Game appearances
Kirby Star Allies
"Butterfly of Judgment: Morpho Knight" plays when any characters who is not a Dream Friend fights Morpho Knight, although prior to Version 4.0.0, the theme was also used when King Dedede, Meta Knight, and Bandana Waddle Dee fought it. This track features keyboard, piano and notable use of bass guitar, making it resemble "VS. Meta Knight" in some manner, but they have different melodies and time signature ("Buttefly of Judgment: Morpho Knight" is in 4/4, while "VS. Meta Knight" - 5/8). It can be found as track 173 in the game's Jukebox.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land
A heavy metal remix of the theme is used for Morpho Knight's boss battle in Kirby and the Forgotten Land. This remix was done by Yuuta Ogasawara and features an electric guitar and a trumpet as leading instruments. It incorporates a bit of "Welcome to the New World!" as well. It is titled simply "Morpho Knight" at the Waddle Live! Corner Stage, where it is track 85.
Other appearances
The Kirby and the Forgotten Land arrangement was performed live at the Kirby 30th Anniversary Music Festival as part of The Knights' Revenge Medley, along with "Revenge of Meta Knight: Title", "VS. Meta Knight", "Dark Meta Knight", and "The Greatest Warrior in the Galaxy".
