Kirby and the Forgotten Land Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star-Crossed World
Launching on August 28, this premium edition is priced at $79.99. You can find it at Target or Walmart. Yes, you read that right: $80 for this enhanced version and the new expansion. It's a hefty price tag, but if you're a Kirby fan, this could be the ultimate experience you're looking for.
Upgrade Pack Available Separately
Good news for those who already own the original game on the Switch. The Nintendo Switch 2 Edition comes with the original game and the upgrade pack. If you already have the base game, you can purchase the upgrade pack separately to enjoy the enhanced features at a lower cost.
What is Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star-Crossed World?
From our review of Kirby and the Forgotten Land: "Kirby and the Forgotten Land successfully transforms the series' already engaging mix of ability-based combat, platforming, and secret hunting into a 3D experience. While the post-apocalyptic setting might not be as thematically rich as Planet Popstar, it remains vibrant and lovely, with cleverly designed levels that smartly utilize Kirby's abilities. Despite the shift to a 3D perspective, Forgotten Land retains the charm of classic Kirby games—and if this signals more 3D adventures for our beloved pink hero, I'm eager to dive in."
This Nintendo Switch 2 version not only includes the full original game with upgraded graphics but also adds the Star-Crossed World expansion. According to Nintendo, "Kirby must use his incredible abilities, including new Mouthful Modes, to navigate through unexplored territories after a powerful meteor strikes the world."
