Ars Arcanum appears once again as Xion's 3rd form's special attack, only this time, using four swords.

Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep
Ars Arcanum appeared in this game as an exclusive deck command for Ventus; it involves more acrobatics than Sora's Ars Arcanum and deploys many hits, exceeding the amount of Sora's thirteen slashes. There is also an attack for Terra called Solo Arcanum, but this attack resembles Sora's Arcanum more than Ven's does and deals heavy and swift slashes. A variation of this is used by Vanitas as a Darkness-based attack.
