After defeating [[Xigbar]], Saïx and [[Luxord]], only Xemnas is left of the original thirteen members. Sora and Riku unite to defeat him. Confused how to return back, Naminé appears and opens a portal which Mickey, Donald and Goofy pass through. Naminé reunites with Kairi, and a projection of Roxas reunites with Sora. However, it turns out Xemnas' defeat is a false alarm, and Riku and Sora have to finally defeat Xemnas. Afterwards, Xemnas' new Kingdom Hearts is closed. Sora and Riku rest on the Dark Margin. Sora and Riku inexplicably find a bottled letter from Kairi she sent before their reunion, and the Door to Light is somehow opened, which they pass through. Sora and Riku find themselves returned to their homeworld of [[Destiny Islands]]. The pair are welcomed by Kairi, Donald, Goofy and Mickey. Sometime later, Sora, Riku, and Kairi receive a letter from King Mickey.

* The enemy's HP is no longer colored with pink, orange, green, yellow, etc, which made it confusing for players fighting enemies with a lot of HP to know how much health was left. Instead, the HP is entirely green, with sub-icons to easily indicate the amount of health.
