Originally, the Mirage Arena was meant to have a slight element of story to it, rather than be completely distant from any auxillary characters.

However, the team was also planning ''[[w:c:finalfantasy:Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy|Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy]]'' at the same time, and decided that if Laguna appeared in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', he could not appear in ''Dissidia 012 Final Fantasy''.

{{Main|Arena Mode}} | |||
Arena Mode serves a similar purpose as the Olympus Coliseum cups, allowing players to fight a series of set matches against enemies. It can be played either as a one-player mode or as a multi-player mode over a wireless connection with up to six participants. As with other events occurring in the Mirage Arena, players appear as Terra, Ventus, or Aqua, wearing their Keyblade Armor, rather than their usual gameplay attire. | |||
Arena Mode has progressively difficult levels of matches. Each match has a set number of rounds and a final boss, some of which are unique in the game to the Mirage Arena world. | |||
