Nintendo Switch 2 (Kirby Forgotten Land + Starcrossed Edition)

What’s New in the Switch 2 Edition + Starcrossed

Kirby’s journey expands in the Switch 2 Edition, offering faster frame rates, sharper visuals, and smoother gameplay on Nintendo’s upgraded hardware. On top of that, the Star-Crossed World expansion adds a fresh story chapter: after a meteor disaster, parts of the environment warp and shift, unlocking Starry Stages, new Mouthful Mode transformations, and additional puzzles to explore. This edition blends the best of the original Forgotten Land with new content tailored for the Switch 2 experience.

Enhanced Performance & Visuals

Optimized for the Nintendo Switch 2, this edition delivers heightened resolution and stable 60 fps gameplay, both docked and handheld. Environments feel more alive, animations smoother, and load times are quicker thanks to improved hardware. The upgrades make familiar areas shine in new light — vines, ruins, cityscapes, and surprises feel more immersive than ever.

Expanded Adventure & Story

The Star-Crossed expansion pushes Kirby into unknown territory. The meteor’s impact fractures the land, introducing new Starry Stages that layer over original levels in unexpected ways. Traversing these altered zones reveals hidden paths, collectibles, and narrative insight. New Mouthful Mode transformations (like Gear Mouth, Sign Mouth, Spring Mouth) provide clever gameplay twists — ride vertical walls, slide across slopes, slam down on enemies, and more. The addition brings fresh puzzles and replay value to veteran players and newcomers alike.

Classic Kirby Mechanics, Refined

At its core, this remains Kirby — float, inhale, and absorb enemy abilities (Copy Abilities) like Fire, Freeze, Hammer, Drill, and more. There’s also co-op support: pass a Joy-Con 2 controller to a friend to play as Bandana Waddle Dee, offering combo opportunities and shared exploration. The upgraded edition retains the heart and charm of Kirby while making it more responsive and rewarding on advanced hardware.
