Game8’s guide lists 150 objectives and their rewards; Nintendo confirms the mode and checklist system, but does not publish the complete mission list. The objectives and reward labels below follow Game8’s guide, last updated December 9, 2025, and may differ by localization or a later update.
How the Road Trip checklist works
Nintendo describes Road Trip as a mode that combines challenges from Air Ride, City Trial and Top Ride—including races, battles and Field Events—with opportunities to collect machines and items between challenges. The game has five Checklist tabs: Air Ride, Top Ride, City Trial, Road Trip and Online. As Nintendo put it in its October 23, 2025 announcement of the second Kirby Air Riders Direct, “As you clear certain objectives, a Checklist box gets flipped over.” Those completed boxes contribute to unlockable content.

The 150-objective count and the objective-specific rewards below come from Game8’s guide, not an official Nintendo-published total. Nintendo’s announcement does not provide the full mission table. The first objective in Game8’s list also shows that seeing the ending alone is not enough for its reward: it requires defeating the true final boss and filling at least 140 Checklist blocks.
