This peace was not to last as a new Lord of Darkness had already begun orchestrating his plan to use the Princess to create a mixed-blood union between Humans and Demons, allowing the Demons to lord over the Humans, and destroy Arthur once and for all. Arthur barely arrives in time to see the Princess spirited away to the Demons' Black Palace. While fighting his way through this new gauntlet of demons, Arthur uncovers a number of Magic Rings, which open a portal within the depths of the Black Palace. Along the way, Arthur encounters the newest set of minions set against him by the Lord of Darkness, primarily the Sorcerer, Arthror, Death Curse, the Dust Manteater, Vermirous, Slugel, the Spiral Mantruder, a Black Dragon, and the Witches Union. Arthur makes his way into the Palace and faces off with his eternal nemesis Astaroth one final time, entering the portal created from the rings. It is in this dark domain that Arthur encounters the mastermind, Hades. After a long intense battle, Arthur destroys Hades and brings peace back to the Human Realm, with the Princess safe and sound.

The demonic forces attacked the kingdom yet another time, while also targeting the magical Umbral Tree. Using abilities granted by the Umbral Bees who fled the tree, Arthur defeated Astaroth and Lucifer once more and rescued the princess, only to find, upon gathering all the demon orbs, that Hades was again the true mastermind. Upon defeating the ruler of the Demon Realm, Arthur restored peace to the kingdom.


At some point in Arthur's journeys, he encountered an elite Red Arremer demon known as Firebrand and fought against him. Red Arremers have been a constant thorn in Arthur's side in all four of his adventures, being an unpredictable sort of flying demon boasting great speed and endurance, with Firebrand being one of the most well-known among them. It is unknown to what extent the two knew each other, but Arthur had seemingly known of a legendary demon who fought in the War for the Crests and was also known as the "Red Blaze," both of which are descriptions that apply to Firebrand himself. It is implied by the Game Boy Advance release of ''Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts'' that Arthur and Firebrand fought in the Village of Decay during his second adventure into the Demon Realm, with Firebrand wearing a suit of reinforced armor and taking the rank of "Red Arremer Joker," a title belonging to the ruler of other Red Arremers. The two come to a draw with both knight and demon recognizing each other's strength.

Arthur was announced as a {{SSBU|Mii Swordfighter}} costume on March 4th, 2021, and was released later that day, alongside {{SSBU|Pyra}} and {{SSBU|Mythra}}. The costume is based on Arthur's default plate armor design and wields a lance, the default projectile weapon given to the player at the start of most games in the series. The costume's design combines Arthur's design in ''Ultimate Ghosts 'n Goblins'' with the belt from ''Marvel vs. Capcom 3''.

In his reveal trailer, the Mii Swordfighter in the Arthur costume is shown defeating a [[Zombie]] and [[Duck Hunt]], with the first character alluding to the common zombie enemies, while the latter seems to reference the Weredogs from ''Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts'' as well as the common raven enemies in his home series.
