battle commences, Roxas will immediately use "Criss-Cross", which can be blocked to leave him open to a combo, but beware, as Roxas will counter any extended combo attack with an attack of his own. It is best to not use too many combos at once.

Roxas can use a variation of Sora's Quick Run but at a much higher speed, that use light energy to fly around the stage, leaving behind a lens flare. Roxas will often use "Aerial Roll" to close in on Sora very quickly from any distance by jumping and rolling mid-air, hurting Sora if the player does not block or evade the attack.

After losing some HP, Roxas will get more aggressive. He will start using "13 beams", unleashing a flurry of attacks against Sora, covering his surronding with light beams. He also starts powering his "Aerial Roll" and "Criss Cross" with beams of light to maximize his attack range, making it even harder on Sora to dodge them without the use of guarding against Roxas or "reflecting" the attacks all together.

He can use yet another of Sora's attack, which is the "Shockwave Thrust" which can be, again, blocked or reflected. At this point, Roxas may start using "Duel Stance", dealing great damage to Sora if he fails, but knocking Roxas away and "stealing" his Keyblades temporarily if succesfull. This will make the Keyblade's automatically attack when Sora does. Roxas, not willing to give up a fight without his weapons, will start using his magic to counter his loss, until he finally recover them while trying to knock Sora.

He may use his desperation attack, "Magic Hour". He summons light beams as a sort of shield and rises into the air glowing with energy and sends out even more energy to the background revealing the area where Sora unlocks Keyholes to other worlds. When he shouts "Come on!", he summons a pair of light orbs as he twirls both of his Keyblades to send out homing energy projectiles at Sora. The best way to dodge this one is to keep on moving to one side of the field, dashing, gliding, or rolling.

As he takes damage, Roxas will leave but a second for Sora to react to his attacks. Key timing and planning is best to memorize for this battle.

Data Rematch

In the data rematch, use Dodge Roll, Reflect, Guard, and melee attacks to your full ability - Roxas has a greater tendency of using his light shields. His health has also greatly increased, making the fight much longer. The best strategy is to use the Duel Stance Reaction Command whenever possible and steal his Keyblades. Once you have them, hit Roxas with everything you got! But so long as the player heals periodically, Roxas will fall with ease.
