'''Lunge 'n' Launch''', also translated as '''Guard Break''', is a technique introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It allows the user to unleash a powerful finishing combo move while piercing through an enemy's guard.

==Mechanics==
In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Guard Break is an [[action ability]] exclusive to [[Sora]] that costs 3 {{AP}} to equip. It is a ground combo finisher that activates if Sora is attacking a single enemy, or by default if {{c|Explosion|ability}} is not equipped. It allows Sora to pierce a single target's guard with a short, powerful thrust, launching them into the air and dealing Neutral damage.

In ''Kingdom Hearts III'', Lunge 'n' Launch is an ability accessible in [[Second Form]]. It is the form's second ground combo finisher. Unlike its ''Kingdom Hearts II'' incarnation, Lunge 'n' Launch adds an arcing uppercut after the initial thrust.
