Early concepts for the Xemnas battle included two gargantuan Nobodies in place of the dragon, formed from Dark City rather than the Castle That Never Was: {{nihongo|'''[[King]]'''|キング|Kingu}}, which had a vaguely humanoid upper body adorned in Nobody sigils and wore an immense crown, and {{nihongo|'''[[Kentauros]]'''|ケンタロウス|Kentarousu}}, which resembled a dilapidated version of the King attached to a quadrupedal lower body, with the crown becoming a spiked ruff.

At the start of the battle, immediately [[Lock-On]] to Xemnas, summon [[Tinker Bell]], and prepare any variant of [[Aero]] available (preferably as a shortcut). This will minimize the damage Xemnas can do to Sora. He will immediately execute an energy-ball attack, which explodes into orb-like, damaging force fields. While it is advised that Sora has his most powerful abilities equipped, be careful at close range, as Xemnas will counter with a damaging shield technique or a powerful slashing combo. As Sora must also be wary of his [[MP]], [[Elixir]]s and [[Megalixir]]s are strongly recommended.

===''Kingdom Hearts II''===

====First Battle====

When the battle begins, Xemnas will use his '''Invitation to Nothingness''' attack, which ensnares Sora in a field of energy that will slowly drain his health, then he teleports to the top of [[Memory Skyscraper]]. Sora must rush to the bottom of the building and use the [[Reaction Command]] "Facedown" to break the energy field and run up the building after Xemnas. Xemnas will leap down to confront Sora as he nears the top. At this point, one of three Reaction Commands appears depending on how close Sora is to Xemnas. The first is "Clash", where they pass each other harmlessly. The second is "Breakthrough", where Sora attacks Xemnas with a single attack. At the last second, the command changes to "Finish", where Sora attacks Xemnas several times and slams him into the side of the skyscraper. It's recommended to hit {{Button|t}} at "Finish". Note that '''not''' hitting Xemnas will cause him to deal damage to Sora.

In ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', Xemnas's Ethereal Blade attacks have a wider hitbox, his second and subsequent uses of Invitation to Nothingness occur when reduced below 15% HP, and when struck by Invitation to Nothingness, Sora's HP only starts dropping when Xemnas moves to the building.

=====Armored Controller=====

;First Incarnation

When an attack causes Xemnas to flinch, he counters with '''Sweep Away''', then launches attacks with weapons deployed in various locations. He will also launch two simultaneous attacks with deployed weapons when reduced to 40% HP.

;Second Incarnation

After the fall of the massive Dragon Ship, it rejuvenates and teleports Sora and Riku to an alternate dimension. They fly to the head of the ship, where they find the stationary, armored Xemnas awaiting them yet again. He will attack with a long-range sword swipe as in the last battle, dealing a lot of damage on contact. When reduced to the HP thresholds of 80%, 50%, and 30%, Xemnas blows Sora and Riku far away and fortifies his defenses with a giant shield. The first and second time Xemnas uses this attack, the shields will automatically deactivate after two minutes.

=====Xemnas (Dragon Form)=====

Sora must first tackle the Dragon Ship's tail. Utilizing a combo of the commands mentioned above, this should hardly be a challenge. Xemnas may fire a large array of missiles and since Sora cannot heal in this battle, be sure to dodge by flying in circles to each corner of the screen.

After destroying the tail, Sora must defeat the "legs" of the ship. "Mega-Laser" will come in handy here and also fly in circles to dodge the snowflake-shaped lasers that are fired. After defeating both of these limbs, Sora can proceed to the wings.

=====Final Form=====

Xemnas will first throw Sora and Riku into the air, leading to a series of aerial slash attacks and roundhouse kicks. It is possible, however, to avoid being thrown in the air if Sora has Reflega in the shortcut menu and uses it immediately after the battle begins. These tactics can be dodged by using the "[[Reversal]]" Reaction Command. To deal minor damage to Xemnas as he teleports around, manually select the [[Trinity Limit]] ability. This approach would then lead to the "Block" Reaction Command. It is also possible for a cinematic to play where Xemnas knocks Sora's [[Keyblade]] away. At this time, activate the Reaction Command "Defend", where Riku tosses Sora's Keyblade back to him and they both force Xemnas away.

====Data Rematch====

The Data Rematch against Xemnas has two phases. The first recreates Sora's one-on-one duel in Memory's Contortion, while the second recreates the final phase of the final battle. Riku joins the [[party]] after the first phase, giving Sora a chance to change his equipment between battles. If Sora is defeated in the second phase, he will have to redo the first phase.

At the start of the battle, Xemnas will use Building Throw at Sora while teleporting to the end of the arena, then follows by three more buildings. Perform carefully-timed [[Slide Roll]]s to avoid them and reach Xemnas quickly. If left alone during his normal phase, he will casually walk up to Sora like in prior games but will start to actively attack in response to Sora's offense.

In any case, resume the Guard and [[Counter Rush]] and use the same combos as usual to finish Xemnas off.

===''Kingdom Hearts III''===

Xemnas is fought alongside [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] and [[Young Xehanort]]. It is recommended to take him out last since he is the fastest and most aggressive out of them, making it difficult to land a combo. Xemnas will attack with his Ethereal Blades and hand-to-hand combat, employing a rapid slashing blade combo and swinging his Ethereal Blades in a helicopter-like manner before unleashing a burst of energy from his Ethereal Blades as well as spinning energy kicks, and can launch four energy balls and quickly move around while creating orbs that fire lasers. As his health decreases, Xemnas teleports more often to avoid attacks.

When fought alongside Ansem and Young Xehanort, the fight is nearly identical except the [[Faith Volley]] and [[True End]] team attacks are available.

====Data Rematch====

After a certain amount of Xemnas's health has been depleted, he will unleash his ultimate attack. He first surrounds the entire arena with darkness as Twilight Thorns begin to suddenly materialize out of nowhere, allowing Xemnas to force Sora into the air without Sora being able to react. Eventually, Xemnas will create thousands of Ethereal Blades and launch them as projectiles while also randomly attacking until the stage returns to normal; the red Ethereal Blades can be blocked, but the blue ones cannot so be sure to roll out of the way upon seeing one. Before the first barrage, Xemnas will use his quick three-hit combos before throwing Sora with his Twilight Thorns. Block immediately when he teleports. After his first barrage, he will go with his slower two-hit kick combos before throwing Sora. Sora should time his guards to block all his kicks.
