The '''AR Battle Mode '''is a brand new feature introduced in ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''. This mode allows players to utilize the [[Nintendo]] 3DS's Augmented Reality (AR) mechanic to engage in battles using official ''[[Kid Icarus]]'' collectable cards, which will spawn characters using the device's cameras. Each copy of the game comes with six random cards. A list of the known cards can be found [[List_of_Kid_Icarus:_Uprising_AR_Cards|here]].

When the arrows located at the bottom of each AR card are lined up, battle commences. Each card has four attributes: attack, health (HP), speed, and type.  The higher the speed, the more often a card attacks, subtracting its attack strength from the opponent's health. When a card's health hits zero, it loses. Attack and possibly speed are increased when a card's type beats the other's. Shield beats sword, which in turn beats magic, which beats shield. Class does not affect battle, and no random or skill based factors are used.
