Situation Commands seen on the left side are unlocked through battle performance.

Situation Commands are a gameplay element in Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage- and Kingdom Hearts III, replacing Reaction Commands from previous games. They allow different unique actions to be performed by pressing Triangle in certain contexts.

Multiple Situation Commands can appear at once, and they can be cycled through with either the the D-pad or with R2.

General Situation Commands[edit]

Command Description Context
Open Open a treasure chest. When near a treasure chest.
Examine Investigate an object in the field. When near specific objects.
Save Open the Save menu. When near a Save Portal.

Situation Commands[edit]

Combat-based Situation Commands are unlocked through battle performance. Like Command Styles and Finish commands from Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, engaging in combat has arrow-shaped markers appear above the Command Menu. When sufficient damage is inflicted while at three markers, the markers are dispensed and Situation Commands appear above the Command Menu, alongside a timer next to them indicating how long the player has until the Command disappears. These timers can be refreshed by re-initiating the Situation Command's trigger.

The Situation Commands that appear are based on the player's battle style when acquiring markers, and can vary among Grand Magic, Formchanges, Style Changes, Attractions, and Team Attacks. A highly-varied battle style can also unlock multiple Situation Commands simultaneously, allowing the player to unleash several powerful moves in rapid succession. If the player does not attack or block anything for a period of time, any gained markers will be discarded.
