Weapons (KHIII)

Weapons (武器, Buki) are a type of equipment in Kingdom Hearts III. Sora can equip up to three Keychains for his Keyblade and can upgrade his Keychains at the Keyblade Forge, from a minimum of Level 0 up to Level 10. Each Keyblade begins at a certain level when obtained; however, Keyblades carried over into New Game Plus all begin at Level 0. Party members can only equip one weapon, and unlike Sora's, theirs cannot be upgraded. Donald and Goofy can equip a variety of weapons, while world-exclusive party members only have one weapon which cannot be changed
