Kirby and the World Beyond is the pink hero's brand-new 3D platforming adventure developed by HAL Laboratory for Nintendo Switch 2, released as part of the franchise's 35th-anniversary celebrations. Building upon the gameplay foundation set by Kirby and the Forgotten Land, the title expands into a vast free-exploration world where Kirby breaks through the boundaries of his home realm to uncover an unknown universe packed with vibrant biomes, secrets, and interactions. Players can leverage revamped absorption mechanics and copy abilities in far more creative ways, using them not only to battle enemies and bosses but also to manipulate surroundings, open fresh paths, and solve environmental puzzles in a charming fantasy journey.
