'''The True Arena''' is an [[Extra Game]] mode that has featured in every main series [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'']] title since ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'' introduced it, except for ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''. It is similar to [[The Arena]], but - like the name suggests - it is a more challenging version, featuring more/tougher [[Boss]]es to be fought in sequence, and less recovery items and [[Copy Ability|copy abilities]] available along the way. The True Arena is intended to serve as the final and toughest challenge in the games it appears in, and always features at least one [[Boss]] that does not appear elsewhere in the host game. | '''The True Arena''' is an [[Extra Game]] mode that has featured in every main series [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'']] title since ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'' introduced it, except for ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''.

“ | Deluxe bosses wait in the wings as the curtain rises on the final battle! It's a known-down, drag-out fight all the way to the nightmare four. The True Arena awaits! | ” | — Kirby: Triple Deluxe quote for The True Arena |
The True Arena is an Extra Game mode that has featured in every main series Kirby title since Kirby Super Star Ultra introduced it, except for Kirby Star Allies. It is similar to The Arena, but - like the name suggests - it is a more challenging version, featuring more/tougher Bosses to be fought in sequence, and less recovery items and copy abilities available along the way. The True Arena is intended to serve as the final and toughest challenge in the games it appears in, and always features at least one Boss that does not appear elsewhere in the host game.
Completing The True Arena is a requirement for 100% Completion of the games it appears in. It is hidden from the menu at first, but then typically appears at some point after The Arena is cleared, with doing so being one of multiple unlocking criteria.

Kirby fights all the bosses that did not appear in the original Kirby Super Star here. This mode is unlocked when all other modes of the game are completed, including the Arena.
