Curious about why Dedede is suddenly buff?? So am I! I don’t have any answers for you, apart from the fact that Kirby Star Allies has been officially announced for the Switch and Dedede is really buff in the trailer! Additionally, Kirby: Battle Royale for the 3DS has been announced!
Kirby Star Allies
Kirby Star Allies is a delightful new Switch game where you make friends with the power of love! No seriously, you throw hearts at up to three enemies to get them to team up with you. You can play with up to three other friends in the co-op mode or go it alone with computer buddies.
There’s also power combo-ing! Mix up your powers with other allies for new effects! Combine one players ESP ability with stone to smash some stuff with some stone.
It’s announced as coming in Spring 2018 so… Autumn 2018 for us Australians.
Watch the trailer here.
Kirby: Battle Royale
I recently watched the original Battle Royale but don’t worry, this isn’t going to get that intense.
Oh.
Kirby: Battle Royale is a single or online multiplayer battle game where Kirby battles other Kirby’s. It’s got 10 different battle modes, including Arena fights, story, 4 player matches and a racing one where you must hoard the most treasure to go faster than everyone else! It’s coming to the 3DS, and coming out January 19th 2018.
Watch the trailer here:
It’s great to see more titles coming starring everybody’s favourite anthropomorphic pink blob – even if it means they are going to tear each other to shreds. Which title are you more excited about?
