Warning red.pngREAD BEFORE EDITING:
  • Red-linked phrases should not be de-linked or pipe-linked if the phrase is from an official publication. Instead, please start an article or redirect at the link's target.
  • Technical info must be written in accordance with the consensus formats. Adding technical info without using these formats creates extra work for other editors and wastes everyone's time.
  • Trivia will be removed if it fails to meet the notability guidelines.
  • Do not source news to fansite translations of official publications or journals. Instead, source the publication or journal itself.
  • Based on the spelling used by the games, "Grey" is preferred over "Gray".
  • Entelechy is used here per its English definition, and is not meant to imply that it is an official term within the Kingdom Hearts franchise.
  • Do NOT add voice actors to a character's article UNLESS YOU HAVE A CLEAR SOURCE TO SUPPORT IT.

The '''''Kingdom Hearts II Official Strategy Guide''''' is a guidebook for ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.
The '''Kingdom Hearts II Official Strategy Guide''', (named ''The Complete Guide'' for the UK), is an accompanying walkthrough guide for ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', which displays comprehensive 3D maps, exhaustive lists and tables covering all enemies, weapons, spells, characters, items, accessories, abilities, summons etc. as a complete step-by-step walkthrough and detailed boss strategies.


==Product Description==
==Product Description==
The ''Kingdom Hearts II'' Official Strategy Guide was published by {{w|Dorling Kindersley|BradyGames}}, which also published the strategy guides for ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]''. Two versions of this guide were released: a standard and limited edition.  
===US Version===
The Kingdom Hearts II Official Strategy Guide was made by BradyGames. BradyGames also did the ''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]'' and the ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'' strategy guides. BradyGames released two versions of the guide, a standard edition and a limited edition version.


The limited edition version of this strategy guide comes boxed in a cardboard jacket that houses both the guide itself and Jiminy's Journal, an illustrated compilation of the material contained within its [[Jiminy's Journal|in-game counterpart]] that includes a sheet of stickers usable for marking obtained journal entires. Various covers were made for the limited edition version of the ''Kingdom Hearts II'' strategy guide; each features [[Sora]] in one of his [[Drive Forms]].  
The limited edition came sealed in a hardcover jacket and included two booklets: the Official Strategy Guide and Jiminy's Journal, an illustrated compilation of character profiles, enemies, mini-games, and treasure chest locations. The strategy guide booklet had one of four available covers, each depicting one of Sora's [[Drive Form|Drive Forms]].

*[[Jack Skellington]]'s equipment and stats are copied from [[Aladdin]]'s page (pg. 29).
The Kingdom Hearts II Official Strategy Guide for the United Kingdom was made by Piggyback Interactive, known for covering Square Enix properties. In development for seven months, Piggyback boasted its guide contained "original and exclusive artwork."
*[[Yen Sid]] is called "Yen Cid" in the paragraph text, despite his name being spelled correctly in his character bio on the same page (pg. 59).
 
*The locations of the [[Mythril|Mythril Shard]] and Mythril Stone that can be obtained in [[Agrabah]] are swapped (pg. 121).
====Contents====
*[[Jasmine]] is described as a "Princess of Light," rather than a "[[Princess of Heart]]" (pg. 125).
*Introduction
*The four items that can obtained in the Underground Concourse in [[Twilight Town]] are not listed (pg. 197).
*How to Play
*The logo of [[Hollow Bastion]] is used to illustrate the location of a treasure chest that can be found at the Ship Graveyard: Seadrift Row in [[Port Royal]] (pg. 264).
