So seeing as there are bosses in this game, how would everyone feel about a boss rush mode? Do you think it is likely?

For those who don't know, boss rushes are where you face one boss after another usually with only one life. Also usually with a timer.

As a Kirby fan who has been through the arena modes countless times, I myself would love to see it.

What I wouldn't like to see is a boss rush thrown into the main campaign for the sake of padding before the final boss, but as another mode it would be great to me.

This is a great idea. The boss designs look really interesting so far, and it'd be interesting to have a boss rush within this game.
Maybe there'll be a secret area in the main campaign that will give you access to boss rush mode?

This definitely sounds really cool! If this were in the game I'm sure like 90% of my time would go to just playing this, haha. ^^;

I wonder if there would be a reward for completing the boss rush? It might just be a time trial type deal though.

I also doubt they would pull a Kirby and have the true final boss only in the boss rush. Wouldn't even make much sense in that context.

Certainly! You can easily reward players with gold or just straight-up give them some items for multiplayer if they complete these modes. Gold would probably be more fair, that way unique items aren't blocked off from players that can't pass the mode or just don't want to do it. Unless the item rewards are randomized, that is. It's a nice bonus to me though. I'm usually only a fan of them half of the time, but if it gets me something nice, I'll do it for sure.
