World 8 is the penultimate world in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, the final one being World 9. World 8 consists of lava, volcanoes, and dark clouds.

Although the second to final world, this world is the final part and conclusion of the story in the game. Once finishing this world, the story is finished and World 9 is unlocked.

The world itself consists of many fiery landscapes, erupting volcanoes, lava caverns, and more. Common enemies in this world include Buzzy Beetles, Dry Bones, Crowbers, Mecha-Koopas, Bob-ombs, Podoboos (which are also seen in the world's enemy course between World 8-3 and World 8-Tower on the bridge.), and Fire Chomps. The fortress here leads to a fight with Kamek, who previously in the game is only seen enhancing the Koopalings when the heroes reach them in castles. This world also features the third and final fight with Bowser Jr., once again on an airship. The final level features the two-part final battle with Bowser, who is not once seen in the game up until that point.

The levels of this world commonly take place amidst oceans of lava commonly featuring Lava Plumes erupting from these seas. Volcanic Smoke is formed from the volcanoes around this world and follows you throughout one of the levels. Raining Debris also erupts from the volcanoes in the background. There are also lava caverns which consist of rolling hills and lava hills which create a much large hazard. This world also is home to the Bonecoaster which you can hitch a ride on to cross a sea of lava much quicker.
