What is Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star-Crossed World?

From our Kirby and the Forgotten Land review: “Kirby and the Forgotten Land successfully transforms the series’ enjoyable mix of ability-based combat, platforming, and secret hunting into the third dimension. The post-apocalyptic setting might not be as thematically engaging as Planet Popstar, but it remains beautiful and vibrant, featuring cleverly designed levels that cleverly utilize Kirby’s abilities. Despite the shift to a 3D perspective, Forgotten Land retains most of what I love about classic Kirby games – and if the future brings more 3D adventures for our beloved pink hero, I’m more than ready to dive in.”

This Nintendo Switch 2 version includes the entire original game with upgraded graphics, alongside the Star-Crossed World expansion. Nintendo describes the new content as follows: “Kirby must harness his incredible abilities, including new Mouthful Modes, to navigate through unexplored territories after a meteor strike disrupts the world.”
