Kirby and the Forgotten Land – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star-Crossed World Gets Overview Trailer
Initially launching in 2022 for the Nintendo Switch, Kirby and the Forgotten Land will receive a Nintendo Switch 2 Edition later this month. Alongside graphical improvements, including better performance and a higher resolution, it also offers Star-Crossed World, a brand-new story.
To outline the various changes, Nintendo has released a new overview trailer. Star-Crossed World focuses on the crash of a mysterious meteor and Kirby’s quest to collect Starries and prevent an evil presence from emerging. You’ll revisit old stages to do so, but the meteor’s influence has opened paths into new areas that were previously inaccessible and added new abilities to the Beast Pack.
Even the bosses are powered up, though new threats also await. Kirby has some new Mouthful Modes, including Spring Mouth for higher jumps, Gear Mouth for latching and rolling on walls, and Sign Mouth for sliding on slopes. Other collectibles include Starry Coins, which can be spent on new figures, and a new Arena challenge, the Ultimate Cup ZEX, also awaits.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land – Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star-Crossed World launches on August 28th for $79.99. An Upgrade Pack for Switch 1 owners is also available for $19.99.
