Additionally, these arenas can be aesthetically varied, even within the same world, while in the original game there was only one arena design per world. The "Duel" system was added to Riku's battle mechanics, and the [[Reaction Command]] system of ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'' was incorporated into both Sora and Riku's battle mechanics, generally to replace instances where the player would press the "A" button to continue a combo attack. | Additionally, these arenas can be aesthetically varied, even within the same world, while in the original game there was only one arena design per world.
