In earlier games in the ''Kirby'' series, [[Meta Knight]] previously wielded a generic sword that varied in appearance, both in official artwork and in-game. Said sword is typically portrayed with a completely golden coloration, or features a silver blade and a golden hilt in some appearances.

''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' was the first to introduce Galaxia as Meta Knight's main weapon. ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' was its first in-game appearance (via Meta Knight's [[trophy]]), and from there, it has consistently appeared in Meta Knight's official artwork since ''[[Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land]]''. The primary exception is its appearance in ''[[Kirby & The Amazing Mirror]]'', which remains unclear due to how inconsistently Meta Knight's sword is portrayed in said game, even in official artwork (see [[#Similar swords|below]]). Eventually, ''[[Kirby Air Ride]]'' would feature Meta Knight properly using the famous sword with its current appearance in gameplay.
''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'' was the first time Meta Knight's sword was named Galaxia and featured a characteristic pronged design (though it appears slightly different than its typical look).

While Galaxia was given its current name in the anime, it was properly adopted into game appearances starting with ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' with Meta Knight's "Galaxia Darkness" Final Smash. In the ''[[Kirby (series)|Kirby]]'' series, Galaxia's name is used starting with ''[[Kirby's Epic Yarn]]'', with the term "Galaxia Sword" being used to refer to both a piece of [[Furniture]] and an [[Area Patch]] used to unlock [[Battleship Halberd (stage)|Battleship Halberd]].
