Kalimba later appears during the final boss fight along with the eight other Tiki leaders where he transforms into one of Tiki Tong's hands and is used to fight the ape. This world serves as the headquarters of the Tiki Tak Tribe, as well as the area that the Tiki Tong Tower resides, which is seen staring at the Kongs all throughout the game, until Tiki.

Volcano is the eighth (and penultimate) world of Donkey Kong Country Returns and Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D with eight levels. After a long fight, Donkey Kong was able to defeat the beast and knock Kalimba out of it. Angered by this, Donkey Kong prepared to fight Kalimba but the devious Tiki used his hypnotic powers to possess and control Mugly into fighting DK. After getting through all the Jungle's obstacles, DK finally arrived at Kalimba's coliseum base where it was apparently feeding DK's bananas to Mugly. However this would not be the end of Kalimba who continued to make sure that its hypnotized minions would hinder Donkey Kong's progress, but to no avail as DK continued to defeat enemy after enemy, as he proceeded through the Jungle's paths. To ensure that it would receive no trouble from the hoard's owner, Donkey Kong, it attempted to hypnotize him and make him one of its unwilling slaves, however its hypnotic powers had no affect on the big ape who then proceeded to deliver a massive beat down on the conniving Tiki and then sent it flying with a swift punch. After his release, Kalimba went across the Jungle hypnotizing all its inhabitants, which he used to steal all the bananas on the island, including Donkey Kong's Banana Hoard.
