When Sora faces Riku for the second time while Riku is under the possession of [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] in [[Hollow Bastion]], Riku utilizes an unnamed variation of Dark Break throughout the battle that consists of him leaping into the air and plunging the [[Keyblade of People's Hearts]] into the ground a single time to hit Sora with several columns of dark flame.

While he does not have access to it in the original ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'', the [[Riku Replica]] can execute a variation of Dark Break known as "Helm Split" from his second battle onward against Sora and in both of his battles against Riku in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]''. The attack is based slightly on the ''Kingdom Hearts'' variation of Dark Break, as after the Riku Replica strikes his target from above, he concludes the Sleight by hitting Sora or Riku from below with several columns of dark flame.

During his battle with [[Roxas]] in [[The World That Never Was]], Riku is able to use an unnamed variation of Dark Break once the Oblivion Keyblade he wields starts to glow with blue energy. This version of Dark Break has a teleportation element which allows Riku to follow Roxas around the battlefield while executing his aerial strikes. The attack concludes with several columns of dark flame erupting around Riku.
