The Demon Tide attacks Aqua and King Mickey when they arrive at the remains of Destiny Islands and investigate the door inside the [[Secret Place]]. It is defeated by the two Keyblade Masters, but returns to hunt [[Riku]] shortly after they find the [[Kingdom Key D]] behind the door. Aqua and King Mickey rush to Riku's aid, and Aqua attempts to restrain the Demon Tide with chains of light. The Heartless breaks free, and it drags Aqua back to the remains of Destiny Islands, destroying Mickey's shirt in the process. As Mickey helps [[Sora]] and Riku seal the Door to Darkness, Aqua battles the Demon Tide and promises to help anyone else who falls into the [[Realm of Darkness]].

Shortly after their arrival in [[Twilight Town]], [[Sora]], [[Donald]], and [[Goofy]], they spot a Demon Tide chasing [[Hayner]], [[Pence]] and [[Olette]]. Sora, Donald, and Goofy fight against it, but the Heartless retreats before it could be vanquished.


After [[Terra-Xehanort]] is repelled by Donald's Zettaflare at the [[Keyblade Graveyard]], a massive Demon Tide appears and swallows [[King Mickey]], [[Kairi]], Donald, Goofy, [[Ventus]], [[Aqua]] and [[Lea]], scattering them throughout the worlds for the [[Lich]] to take their [[heart]]s. [[Riku]] attempts to fight back against the Heartless to rescue their friends, but both he and Sora are swallowed as well. However, thanks to Kairi's light, Sora ends up in [[The Final World]], where [[Chirithy]] helps restore him. Using the [[power of waking]], Sora is able to save his friends and return to the moment Terra-Xehanort attempted them. When the [[Lingering Will]] repels Terra-Xehanort, [[Dark Riku]] and [[Xigbar]] takes his place and summons a horde of Heartless and Nobodies as a final test for the [[Seven Guardians of Light|guardians of light]]. Unfortunately, a new Demon Tide appears and goes berserk, swallowing up the rest of the Heartless and Nobodies to strengthen itself. Sora charges bravely into battle, being contacted by the spirit of [[Ephemer]], who assists him by summoning the [[Keyblade]]s in the graveyard to help fight back the Demon Tide. With the power of the [[Union]]s, Sora is able to reach the core of the Demon Tide and destroy the Heartless.

Much like the Demon Tower, the Demon Tide is a swarm of [[Shadow]]s. It is large, travels in waves, and has a core that glows violet or orange. The Demon Tide has two forms. The first is a large wave of Shadows. When it takes enough damage, it plunges this wave into the ground. This turns the entire area in shades of red and black. When it re-emerges, it takes the form of a tornado of Shadows with an orange core at its center.
