In [[Adventure Mode: World of Light]], Boo is presumably one of the countless spirits captured by [[Galeem]] during his takeover of the universe. After Galeem's defeat, [[Dharkon]] takes control of Galeem's spirits, including Boo. Boo's spirit is located in the [[Dracula's Castle (World of Light)|Dracula's Castle]] sub-dungeon of [[The Dark Realm]].

Boo's Spirit Battle uses a {{SSBU|Kirby}} puppet fighter and is fought on the [[Mushroom Kingdom U]] stage's Slide Tower layout. During the battle, Kirby frequently shields and turns invisible, referencing how Boos cannot be defeated under normal circumstances and turns invisible when faced by the player.
