'''Special 8''' is the eighth and final special world that appears in the [[3DS]] game, ''[[Super Mario 3D Land]]''. It features seven levels and a [[Toad House]]. Except {{world-link|s8|crown|Special 8-Crown}}, all levels in Special 8 must be unlocked by collecting a certain amount of [[Star Medal]]s, with the amount growing by ten with each level. Instead of a remix of World 8's music, Special 8 instead rearranges the [[Mario Drawing Song]]. When Special 8-Crown is unlocked, that music is remixed, featuring more bass.  

Special 8, unlike all other special worlds, does not imitate World 8 to any extent, and as such, is the only truly original special world. It takes place in a light yellow meadow that highly resembles [[World 1 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 1]] from ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'', with large blocks, the same ground texture, and small hills highly resembling the ones found in ''Super Mario Bros. 3''. It takes place in a light yellow plain with [[Block]]s, [[Coin]]s and [[Warp Pipe]]s in the background. What sets this apart from the other Special Worlds is that while the others have all the levels available to begin with, the player must clear each level to access the next one (not unlike the progression of the regular worlds).

|A harder version of World 1-2 with the time set to 30 seconds, has the [[Cosmic Clone]], and with the player starting near the exit and going backwards. Requires 230 [[Star Medal]]s to be unlocked.

|A harder version of World 8-3 but the platforms spin faster; the only level in the world without the time set to 30 seconds or having the [[Cosmic Clone]]s. Requires 240 [[Star Medal]]s to be unlocked.

|A harder version of {{world-link|5|castle|World 5-Castle (Super Mario 3D Land)}} and {{world-link|5|castle|Special 5-Castle}} with the time set to 30 seconds and a massive [[Cosmic Clone]]. Requires 250 [[Star Medal]]s to be unlocked.

|A harder version of World 8-6 with the time set to 30 seconds. Requires 260 [[Star Medal]]s to be unlocked.

|A harder version of {{world|7|airship}} with a massive [[Cosmic Clone]]. There is no boss. Requires 270 [[Star Medal]]s to be unlocked.

|The true final stage, and the hardest level in the game. When unlocked, this stage replaces the pipe going between Special 8 and World 8; as a result, the pipe in World 8 disappears. To unlock this course, the player must have five stars in his or her profile. In order to obtain the five stars, the player must do the following:

|type1=audio

|name1=Special World 8 music

|pipe1=Special 8

|length1=1:46
