Meta Knight has gained two new costumes. One is based off of his evil Mirror World counterpart, {{s|wikirby|Dark Meta Knight}}, from ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby & the Amazing Mirror}}''. The other is based off of concept art for the canceled [[wikirby:Kirby for Nintendo GameCube|GameCube ''Kirby'' game]], included in the collectible book that came with ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition}}'', which featured a new Meta Knight-like character with a stylized mask and armor that resembles a butterfly. This design would later be used for {{s|wikirby|Morpho Knight}} in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Star Allies}}''.

Meta Knight gets several new costumes in ''[[Project+]]''. His Dark Meta Knight costume has been updated to reflect the ''Star Allies'' design, and he also gets a magenta costume inspired by {{s|wikirby|Galacta Knight}}, which resembles the ''SSBU'' [[:File:Galacta Knight SSBU.png|version]] and features a vertical slit in the middle of the mask. His newly-renamed Morpho Knight costume was given a new sword matching its ''Star Allies'' design and recolors for team battles, including Morpho Knight EX from ''Star Allies'' and {{s|wikirby|Phantom Meta Knight}} from ''Kirby and the Forgotten Land''. The yellow-and-dark brown Morpho palette is inspired by the [[wikirby:Needlous|Needlous]] enemies. He also gains a costume inspired by the Samurai Kirby Sub-Game from ''Kirby Super Star'' with four recolors. His red costume is based on [[Takamaru]] from ''The Mysterious Murasame Castle'', and his golden costume resembles {{s|wikirby|Parallel Meta Knight}} from ''Kirby Star Allies''.

'''Z-Secret Costume:''' NES Meta Knight: Based on Meta Knight's in-game sprite from ''Kirby's Adventure''. Extra details include a thinner horizontal slit, a lack of visible eyes, and Galaxia being replaced with Meta Knight's original straight sword.

'''R-Secret Costume:''' Galacta Knight: Based on Galacta Knight, the final boss of the Meta Knightmare Ultra Sub-Game from ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'', who has subsequently appeared as a hidden boss in multiple ''Kirby'' games.
