Origin

Destati is not present in the game Kingdom Hearts itself. Rather, it's from the game's E3 2001 trailer. In Kingdom Hearts, a different arrangement of this (specifically Dive into the Heart -Destati-) serves as the battle music for Dive to the Heart, and when fighting Darkside for the first time. The original track from the trailer was later featured as a bonus track on the game's official soundtrack.

Other Uses

This track was used during Battling with Sora when Sakurai prepares to fight as Sora against Cloud and Sephiroth, as well as when battling Master Hand and Crazy Hand in Sora's Classic Mode route. It is also the track used in the DLC Spirit Board for the Kingdom Hearts series.

Lyrics

Destati is written in Italian. The word "Destati" itself is an imperative to "awaken!" It accompanies the conflict of light over darkness, a major theme in the series.

Italian	English
Destati! Tendi la mano!	Awaken! Hold out your hand!
È giunta l'ora, Destati Le porte verranno schiuse (Destati, Destati, Destati)	The time has come, Awaken The doors will be parted (Awaken, Awaken, Awaken)
Su rimembra tu trepida! Su sveglia! Ehi ricorda!	Come on, remember, you who tremble! Come on, wake up! Oh, remember!
Destati! Destati! Forza, tenda la mano! Destati! Destati! È giunta l'ora!	Awaken! Awaken! Come on, hold out your hand! Awaken! Awaken! The time has come!
E ancora una volta Apriranno le porte!	And once again They will open the doors!
Su rimembra tu trepida! Su sveglia! Ehi ricorda!	Come on, remember, you who tremble! Come on, wake up! Oh, remember!
Eh? Come? Non lo vuoi!? Tuttavia t'appartiene Ciò che hai perduto Diventerà uno solo!	Eh? What? You do not want it!? Still it belongs to you That which you have lost Will become one!

Trivia

Strangely, this track has a specifier noting that the track is taken from the original Kingdom Hearts, despite listing the source as the very same. Other tracks that come from the original source do not list the game twice.

Trivia

• While not available in-game, "Hikari -KINGDOM Orchestra Instrumental Version-" from the original Kingdom Hearts is used in Sora's reveal trailer. Different versions of this song are also known overseas as "Simple and Clean".
• Kingdom Hearts is the only series to feature a music track that can only be unlocked if the player has save data from another game, namely "Dearly Beloved -Swing Version-", which is unlocked with save data from Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory. Previously, save data recognition only granted spirits.
  • The demo version of Melody of Memory does not unlock this song, due to it not creating save data on the system.
  • Unlike “MEGALOVANIA”, “Floral Fury”, and “Burning Town”, the respective songs obtained when purchasing the Sans, Cuphead, and Shantae Mii Fighter costumes, custom stages that have “Dearly Beloved -Swing Version-“ set as the song can still be downloaded and played on even if the player does not have save data of Melody of Memory, as long as the player has Challenger Pack 11, whereas stages with the aforementioned three songs cannot be downloaded at all without their respective Mii costumes. However, downloading and playing on such stages does not add the song to the player’s library.
• Kingdom Hearts is the second DLC universe introduced in Ultimate to not have any remixes, the first being Dragon Quest. Unlike Dragon Quest however, Sora's victory theme is a new arrangement rather than also being directly sourced.
• Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory is the second of two games released in the 2020s to be represented in Smash via music, with the first being Minecraft Dungeons.
• Kingdom Hearts and Minecraft are the only major series in Ultimate where all songs featured are named identically in both English and Japanese. All songs from Sonic The Hedgehog, Street Fighter and Tekken are listed in English even in the Japanese version, but the exact names vary.
• Kingdom Hearts is one of four universes in Ultimate to feature songs from pre-release material, with the other three being Super Mario Bros., The Legend of Zelda and Sonic the Hedgehog.
• Each track is listed in Ultimate's sound test in the order that it appears in the Kingdom Hearts Original Soundtrack—while that game's rendition of "Dearly Beloved" is the first track, "Dearly Beloved -Swing Version-" is likely placed last due to its game of origin and unlock method.
