The Fury Sun is an object that appears in the Bowser's Fury campaign of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury. It sits in the middle of Lake Lapcat and takes the form of a spiky blob of goop that resembles Bowser's Spike Ball form in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story and the Super Mario Galaxy games, as well as the spiky shells he throws in his Super Mario Odyssey battles. Fury Bowser sleeps in the Fury Sun when he is not actively rampaging.

During gameplay, the Fury Sun slowly rises from the large mass of black goop found at the center of Lake Lapcat. Eventually, it begins to spin rapidly before quickly launching into the air. When this occurs, it starts raining and ominous music plays to signify Fury Bowser is about to become active. Each time Fury Bowser becomes active, a cutscene plays showing him bursting out from the Fury Sun. This usually happens at intervals of roughly six minutes, but scanning any Bowser amiibo in the game causes him to appear instantly.[1]

After some time, or if the player collects a Cat Shine, Fury Bowser stops attacking and retreats back into the Fury Sun to recover. If this occurs due to some time passing, Fury Bowser will retreat during gameplay, but if a Cat Shine is collected, a cutscene will play showing the Cat Shine causing a nearby lighthouse to activate or shine brighter, and the light forcing Fury Bowser to shield his eyes and retreat. If the player enters a Cloud Cannon or a golden Warp Pipe during Fury Bowser's rampage, when they exit from the sub-room, Fury Bowser will appear back in the Fury Sun without having retreated. If a rampage begins while the player has 47 Cat Shines, Fury Bowser will not re-enter the Fury Sun until the final battle is completed and the credits are viewed.
