A '''final boss''' (sometimes referred to as a '''last boss''') is the term often used to describe the last [[boss]] in a video game. The [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] is no stranger to this idea, with a majority of games having one or more final bosses. Final bosses aren't distinguished just by whether the credits roll after their defeat, but are often given their own unique level, such as [[The Fountain of Dreams (level)|The Fountain of Dreams]] or [[Mind in the Program]], and may occasionally be a secret villain or twist villain such as [[Dark Matter]] or [[Marx]]. Some final bosses use moves that work in a similar way to moves used by previous level bosses, building on what Kirby has learned over the course of his adventure. Others still are actually false final bosses, only allowing access to the "true" final boss once certain milestones have been reached.

A '''final boss''' (sometimes referred to as a '''last boss''') is the last [[boss]] in a video game, or a specific mode within a game. The [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] is no stranger to this idea, with a majority of games having at least one final boss. Final bosses are almost always the strongest foes in their respective games or modes, taking the longest to defeat and having multiple phases. Final bosses are often fought in their own [[level]] at the end of a game's [[Story Mode]], such as [[The Fountain of Dreams (level)|The Fountain of Dreams]] or [[Mind in the Program]], though this is not always the case. Often, [[Extra Mode]]s also have their own final bosses, whether it be a complete unique boss or a variant of the Story Mode's final boss. On few occasions, the "true" final boss of a game's Story Mode can only be accessed once a certain milestone has been reached, with the penultimate boss of the game only being a final boss in the [[bad ending]]. The many [[Boss Endurance]] modes found throughout the series naturally also have final bosses. In most Boss Endurance modes, such as [[The Arena]], the final boss is a mostly unaltered version of the Story Mode's final boss, but tougher variants or difficulties, such as [[The True Arena]], almost always have a unique final boss, with the most common examples being [[:Category:Soul bosses|Soul bosses]].
