Items in Kingdom Hearts and the Final Mix version are collectible objects stored in the player character's inventory. Items provide a major gameplay mechanic, and typically serve a purpose for either direct active use in and out of combat by Sora and any party members, but also as equipment in the form of accessories and weapons. There are also key items, which serve to further the story and trigger specific events (but can also include certain collectible items), and synthesis materials used to create new items. Lastly there are also gummi blocks, used to construct gummi ships.

Item can be acquired in a multitude of ways, such as receiving them as rewards from other characters for the completion of objectives or certain progress in the story. They can also be found inside treasure chests, and by interacting with specific objects in some worlds, such as the flowers in Wonderland. Heartless also have a minor chance to drop items on defeat, which can be increased with Lucky Strike. Bosses also often drop a unique item, generally equipment, when defeated. Lastly items can be bought with munny in shops, such as the Item Shop, Accessory Shop, and Gummi Shop, or synthesized in the Item Workshop, all of which are in Traverse Town. Trinity Marks also frequently grant various items upon activation.

Items[]

Usable items[]

Usable items in Kingdom Hearts come in two forms; equippable items usable during combat through the command menu, and items only usable when inside the menu (and thus out of combat). Both items restore either HP or MP, or both, although there are also menu items that instead raise your stats. The menu items that restore your HP also affect your entire party, but since they cannot be used in combat it is generally preferable to use them first. Although party members can also equip usable items, they tend to more often than not waste them at inopportune times.

Sora, Donald, and Goofy, start with respectively three, two, and four item slots. Other party members range from three to a maximum of eight, but are unable to increase their total amount. Sora will gain additional slots on level 18, 30, and 42, plus 54 if he has chosen the Dream Sword, or 6 and 54 if he has chosen the Dream Shield instead. As such, the Dream Rod grants no bonus slots, limiting you to six, whereas the Dream Shield grants a maximum of eight, with the Dream Sword sitting inbetween at seven. Donald gains extra slots on level 15, 25, 35, and 45, for a total of six, whereas Goofy gains them at level 10, 18, 24, and 32, for a total of eight.

Note that the Item Shop is not the only location for the weakest items, as The Peddler in Agrabah also sells them for a short time after Jafar's defeat.

Final Mix changed the pricing and synthesis lists for a handful of items, as such the new price or list is listed inside parentheses. It also severely lowered most drop rates by half or more, although in general the mid-to-late game enemies proportionally drop more powerful items.

Key items[]

Most key items are used to progress the game's story, although some are optional or missable and not important at all, and others are simply just rewards for certain achievements.
