{{articleIcons|ssbu=y}}
[[File:SmashGigaB.jpg|thumb|300px|{{SSBU|Link}} before the [[Giga Bowser|boss]] at the end of the Molten Fortress.]]
The '''Molten Fortress''' ({{ja|溶岩城|Yōgan-jō}}, ''Lava Castle'') is a sub-world found in [[The Light Realm]] within [[Adventure Mode: World of Light|Adventure Mode]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It is located in the north-central region above the Cliffside Rapids, and unlike other sub-worlds in the Light Realm, it does not require a certain type of Spirit to reach it. It is themed after the castle stages within the [[Mario (universe)|''Super Mario'' series]], and as such, P-Switches and Pipes are required for use in order to progress to the boss, [[Giga Bowser]]. The area's background music is ''{{SSBUMusicLink|Super Mario Bros.|Castle / Boss Fortress - Super Mario World / SMB 3}}''.

==Spirits==
The spirits found here are generally characters found in castles or ones associated with fire and lava. Spirits are ordered by when they are encountered on the map, up until the boss.
