Masked Dedede appears once again as a boss in Kirby: Triple Deluxe, this time controlled by Taranza and is one of the last bosses in the game, only succeeded by Queen Sectonia and her other forms. The first phase is somewhat similar to his first appearance but, in the second phase, he uses a poleaxe. In Extra Mode, since the player is Dedede, they face Dark Dedede who has many similarities.
