Kingdom Hearts 3 challenges players to seek out the ultimate arsenal to conquer the toughest threats lurking across the Disney and Pixar realms. Among the most coveted achievements in the game is crafting the legendary Ultima Weapon Keyblade, a powerhouse weapon that requires a set of exceptionally rare materials. Unlocking this ultimate blade demands that Sora and his companions track down seven hidden pieces of Orichalcum Plus scattered throughout various worlds and minigames.
Exploring the Deep Space and Chest Locations
The first few pieces of this legendary material can be found tucked away inside traditional treasure chests waiting for thorough explorers. Players should navigate to the Keyblade Graveyard, where a chest containing the rare resource rests near the entrance to the final world. Another chest is located far away in The Caribbean on a secluded landmass known as Exile Island, rewarding those who venture off the beaten path.
For players dedicated to tracking down every hidden secret, documenting your journeys via the Gummiphone is also highly beneficial. Taking pictures of at least 80 Lucky Emblems scattered throughout the game will trigger a special delivery containing another piece of the material. Balancing exploration with photography helps ensure that your inventory fills up quickly as you reach the later stages of the narrative.
Conquering Minigames and the Frozen Slider Challenge
Beyond simple exploration, securing the full collection requires players to showcase their mechanical skills in specific side activities. One piece is locked behind the Frozen Slider minigame located in Arendelle, which requires players to collect ten specific treasures during the high-speed descent. Mastering the steering mechanics and remembering the optimal paths is essential to claiming this prize without unnecessary frustration.
Additionally, the local Moogle Shop provides a unique opportunity for persistent shoppers looking to complete their synthesis collection. Players can earn a piece of the rare ore by participating in the Moogle Postcard system, which randomly rewards items when mailing cards in Twilight Town. While the prize drops rely on random luck, consistent travelers will eventually secure the material after a few round trips to the post box.
Defeating Powerful Superbosses and Gummi Ship Adversaries
The remaining pieces of Orichalcum Plus will truly test your combat prowess against the most formidable opponents in the galaxy. Aspiring blacksmiths must challenge the Flantastic Seven, a group of unique heartless mini-games scattered across different worlds that require high scores to clear completely. Perfecting these quirky challenges ensures you receive the necessary ingredient to finalize your ultimate weapon recipe.
The final hurdle forces players to take flight into the open space areas using their fully customized Gummi Ship. Navigating to the Eclipse galaxy area allows you to initiate a dangerous confrontation with the Omega Omega superboss drifting in the deep dark. Defeating this mechanical colossus completes your collection quest, leaving you ready to visit the workshop and forge the most powerful Keyblade in the universe.
