'''Rhythm Route''' is the fifth level of ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]''. It has five regular stages, a boss stage, and an EX stage. The level features a densely-packed, extremely-lit cityscape environment with a musical theme, but contains a casino, and a laboratory like the previous levels. There are eighteen [[Code Cube]]s to collect in this level, with three in every stage except the Boss one. The bosses are [[Dedede Clone]] and [[Dedede Clones & D3]].

==In Meta Knightmare Returns==
All stages of Rhythm Route are played in one sequence in [[Meta Knightmare Returns]] except for certain sections involving the [[Robobot Armor]]. Through this sequence, two [[Sticker (Kirby: Planet Robobot)|sticker]]s can be found.

In addition, many enemies are re-sized - changing their [[Health]] and also possibly movement speed - and [[Dedede Clone]], [[Dedede Clones & D3]], and the [[Mid-Bosses]] are changed to their 2.0 forms. 

Finally, in place of [[Code Cube]]s, side areas yield Meta-Points, which can be used to power [[Meta Knight]]'s special abilities.

==Trivia==
*The song that plays in Stages 1 and 4 of Rhythm Route, "Sky-High and Smitten", was composed by [[Jun Ishikawa]]. He recalled being shown concept art of Kirby in an entertainment district with bars and neon lights, and since he thought that the juxtaposition was funny, he wrote the song as [[wikipedia:soft rock|adult-oriented rock]] with the idea that "it smells like alcohol, even though it's Kirby". Because of this, [[Shinya Kumazaki]] named the song 「摩天楼に酔いしれて」 (''Intoxicated by the Skyscrapers'') in Japanese.<ref>[https://docs.google.com/document/d/1e3EIlpdZnD3nUNm9wfL-ofp_ocwlgzIiZMAtf1sa0Ms/ 2017 Keyboard Magazine Interview]</ref>
