Play Overview
Kirby and the Forgotten Land (2022) is a running, jumping game where you explore a mysterious world with Nintendo's famous character who can inhale enemies to gain their powers. It offers a larger, more explorable 3D world than other Kirby games and works well with two players teaming up to take on the challenges.
You play Kirby and run around freely in the 3D stages. To battle enemies, you can use a range of basic attacks that are augmented when you inhale characters and gain new powers. As you progress through the levels you discover abandoned architecture from a current-day forgotten past.
Between the main levels, you can explore Waddle Dee Town which acts as a central hub where you can shop for customisations, play mini-games or even work at the Café. As you save more Waddle Dees the hub area develops and offers more options and things to buy.
Our examiner, Jo Robertson, first checked Kirby and the Forgotten Land 2 years ago. It was re-examined by Andy Robertson and updated 6 months ago.
