Dark Break (ダークブレイク Dāku Bureiku) is a technique introduced in Kingdom Hearts. It allows the user to leap into the air and attack enemies from above, often dealing dark damage.
Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, Dark Break is an attack sleight that Riku can access while in Dark Mode. In Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, attacks are added by pressing 
when prompted, while pressing at the wrong time cancels the sleight. The card combination for Dark Break is:

In Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Dark Break is an attack command that can be used exclusively by Riku. It allows him to leap into the air and strike enemies from above three times before creating a shockwave upon landing. The command takes up one slot in the Command Deck, and it has a reload time of 22 seconds. It grants +2 to Strength and +10 to Dark Resistance when attached to a Dream Eater recipe.
In Kingdom Hearts Union χ, Dark Break is a special attack that targets all enemies. It costs 4 special attack gauges to perform.

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.
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
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.
Kingdom Hearts Re:coded
Data-Riku can use Dark Break at any time during the final phases of his battle against Data-Sora in Hollow Bastion. The attack only consists of one aerial strike, after which Data-Riku sends several Bug Blox flying in Data-Sora's direction.
