The World is a deck of Cards that can be wielded by Luxord in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It can be upgraded to The World+ and The World++.

Design

A card from Luxord's The World deck has the vague shape of an hourglass with spiked corners and a semi-circle cut taken out of the long sides. There is an ornate, green pattern with a white outline decorating the face of the card. This pattern lines the sides of the card, but leaves an opening at the top and bottom, which creates the silhouette of a shape that bears a curious resemblance to the badge that Terra, Aqua, Ventus, and Eraqus wear.

The World is one of twenty-two cards that make up a Tarot deck's Major Arcana. It is numbered XXI (21).

Gameplay

The World's ground combo starts with Luxord performing a 360° spin, with his cards surrounding his legs, followed by a narrow spray of cards forward, and ends with large versions of the cards protruding from the ground around him.

The aerial combo consists of Luxord slashing diagonally downwards with a larger version of the card held in his right hand, before riding a larger version of one the cards like a surfboard while performing a forward 360° spinning attack with larger versions of the cards held in each hand.
