What is Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star-Crossed World?
In our review of Kirby and the Forgotten Land, we highlighted its successful transition into the third dimension, maintaining the series' beloved mix of ability-based combat, platforming, and secret hunting. The post-apocalyptic setting adds a unique twist to the vibrant world of Planet Popstar, with cleverly designed levels that smartly utilize Kirby's abilities. The Nintendo Switch 2 version enhances this experience with improved graphics and introduces the Star-Crossed World expansion. According to Nintendo, in this new adventure, "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."
