'''Dread Kong''' is a large, intimidating [[Kong]], a member of the [[Kong (boss group)|Kong boss group]], and the king of the first world of ''[[Donkey Kong Jungle Beat]]'', the [[Banana Kingdom]]. Dread Kong is fought on the treetops, and must be punched multiple times to be defeated.

Dread Kong later appears in the end ceremony where him and the other Evil Kings celebrate Donkey Kong's victory over the [[Ghastly King]].

In the [[List of Donkey Kong Jungle Beat pre-release and unused content|pre-release version]] of ''Donkey Kong Jungle Beat'', a villainous, gray-furred Donkey Kong with glowing, red pupils was fought instead of Dread Kong.

An unused trophy of Dread Kong appears in the game files for ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''.<ref>[[tcrf:Super Smash Bros. Brawl/Unused Graphics#Unused Trophies|TCRF]]</ref>
