After reading Mickey's letter, Sora sits on the Paopu tree while holding it and staring off into the sunset. Riku walks up to him and asks if he has decided, and Sora says that he has. He later smiles at Sora's decision to venture out to find [[List of Glossary terms#Hearts Tied to Sora|those connected to him]]. | After reading Mickey's letter, Sora sits on the Paopu tree while holding it and staring off into the sunset.

Riku's iconic scene in ''Kingdom Hearts'' where he reaches for Sora to follow him, later echoed by [[Vanitas]] and [[Young Xehanort]], is emulated in a scene in ''Final Fantasy XIII-2''; in a dream version of New Bodhum, Serah finds Lightning on the dock, who beckons for her to stay, saying that her family is waiting. After refusing, Lightning is engulfed in chaos. | Riku's iconic scene in ''Kingdom Hearts'' where he reaches for Sora to follow him, later echoed by [[Vanitas]] and [[Young Xehanort]], is emulated in a scene in ''{{ns|finalfantasy|Final Fantasy XIII-2}}''; in a dream version of New Bodhum, Serah finds Lightning on the dock, who beckons for her to stay, saying that her family is waiting.

When Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, possessed his body he gained incredible new powers, but he was now stuck permanently in dark form because of the darkness pouring out of him. In addition, he took six of the seven Princesses' hearts and used them to form the [[Keyblade of People's Hearts]]. Riku's enhanced dark powers under possession are Dark Raid, where he throws a spinning Dark Keyblade, Dark Break where he performs a powerful jump attack, Dark Firaga where he counters a spell by shooting an orb of dark energy, and Dark Aura where he dashes around the arena at high speed slashing all in his path. | When Ansem, Seeker of Darkness, possessed his body he gained incredible new powers, but he was now stuck permanently in dark form because of the darkness pouring out of him.

When he is playable in ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', he is given a preset deck in each world that cannot be changed and changes automatically during gameplay.

By breaking his opponent's cards, Riku acquires "DP", which let him transform into Dark Mode. Dark Mode, along with giving him increased speed and increased strength, gives him access to [[sleight]]s that mimic his special attacks from ''Kingdom Hearts''. Outside of Dark Mode, any combination of stocked cards counts as a sleight and costs Riku a card, so he cannot perform combo attacks as easily as Sora can. Instead, he has access to a unique system of battle called "card dueling", which allows Riku to stun opponents and perform special commands by breaking their cards multiple times. | ||
Overall, in contrast to Sora who must rely on sleights and combos to fight, Riku's playing style is more up-front, relying on card duels and breaks to acquire DP and enter Dark Mode. In this game, Zexion said his scent is very similar to the [[Xemnas|Superior]]'s. In gameplay, it is also shown that Riku can run faster and jump higher than Sora. | Overall, in contrast to Sora who must rely on sleights and combos to fight, Riku's playing style is more up-front, relying on card duels and breaks to acquire DP and enter Dark Mode.
