When Riku was a child, as seen in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'' and flashbacks in the original ''Kingdom Hearts'', his hair is shorter and his bangs are slightly side-swept. He wears a high-collared, blue-trimmed, sleeveless yellow shirt with a zipper that reaches halfway down to his chest. He wears black shorts and white shoes with grey soles and blue stripes on both sides. Riku also has light blue wristbands on each of his wrists, along with a thinner, yellow band around each blue one.

In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', when Riku returns to his normal form, he has a sleeveless, black zip-up tank-top with double zippers, and a white-and-yellow vest over it with a blue separating the two colors and decorated with four silver buttons. He sports a white thick band on his left wrist, baggy blue pants held up by a black belt covered with square spike studs. He wears a pair of yellow-laced, white sneakers with gray lining and soles, and three black stripes on the sides. His hair is much longer, reaching down to his upper back. Riku reprises in this outfit in ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'', but has cut his hair to a shorter length.

===[[Halloween Town#Character Design|Halloween Town]] version===

[[File:Riku HT KHRECOM.png|x200px|right]]

While on Castle Oblivion's Halloween Town floor, Riku's skin takes on an ashen and slightly decayed look. Unlike Sora, Donald, and Goofy's drastic costume changes, Riku's outfit remains otherwise the same as normal. These changes also apply to his Soul Eater and Dark Mode as well.

===[[The Grid#Character Design|The Grid]] version===

[[File:Riku TG KH3D.png|x200px|right]]

In The Grid, Riku wears a dark blue suit with light blue circuitry that bears a resemblance to his outfit from ''Kingdom Hearts'', and a visor characteristic of participants in the Grid's Disk Wars competition. The Spirit emblem on his back is incorporated into the space of his Identity Disk. His Keyblades also become black with white circuitry.

While using the power of the darkness, Riku was capable of transforming into a dark version of himself and use his dark power against his opponents. In this form, his torso, arms, and legs are covered in black and purple material that resembles muscle tissue. On his chest is a symbol of the Heartless without the cross, and he has a white cloth around his waist.

[[File:Riku-Ansem KHII.png|x200px|right]]

[[Riku-Ansem]] is the form assumed by Riku at the end of ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' and during most of ''Kingdom Hearts II''. He appears identical to [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]], wearing a black coat, gloves, and boots.

After the [[Kingdom Hearts Encoder]] exploded while attempting to turn [[Kingdom Hearts]] into data, Riku was purged of Ansem's influence and transformed back into his normal form. He then discards the blindfold he wore during ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days''.
