Emerging from Leongar's body is a formless phantom sustained by pure psychic energy (along with a hint of stubborness). True freedom was finally within their grasp at last... until that pink filth came along. Endless rage boils from the simple thought of it. They will get their revenge, no matter the cost. Starting with you.
— Figure description for Soul Forgo from Kirby and the Forgotten Land


Soul Forgo, titled Psychic Beat is a faced only in the Colosseum's The Ultimate Cup Z difficulty. They are a souped-up version of Chaos Elfilis, serving as the true final boss of Kirby and the Forgotten Land. While defeating Soul Forgo is not required to attain 100% completion, it is one of the requirements to complete Crown%.


Most notably, Soul Forgo's battle can only be accessed in a hidden room during the second phase of Chaos Elfilis.

Game appearances

Kirby and the Forgotten Land

Soul Forgo's shadowy form as seen in the Forgo Leon battle of Forgo Land.

Isolated Isles: Forgo Dreams

Soul Forgo makes their first appearance in Isolated Isles: Forgo Dreams, as the soul of Fecto Forgo who fled into the realm of dreams after its defeat to Kirby. They also took Leongar's body there in an attempt to subsume itself into his body as a replacement for its own. As a result, Soul Forgo also shatters Leon's soul, scattering it across the isles for Kirby to reclaim. They are only seen at the end of Forgo Land, forcing Forgo Leon to fight on their behalf. After failing to control Forgo Leon into defeating Kirby, Soul Forgo tries to intervene themself, but is shortly subsumed by a familiar red-and-orange butterfly and incorporated into Morpho Knight, using the same gag as in Kirby Star Allies with Galacta Knight.

The Ultimate Cup Z

In order to access the secret room, the system date must be set to June 19, which in 2022 would be precisely 86 days after the launch date of Kirby and the Forgotten Land. Immediately before entering the Colosseum, the player must complete Tilt-and-Roll Kirby's Extra Hard version of the ★★★ Board in between 86.00 and 86.99 seconds. After starting the Ultimate Cup Z, Kirby must first get to the second phase of Chaos Elfilis without taking damage, willingly enter the And Here We Are attack, inhale exactly 86 of the orbs, get out of bounds with either the hammer glitch or jumping out the arena from the Deadly Sun Grazer attack, backtrack to the stairs, and finally enter the room.

A transition will pop up, labeling the room as "Desecrated Sanctuary". Due to the room bearing striking similarities to Isolated Isles: Forgo Dreams and the Dreamscape, Kirby will find that the room to has less gravity. A large sphere (the same one preceding Fecto Elfilis's fight) floats down in front of Kirby, consolidating into Soul Forgo who immediately initiates a battle.

Soul Forgo's attacks in Kirby and the Forgotten Land  
Attack Description Variants Notes
空間転移能力
Spatial Teleportation Ability
Soul Forgo teleports to different locations. They often teleport during certain attacks to throw Kirby off. Occasionally, they will teleport in an attempt to evade Kirby's attacks.
リアプノフ指数的成長
Lyapunov Exponential Growth
Soul Forgo moves into the background, and rapidly shoots 5-8 'arms' towards Kirby's position. These 'arms' will linger for the next (2,3?) attacks, and will damage Kirby if he touches them. This attack may be combined with Borisov Soul Cannonball or Blitzar Cutter (2nd). The Lyapunov exponent is an index for how rapidly different trajectories diverge from the same starting point, much as Soul Forgo's arms split off. In particular, a large positive Lyapunov exponent is suggestive of the presence of highly unstable nonlinear dynamics described by chaos theory.
ボリソフ・ソウルキャノンボール
Borisov Soul Cannonball
Soul Forgo appears, fires an energy ball at Kirby, and then disappears. When the energy ball hits the ground, it will create a shockwave that slowly spreads outward. This attack is used 3 times consecutively. In the second phase, Soul Forgo will use this attack 5 times instead. 2I/Borisov, known popularly as the Borisov comet, has one of the highest documented speeds observed for a comet. The name may thus reflect how this attack is much faster than the Soul Cannonball used in the Forgo Leon battle.
This attack is also similar to the Sukhavati Scale Wave attack that Morpho Knight uses.
オールトのクラッシュ
Oort Crash
Soul Forgo appears near Kirby and creates a vortex, attempting to pull him in. They then summon a big dark energy blast that covers a large area. If Kirby is within the range of the attack, he will be transported to a harmful alternate dimension that deals a lot of damage. The attack cannot be guarded against. In the second phase, Soul Forgo will create two vortexes, which require a very precise jump as well as hovering to avoid. The Oort cloud is a cloud of comets and other icy objects, and a common reference for the edge of the solar system.
This attack can be considered an upgrade to the Soul Crash attack that Soul Forgo uses in the Forgo Leon battle. It is also similar to the And Here We Are attack that Chaos Elfilis uses.
Splash Rush (Splash Roche? Deep Field Splash Rush?) Soul Forgo teleports to the center of the arena, floating above Kirby's reach. They then start rapid-firing globs of themself all around the arena. The space underneath Soul Forgo is the only safe zone.
ドキドキ・バウンド
Heart-Pounding Bound
Soul Forgo dissolves their body and splits themself into 4. All 4 'bodies' then jump high into the air and bombard down in 3 different patterns, before fusing together into one large orb that rams into the center of the arena, creating a giant shockwave with lightning bolts pulsing through it. Which patterns used may vary, but consist of:
  • The 4 bodies slam down in a square formation
  • The bodies slam down in a line one after another
  • One of the bodies slams down on one side of the arena, causing it to partially sink. The other 3 continue to bounce around on the side that has not sunk
  • The bodies slam down in pairs, one pair on the left and another on the right of Kirby
The name is based off of the Japanese title of The Dream Discoveries Tour, ドキドキ発見はっけんドリームツアー, which translates to Heart-pounding Discovery Dream Tour.
Blitzar Cutter (1st) Soul Forgo teleports around the arena, shooting six blades. These can be swallowed for the Cutter ability. It uses this attack 4 times initially and 5 times in the second phase, in both instances doing the last two in quick succession. How the blades are fired is randomly determined, but it will always be one of these three patterns:
  • Shooting the blades laterally
  • Shooting the blades vertically
  • Shooting the blades diagonally (the angle will always be aimed towards Kirby)
Blizars are a hypothetical star that will rapidly collapse into a black hole if they slow down their spinning. This may possibly reference how fast the cutters spin.
This attack can be considered an upgrade to the Blazar Cutter attack that Chaos Elfilis uses.
Blitzar Cutter (2nd) Soul Forgo teleports to the background, and throws 3 pairs of horizontal blades at a time that home-in at Kirby's position. These can be swallowed for the Cutter ability. For the second phase of Soul Forgo's fight, it will throw twice as many blades at a faster rate. This attack is similar to the Brightless Ring attack that Queen Sectonia uses in her battle. It also appears to mimick how the Chakram Cutter ability works.

Kirby's Dream Buffet

In Wave 1 of the Kirby's Dream Buffet: Booster Main Course Pass free DLC, it was revealed that Soul Forgo will be added as a Character Treat, using completely new artwork due to not having any previously. It is set to be released alongside other new content like race tracks and battle arenas on October 30, 2024. They do not appear as a Costume or Color for Kirby, however.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe

A Dress-Up Mask featuring Soul Forgo was added alongside several other masks in a free update to Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, set to release on November 5, 2024. Their mask can be unlocked by completing Stamp Rally No. 9999.

Trivia

  • Soul Forgo's Character Treat is the only one not to be of existing artwork or a sprite.
