Kingdom Hearts 1 Final Mix – Weapons!

Choose your weapon! Art by Rytellia

Getting all the weapons in Kingdom Hearts seems like it would be an easy task, but it’s a little more demanding then you’d expect! Finding all the Keyblades and finding hidden Staves and Shields can be a very long drawn out task. From my Platinum run of the game, I’ll Break down where to find every weapon and what is needed!


Keyblades – Sora

Now throughout the game, you’ll get significantly more Keyblades then you will staves and shields, but some are forced upon you some are not. Even when some are given upon completing worlds, no every world is technically mandatory! I’ll go over basics of where to find all of the Keyblades so you can ensure you get them all!

Staves – Donald

Donald’s weapons are pretty heavy on the buying side of things, but the best ones are found instead! Now the only staff of Donald’s that you’re forced to get is the default staff, so beyond that one they’re all optional. Here’s where you can get them all.
