What is Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star-Crossed World?
Our review of Kirby and the Forgotten Land praised its successful transition into 3D, maintaining the series' charm with ability-based combat, platforming, and secret hunting. The game's post-apocalyptic setting, while different from Planet Popstar, offers vibrant and cleverly designed levels that make excellent use of Kirby's abilities. The Nintendo Switch 2 version enhances this with improved graphics and the Star-Crossed World expansion. According to Nintendo, in this new content, "Kirby must use his amazing abilities, including some all-new Mouthful Modes, to clear a trail through uncharted territory after the world is struck by a powerful meteor."
