The final battle is against [[King Dedede]] and his group of clones made by the Star Rod Hammer Dedede Custom at the Fountain of Dreams. First, the player has to battle all of the Mini Dededes, who after jumping in from the background, are defeated in one hit, so they don't pose much of a threat. After that, Dedede and his two orange Combo Dededes appear to battle Kirby. Once the Combo Dededes are defeated, King Dedede grows over twice his normal size and attacks Kirby. Once he is defeated, the player unlocks a rare outfit for their current [[Copy Ability|copy ability]] (if they don't already have it).

*After Single Player mode is beaten on Very Hard difficulty for the first time, [[Shadow Kirby]] will also appear on the title screen, replacing the top-left Pink Kirby.
*If Single Player Mode is beaten on Very Hard difficulty, [[Shadow Kirby]] will also appear on the title screen, replacing the top-left Pink Kirby. The latter still appears, just repositioned right above Red Kirby.
**If all the [[Costumes|Rare Outfits]] are unlocked, the Kirbys on the title screen will don said outfits for each ability.
**If all the [[Alternate costumes|Rare Outfits]] are unlocked, the Kirbys on the title screen will don said outfits for each ability.
**On the title screen, there is a chance that the indigo colored Kirby will be briefly replaced with [[King Dedede]], then become that Kirby again.

*According to a [[Miiverse]] post by the developers, a working title considered for the game was 大激闘！桃色武道大会<ref>https://kirbydevpostarchive.tumblr.com/post/166090209346/hal-laboratory-%E3%82%A4%E3%82%B7%E3%83%80hallaboratory-07222015-600</ref> (''Royal Rampage! Pink Fighting Championship'').<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20171108043211/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHkZefbJcQ</ref> The idea behind this title was to avoid using Kirby's name, which emphasizes how many Kirbys come to fight together. In the end, they decided to go with a simple title that would clearly communicate the idea behind the game.

*Most, if not all of the moves in this game that had invincibility frames in games prior (Hammer Twirl and Hammer Swing, for example) no longer make the user invincible during regular battles, a trait that also occurs in the other Kirby Fighters games. However, the invincibility frames are retained during boss fights.

**Oddly enough, one exception to this major change is Bell Kirby's Bell Block move, which retains invincibility frames as Kirby gets out of his bell hat when letting go of the guard button, allowing him to avoid many attacks that others wouldn't after guarding.
