Situation Command

Situation Commands are a gameplay element in Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-. They behave similarly to Reaction Commands, in which they behave differently depending on context.

Unlike Reaction Commands, Situation Commands can not only be selected through pressing, but by also pressing up on the D-pad to select the Situation Command and then pressing , in the Japanese version. Also unlike Reaction Commands, multiple Situation Commands can appear at once.

Battle Situation Commands
Combat-based Situation Commands are activated in a manner reminiscent of Command Styles and Finish commands from Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, in that they are activated by filling a meter (in this case, three markers) by engaging in combat. These Situation Commands activated depend upon how this meter is filled. When the criteria for activating a combat Situation Command is reached, the Situation Command has a time limit to activate.
