Kingdom Hearts Final Mix: Complete Guide To Magic Spells

Battling all of Sora's friends at Destiny Islands is a great way to get a basic understanding of combat in Kingdom Hearts Final Mix. Once the Heartless start appearing, you'll be plenty prepared to unleash the strength of the Keyblade. However, unlocking Sora's full combative potential will take more time.

Once you meet up with Donald and Goofy, you'll learn your first magic spell. As you explore other worlds, you can learn more spells and even upgrade spells you've already obtained. If you want to dethrone Donald as the master spellcaster, you'll need to be prepared to fight for the title.

How To Unlock Every Magic Spell

There are seven basic spells to unlock throughout your journey. Each spell can be upgraded twice, with the final form being the most powerful version of a spell. While you unlock most spells through story progression, many spells and their upgrades can be easily missed.
