'''Aerial Sweep''' is a technique introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. It allows the user to leap at an airborne enemy and strike it with a spiraling attack.

==Mechanics==
In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Aerial Sweep is a [[combat ability]] that costs 2 {{AP}} to equip. When equipped, [[Sora]] is able to attack enemies above him from the ground with a spinning jump.

In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Aerial Sweep is an [[action ability]] that costs 2 AP to equip. When equipped, Sora will attack enemies directly above him from the ground with a spinning jump that can hit up to three times. While it has more potential height than [[Aerial Dive]], the latter ability tends to take priority due to the difference in range.

In ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded'', Aerial Sweep has a memory consumption of 11%. It enables the user to crack down on surrounding foes with a jumping spin attack. It has a low chance of attacking ground enemies.
