Towards the end of the game, each of the heroes eventually arrives at the true battlegrounds of the world at the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Seat of War}}'''|古戦場|Kosenjō|lit. "Ancient Battlefield"}}, a small outcropping of rock overlooking the shattered vista below. It leads into the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Twister Trench}}'''|砂嵐の道|Suna-arashi no Michi|lit.

"Within the Storm"}} inside each twister, ready to attack all who are captured by the maelstrom. Past the storms is the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Fissure}}'''|峡谷|Kyōkoku|kit. "Canyon"}}, a small ravine containing a save point and a [[Moogle Shop]]. The final area, the titular {{nihongo|'''{{a|Keyblade Graveyard}}'''|キーブレード墓場|Kīburēdo Hakaba}} contains a crossroads, covered by the [[Keyblade]]s of the wielders who fell during the Keyblade War. During his battle with the heroes, Master Xehanort produces a horde of rocky pillars, making the graveyard completely unrecognizable, and summons [[Kingdom Hearts]] to shine down upon it.

Terra fights Master Xehanort and Vanitas at the {{nihongo|'''Cliff Top'''|崖上|Gaijō}}, while Ventus fights Vanitas and Aqua fights Braig {{nihongo|'''Under the Cliff'''|崖下|Gaika}}. After Master Xehanort steals Terra's body and is reborn as [[Terra-Xehanort]], Terra's soul possesses his [[Keyblade Armor]] thus creating the [[Lingering Will]]. The armor locks them both within the {{nihongo|'''{{a|Will's Cage}}'''|思念の檻|Shinen no Ori}}, and forces Xehanort into a final battle. Meanwhile, Ventus and Vanitas have reunited into [[Ventus-Vanitas]], and Ventus is forced to fight off Vanitas's control within {{nihongo|'''{{a|Ventus's Mind}}'''|ヴェントゥスの精神世界|Ventusu no Seishin Sekai|lit. "Ventus's Soul World"}}.

As part of the [[Versus Mode]] at [[Mirage Arena]], a unique location is used as battleground. The area is a walled in and small arena, with several rock formations and platforms, and a twister that can hurdle the player up into the air.

Keyblade wielders eventually clashed over the world's light. Some sought to steal the light, some to usher in darkness, some to balance the two, and some to protect the light. Only [[Ava]]'s [[Dandelions|secret faction]] did not take part in the [[Keyblade War]]. Eventually, this clash resulted in the destruction of the original [[χ-blade]], which split into seven lights and thirteen darknesses, forever leaving the true [[Kingdom Hearts]] beyond reach. [[Luxu]] watched the conflict to its conclusion, with [[No Name]] in hand to allow the [[Master of Masters]] knowledge of how the war ended. With the Keyblade War done, the barren wasteland it was fought on remained littered with the Keyblades of the fallen wielders.

A year after the events of Dark Road, Xehanort is rescued from the Corridor of Darkness by the Master of Masters, who takes him to the Keyblade Graveyard. The Master gives Xehanort a black coat, telling him it’s much better at repelling Darkness than his armour. In return the Master asks Xehanort to look at people’s hearts while travelling the worlds and report back to him. Xehanort returns and reveals what he found, that hearts are more complex than originally thought and that people are mislead by their beliefs. Xehanort tells the Master he plans to do something about that and that he’ll keep the coat. However the Master says he’ll ditch the coat soon as he’ll become too strong for Darkness to control him. Xehanort asks the Master why he doesn’t take his coat off and who he really is. The Master replies he’s too much of a scaredy cat to take his coat off, but tells Xehanort his name before leaving.

After the Union leaders used the lifeboat to escape the collapsing Daybreak Town, Ventus lands several hundred years into the future at the Keyblade Graveyard, still unconscious from his battle with the Darkness. Xehanort, having found out Ventus's location from the Magic Mirror, approaches him.

In order to strengthen the darkness within Ventus, Xehanort brought his apprentice to the graveyard and set [[Neoshadow]]s on him. However, [[Ventus]] was unwilling to rely on his darkness, so Xehanort used his Keyblade to split the darkness from Ventus, creating [[Vanitas]]. The procedure mortally injured Ventus's heart, so Xehanort took him to the Destiny Islands to allow Ventus to expire in peace.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep}}
