Galeem (キーラ, Kiira) is a character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's World of Light mode, described as the "ultimate enemy" in the World of Light. Prior to the events of the mode, Galeem attacks the fighters, commanding an army of Master Hands. It seemingly destroys all but Kirby and engulfs the entire universe in a burst of light, leaving the world a barren wasteland inhabited by hostile Spirits and dark versions of the fighters.
