The 25-year-old, who departs the Spanish club following their relegation from La Liga last season, has signed a five-year contract with the Ukrainian outfit.
"When the offer came from a great club like Dynamo I agreed to make the move. I'll be ready to help my teammates in the next game against Arsenal Kiev," Ruben told UEFA's official website.
Ruben joined Villarreal from River Plate in 2008.
