In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' a Rocket Barrel is used throughout the final level, [[Rocket Rush (level)|Rocket Rush]]. Here, [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] must use the Rocket Barrel to slowly descend the cliffside. The Rocket Barrel runs on limited fuel, and a meter is displayed on the right side of the screen show the amount of fuel remaining. The fuel supply can only be replenished by [[Fuel Drum]]s. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, the fuel meter was expanded and made more visible: the red represents how much fuel was used while green represents the amount remaining. | In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' a Rocket Barrel is used throughout the final level, [[Rocket Rush (level)|Rocket Rush]].

At the end of the level, the Kongs hit into an [[Ignition Barrel]], causing the Rocket Barrel to rapidly blast upward. During this part, the player must control the Rocket Barrel through the small gaps of the cliffside. If the Rocket Barrel hits into any of the walls, it runs out of fuel much faster. Dixie and Kiddy eventually reach the landing platform, where they get out of the Rocket Barrel and finish the level. | ||

In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, the player can only defeat green Buzzes by pressing left or right on the {{button|gba|pad}} or {{button|gba|A}} to use exhaust near them. The red Buzzes are unaffected by the Rocket Barrel entirely and must only be avoided by the Kongs. If the Rocket Barrel hits into either type of Buzz, the player loses a Kong. | ||
