Kirby and the World Beyond: Game Announcement for Switch 2
The plump pink puffball prepares for his return
Do you prefer Metroid or Kirby? The question might sound strange, but determining which was the main announcement of the Nintendo Direct could come down to a matter of taste between these two franchises. On one side, we find Metroid Ravenous, while on the other there's Kirby and the World Beyond: Nintendo has decided to unveil new installments for both franchises simultaneously.
First Info on Kirby and the World Beyond
Judging by the announcement trailer, Kirby and the World Beyond appears to re-propose the series' classic platforming gameplay, with Kirby's usual copy ability that allows him to emulate what he absorbs. The title's peculiarity lies in its setting, a large open world to explore freely, which will reveal itself to be only a portion of an even larger, more mysterious world.
When and Where Kirby and the World Beyond Releases
The launch window for Kirby and the World Beyond has been set for spring 2027. You will be able to venture into the world beyond exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2.
