'''Grand Prix''' is an offline single-player or co-op mode in which the player attempts to defeat 10 [[fighters]] in a row, before (potentially) facing a final boss. It includes a mix of fights and sporting events, and while [[Biff]] commentates during intermissions, providing useful information to the player. | '''Grand Prix''' is an offline single-player or co-op mode in which the player attempts to defeat 10 [[fighters]] in a row, before (potentially) facing a final boss.

{{spoiler| | |||
The premise of this mode is that each fighter is trying to become champion of the ARMS Grand Prix. At the beginning of the mode, Biff explains the motivation of the fighter you chose. If the player chooses Dr. Coyle, she will introduce herself instead. | |||
The mode itself doesn't have an explicit plot, although several events do occur during it. | |||
After beating every other rival fighter, the player will eventually reach the Grand Finale against [[Max Brass]], a veteran fighter who uses championship belts to form his elastic ARMS. Before long, you are thrust into battle, and, upon beating Max, the game ends; if the player is in difficulty level 4 to 5, however, [[Hedlok]] descends from above, brainwashing Max. The player must then fight Hedlok to win the Grand Prix; upon succeeding, Hedlok flies off, leaving Max unscathed, before the Awards Ceremony begins. The Grand Prix mode then ends. | |||
On level 5 or higher, [[Dr. Coyle]] will teleport into the ring during Max Brass' introduction, and attack him. After a brief battle, Coyle knocks Brass out of the ring, and challenges the player to a fight. When Coyle is defeated, she calls her "masterpiece" Hedlok, and is willfully taken over by it. Like in the lower difficulties, the player must defeat Hedlok to proceed. If the player succeeds, Hedlok explodes, and Dr. Coyle teleports away, arms crossed. The camera pans over to see Max Brass, safely floating down on a pair of [[Parasol|Parasols]]. He strikes a heroic pose for the camera as he lands. From here, the same ending occurs. | |||
