- "The power of the warrior. Invincible courage. A sword of terrible destruction."
- —Dive to the Heart
The Dream Sword is a weapon which appears in Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts II, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, and Kingdom Hearts Re:coded. It appears within Sora, Roxas, and Data-Sora's Dive to the Heart, alongside the Dream Shield and Dream Rod. These three weapons represent the paths that Sora, Roxas, and Data-Sora can take — the path of the warrior, the guardian, or the mystic. As the weapon of the warrior, the Dream Sword focuses on strength and avoids defense, and if Sora or Roxas choose it, they will learn their offensive abilities at lower levels. Additionally, Sora will eventually gain an extra Item Slot. Data-Sora will gain a Quick Blitz command if he chooses the Dream Sword, and a Cure command if he gives it up.
If Sora chooses the Dream Sword in Kingdom Hearts, he will use it as a weapon throughout his Dive to the Heart. Like the Dream Shield and Dream Rod it will disappear at the end of the dream, but unlike those weapons it cannot be re-obtained in the waking world. In contrast, if Roxas or Data-Sora chooses the Dream Sword in Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, it will immediately transform into their respective Kingdom Keys. Sora can wield this sword within Mission Mode in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days.
Story[edit]
Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance[edit]
As Riku dives into Sora's heart, he glimpses a flashback of Sora wielding the Dream Sword against the Darkside.
Design[edit]
The Dream Sword is a generic short sword with a black Hidden Mickey symbol on the hilt and a blue handle. The pommel is simple and golden in color. It is similar in design to the sword at the core of the Ultima Weapon.
Its appearance resembles that of the magic sword from the Disney film The Black Cauldron.
Gameplay[edit]
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days[edit]
Sora is able to wield the Dream Sword in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days if the Zero Gear is equipped. Unlike the plethora of identical combos for Sora's various Kingdom Key variants, the Dream Sword's combo is completely unique. Its ground combo begins with a basic hit with the sword, followed by a forward thrusting move, with the weapon pointed out, and finishing with a slide forward, then a slashing move almost identical to Zantetsuken. Pressing 
after the thrust will make Sora jump up in the air in an uppercut with the sword, and pressing again will finish the combo with a vertical spinning attack, in which Sora spins several times vertically with his weapon brandished.
The Dream Sword's aerial combo begins with a diagonal slash upward, followed by a sharp slash downward. It finishes with a vertical spinning attack, in which Sora spins several times vertically with his weapon brandished; a manner not unlike the Hurricane Blast.
