Robobot Armor is a pilotable suit of robotic armor that is set to debut in Kirby: Planet Robobot. Kirby acquires this suit and dons it after defeating an enemy Invader Armor. While wearing it, Kirby gains increased endurance, being invulnerable to collisions from enemies like Waddle Dees, and is capable of performing new and stronger attacks. In addition, the suit is compatible with certain Copy Abilities, being able to 'scan' in enemies in the same vain as Kirby's Inhale, changing in form and function depending on the ability acquired. Minor enemies that do not provide abilities or are incompatible are simply vaporized when scanned. The current mode of the armor is not tied to Kirby's current Copy Ability.

The Robobot suit appears to be very versatile on top of its modular properties. It can hover, dash, ride on a Warp Star, fit in a Fuse Cannon, carry a Cannon, carry large blocks, cut through or smash large blocks, and unscrew large screws on platforms and bosses. The armor does appear to have its drawbacks, however. Due to its girth, it is limited in how far it can travel off the ground when not in Jet mode and as such, will need careful maneuvering or out right abandoning in order for Kirby to progress past certain obstacles. In addition, its size means that it cannot fit through certain passages and tubes that Kirby himself would have no problem with. In certain areas, stations appear that allow Kirby to exit the armor and continue on foot. It may not be possible for Kirby to exit the armor without these stations.

The following abilities are confirmed to be compatible with the Robobot Armor:

• Beam - Allows the suit to fire large orbs of energy that bounce along the ground. Also generates electricity through wires.
• Bomb - Allows the suit to deploy a set number of walking bombs that can crawl up walls. The bombs can also be angled and tossed before they start walking.
• Cutter - Gives the suit a set of razor blades that act like boomerangs and can cut through multiple targets and obstacles at once.
• Fire - Gives the suit two flamethrowers that can be angled and cover a large range. Also causes the suit to leave fire behind as it moves.
• Ice - Gives the suit a set of fans that can chill enemies.
• Jet - Turns the suit into a flying craft that can fire in multiple directions.
• Parasol - Gives the suit a pair of parasol-like propellers that allow it to hover.
• Spark - Gives the suit a pair of plasma cannons that can be charged for extra power.
• Stone - Changes the suit's arms into heavy clubs that can pound various obstacles and enemies.
• Sword - Changes the suit's arms into dual blades that can cut through wood blocks and heavy chains.

Like with Kirby himself, the armor can discard its current ability at any time. This may be a a hazard or not doable during the flying Jet segments, however.

Some Mid-Bosses (and likely Bosses as well) are fought using the Robobot Armor. These include the following:

• Gigavolt
