Abilities may be categorized in a number of different ways, but the two main types are action abilities and passive abilities. Action abilities may affect weapon combos, such as {{c|Vortex|ability}} or [[Aerial Finish]], or grant whole new skills that can be used in the field, such as [[Dodge Roll]] or [[Guard]]. Passive abilities have a variety of effects, such as boosting damage dealt to enemies, enhancing weapon combos or other action abilities, and making it easier to pick up items dropped by enemies.

In some games, certain action abilities, usually ones that increase mobility, are separated from other abilities. These may include such abilities as [[High Jump]], [[Mermaid Kick]], [[Quick Run]], or [[Glide]], among others. ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'' lists a number of action abilities as '''Shared Abilities''', which can be used by all party members once equipped, at no cost. In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', '''Growth Abilities''' are special action abilities that are learned and leveled up by leveling [[Drive Form]]s.
