Bosses
- Very Gnawty
- A giant Gnawty is the boss of the Kongo Jungle. Very Gnawty attacks by hopping around in a fury. He can be dispatched with simply three stomps to the head.
- Master Necky Jr.
- Master Necky Jr. is the giant Necky who serves as the boss of the Monkey Mines. He is so large that only his neck and head appear onscreen. He appears from either side of the screen and attempts to spit eggs at Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong. He can be dispatched through several hits to the head, although the Kongs had to bounce off of a tire to reach his head. He later teams up with his father, Master Necky Sr., in the Chimp Caverns boss battle but they are both defeated.
- Queen Bumble B
- A titanic Zinger is the boss of Vine Valley. She buzzes back and forth, and can be harmed by tossing a barrel into her vulnerable stinger. However, after being struck there, Bumble B would turn red and buzz back and forth in a temporarily invincible state. Eventually Queen Bumble B would revert to her yellow form and be vulnerable to attack again. After enough barrels, Queen Bumble B was defeated. She is presumably the wife of King Zing.
- Really Gnawty
- The boss of Gorilla Glacier is another giant Gnawty, this one with lighter fur and lighter feet. It's attacks were mostly the same as Very Gnawty's, except that it was faster. Like Very Gnawty, the Kongs had to bounce on its head until it collapsed.
- Boss Dumb Drum
- A giant and sentient drum of radioactive waste is the boss of Kremkroc Industries, Inc. Boss Dumb Drum, instead of battling directly, produces other creatures to fight for it. After the creatures were defeated, the Kongs could pick up a TNT Barrel and use it to harm Boss Dumb Drum. This pattern continued until Boss Dumb Drum was destroyed.
- Master Necky Sr.
- The father of Master Necky Jr., Master Necky Sr. is the boss of the Chimp Caverns and the second-to-last boss of the game. He is about the same size as his son and has most of the same abilities. In the boss battle he teams up with Master Necky Jr. against DK and Diddy, but they are defeated.
- King K. Rool
- The game's final boss is King K. Rool himself, battled on the deck of the Gangplank Galleon. He could be harmed by stomping on his head while it was exposed, whenever he tossed his crown. In the first phase he tossed his crown and ran back and forth around on the ship. In the second phase he would jump from one side of the screen to the other while cannonballs dropped to crush the Kongs. Afterwards K. Rool is apparently defeated, and a fake "Kredits" roll, but Rool recovers and attacks again, this time hopping around and tossing his crown. After this final phase, K. Rool is defeated.
