In Dededetour[edit]

Once Lvl. 6 begins, King Dedede plays through all of the EX stages from previous levels and Stage 7 EX first. From there, all remaining stages of Royal Road are played in one sequence inDededetour except for Stage 8 EX and the sections of stages whereHypernova is used. Through this sequence, 6Keychains can be found.

In addition, many enemies are re-sized - changing theirHealth and also possibly movement speed - andQueen Sectonia and themid-bosses are changed to their DX forms.

Finally, in place ofSun Stones, Warp Holes can be found in many areas allowingKing Dedede to skip parts of the stages. In Royal Road, there are 13 Warp Holes in total.

OnceQueen Sectonia DX is defeated, King Dedede is pitted against two more foes, not seen in the main Story Mode. These areShadow Dedede andDark Meta Knight's Revenge.

Trivia[edit]

• Throughout Royal Road, numerous enemies encountered in previous levels now sport an insectoid design. These enemies are referred to with the prefix "Sectra", and includeSectra Dees,Sectra Burts,Sectra Gordos,Sectra Knights, andSectra Shooters.
  • However, Stage 7 EX features both Sectra and normal variants of enemies that would otherwise be Sectra only.
