In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', Block is an [[ability panel]]. It is triggered by pressing {{button|dsy}} while standing stationary, and holding the button extends the duration of the block whenever any attacks come into contact in succession. It can be upgraded from '''Block LV1''' up to '''Block LV2''', '''Block LV3''', and '''Block LV4''' by linking {{nihongo|'''Block LV+ Ⓛ'''|ガードアップⓁ|Gādo Appu Ⓛ|lit. "Guard Up Ⓛ"}} panels to it. Increasing the ability's level decreases the time after a block during which commands are unavailable and decreases the recoil that occurs after a successful block. It can also be linked to various sub-panels, which can be synthesized at the Moogle Shop.

In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', Block is a {{c|defense command|BBS}} that has a maximum level of 3. It is triggered by pressing {{button|s}} while standing stationary or walking, and holding the button extends the duration of the block. Block allows the user to guard attacks for 1 second, with an additional 0.67 seconds after guarding an attack. The user cannot guard against certain enemy attacks, non-elemental attacks, or attacks from behind. Attacks that are deflected by commands such as Block are directed at a locked-on enemy.

In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', Block is an {{c|action ability|kh3}} that costs 2 {{AP}} to equip. It is triggered by pressing {{button|s}} while standing stationary only. Unlike in previous games, Block can be used while airborne and while underwater. Block has an area of effect of 220° in front of Sora (certain attacks can be blocked regardless of the direction Sora is facing) and a duration of 0.6 seconds. After a successful Block, Sora will continue blocking any attacks that connect until his guard is lowered; each subsequent connection will reset the guard stance. Some enemy attacks can break Sora's guard, which staggers him and immediately renders him vulnerable to damage unless the [[Risk Dodge]] ability is equipped and is activated. As of version 1.09, attacks that are unblockable are telegraphed with a red circle whenever they connect with Sora outside of the active period of a [[Dodge Roll]] or [[Air Slide]].
