Star Dream Soul OS is a Boss fought in Kirby: Planet Robobot. It is the final boss of The True Arena, making it the ultimate challenge in the game.

Game Appearances

Kirby: Planet Robobot

Star Dream Soul OS bears the scar left on its surface when Galacta Knight struck it. It also possesses President Haltmann's rapidly dwindling soul in its operating system, hence the name. It fights similarly to its Story Mode counterpart, with two notable exceptions. Its attacks are much more powerful, and the final phase is completely different.

Star Dream Soul OS must be defeated in order to complete The True Arena, and subsequently for 100% Completion of the game.

Boss Fight

The following lists all of Star Dream Soul OS' attacks in Kirby: Planet Robobot. Each phase is represented with a separate bar of Vitality.

Attacks - Phase 1
Attack Description
Void Lasers
Star Dream Soul OS conjures lasers from black holes to fire upon the Halberd. This is done in several patterns.
Missiles
Star Dream Soul OS fires four large missiles that home in on the Halberd. They can be shot down.
Invaders
Star Dream Soul OS summons Invader Armors to go after the Halberd. These can be shot down.
Heart Volley
Star Dream Soul OS fires heart-shaped projectiles at the Halberd. These explode in large bursts if not shot down first.
Mega Dive
Star Dream Soul OS wreathes itself in flame, then performs a rolling dive toward the Halberd, taking up a large portion of the screen it does this twice.
Force Field
Star Dream Soul OS conjures a heart-shaped force field to defend itself. Pieces of it can be fired at to break the shield.
Code Cube Volley
Star Dream Soul OS conjures giant Code Cubes that attempt to ram the Halberd.
Dream Laser
Star Dream Soul OS fires a massive laser from its core, which it sweeps across the arena.
Double Dream Laser
Star Dream Soul OS fires two massive lasers from its core, which it spirals around the arena.
Meteor Shower
Star Dream Soul OS conjures a huge field of magmatic asteroids which fly toward the Halberd. They can be shot down.

Once Phase 1 concludes, Star Dream Soul OS returns to Pop Star and abducts the entire Access Ark, adding to its mass and returning to the fight.

"Why did I reactivate such a terrible machine? Oh, I remember--I wanted to see her just one last time. How foolish! I should have known that no machine could make such a dream come true."

Attacks - Phase 2
Attack Description
Inhale
Star Dream Soul OS inhales, sucking the Halberd and several asteroids in. If caught, the Halberd takes massive damage. Otherwise, Star Dream Soul OS then spits the asteroids back out at the Halberd.
Void Rings
Star Dream Soul OS conjures beam rings from black holes to fire upon the Halberd. This is done in several patterns.
Planet Dive
Star Dream Soul OS wreathes itself in flame, then performs a rolling dive toward the Halberd, taking up a large portion of the screen.
Debris
When a piece of the mothership's shell breaks off, the debris can crash into the Halberd.
Letter Shield
Star Dream Soul OS forms a shield in front of itself, which spits out a large letter-shaped field that approaches the Halberd.
Missiles
Star Dream Soul OS fires several large missiles that home in on the Halberd. They can be shot down.
Leg Debris
After the legs break off, they float into the Halberd's space, serving as a potent collision hazard.
Binary Tree Lasers
Star Dream Soul OS conjures a series of lasers that split off from each-other, covering a good portion of the screen, then bursting at the ends.
Leg Sweep
Star Dream Soul OS forms four legs, and then swipes with them.
Giga Invaders
Star Dream Soul OS summons Gigavolt IIs to go after the Halberd. These can be shot down.

Once Phase 2 concludes, the remaining front covering of the dome falls off to reveal a face on the dome, looking much more like the one on Galactic NOVA. The fight resumes, with new and bizarre attacks.

Attacks - Phase 3
Attack Description
Double Dream Laser
Star Dream Soul OS fires two massive lasers from its eyes, which it sweeps the arena with.
Countdown
Star Dream conjures a shield, which releases fields shaped like numbers. Each one is oddly easier to dodge than the last. If the countdown gets to GO!, a system error occurs, which is extremely difficult to dodge and will almost certainly defeat the Halberd.
Implements
Star Dream disappears, and one or more giant implements appear which fire projectiles or attempt to collide with the Halberd and can be shot down. These items can be any of the following: A rooster roofpiece, a protractor, a locket watch, a light bulb, piano keys, or a spyglass.

Once Phase 3 concludes, Star Dream Soul OS falls for a moment, but then shoots a surprise laser to cripple the Halberd. Meta Knight releases Kirby from its face, to engage Star Dream Soul OS one last time with the Robobot Armor by itself. However, this time, Star Dream Soul OS inhales Kirby. Inside, Kirby must then contend with the very heart of the computer, in a completely distinct final battle in a circular arena.

All of Haltmann's memories have been deleted from the OS. Even his soul--the last trace of Haltmann-- has vanished. Star Dream has gone from a near-perfect being to a cold, mindless machine.

The heartless heart.
Attacks - Phase 4
Attack Description
Pillars
Star Dream Soul OS rotates pillars around the arena, which contain pieces that need to be destroyed. Pillars that are still intact damage Kirby on contact. As they reposition, they occasionally leave stars behind.
Summon enemies
Star Dream Soul OS brings in either two Waddle Doos two Pillahs two Whipcreats or two Capsule J3s to get in Kirby's way.
Laser Sweep
Star Dream Soul OS sweeps the arena with lasers. Once this is done, each section of the arena erupts in an energy flash, two-by-two, creating many stars.
Barrage
Star Dream Soul OS shoots out numerous explosives which can be swallowed and spat back.
Quad-Cutter
Star Dream Soul OS warps around, then stops and shoots out four cutter-like projectiles which rapidly weave in and out. These can be swallowed and spat back.
Heart Breaker
Star Dream Soul OS splits in half, referencing Marx, and slides across the arena, then recombines, creating a huge explosion and several stars. It does this several times.

When Star Dream Soul OS' Vitality is depleted, it returns to the center of the arena and pulsates violently. As it dies, it releases a last-ditch series of waves to try and take out Kirby. the unknown reader will actually need to control here, because if Kirby is not at full Vitality himself, he is guaranteed to be taken out if one of those waves hits, and will ignore invulnerability frames on any moves.

After the waves are dodged, the heart rises, shakes out of control, then shrinks. It pauses for a moment, then explodes, fracturing the heart in two, then crumbling into pieces.

Trivia

  • While Star Dream spells 'HAL' backwards, Star Dream Soul OS spells it forwards.
  • Star Dream Soul OS's coloration is reminiscent of the Galactic NOVA from Kirby Super Star.
  • This is the first boss in Kirby series history to possess a post-defeat attack, and an all-but lethal one at that.
  • President Haltmann's voice can be heard crying out every time a piece of the Star Dream Soul OS core is destroyed and when the core itself crumbles away.
