The creature has a unique technological design with numerous digital membranes lining its head and parts of its tentacles. Unlike the typical octopus, the Space Kraken also only has four tentacles that are long enough to help it climb out of water.

Idol Description
A hulking leviathan making its home in the Galactic Sea. People, monsters, and even starships are no match for the Kraken's gaping maw. The scent of Pit's battle with the Space Pirates piques the monster's hunger, endangering everyone.
Trivia
- The Space Kraken is based on the legendary Kraken, said to be a massive squid-like monster of Norse mythology.
- The Space Kraken bears a striking resemblance to Octoroks of the Legend of Zelda series, having a similar color scheme and mouth structure.
- Because it resembles Octoroks, it also resembles Octoombas from Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2 where it was a direct reference to Octoroks and also appeared in space.
