Kirby and The Forgotten Land Review Roundup: Kirby At His Best
Reviews are in for Kirby and The Forgotten Land, and critics can’t seem to get enough of the adorable pink puffball’s latest Nintendo Switch adventure. Nintendo and developer HAL Laboratory had supposedly kept the development of their newest Kirby project under wraps for about five years before unveiling Kirby and The Forgotten Lands during last September’s Nintendo Direct livestream with a trailer that promised to take the long-running platforming series in a new direction. Kirby and The Forgotten Land’s reveal trailer featured a ruined open-world city not unlike The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild and Super Mario Odyssey, and the game’s plot has Kirby exploring the many environments of this new landscape and battling enemies like the claw-wielding feline Clawroline as he tries to rescue the Waddle Dees from the evil Beast Pack.
In the many months leading up to Kirby and The Forgotten Land’s release later this week, Nintendo has been slowly but steadily pulling back the curtains on the game’s many new features. On top of Kirby’s usual ability to copy his enemies’ powers by inhaling them, Kirby and The Forgotten Land adds shooting mechanics and the new Mouthful Mode, which allows Kirby to stretch his balloon-like body over larger objects like cars and take control of them. There is also two-player co-op, with Bandana Dee returning to help Kirby journey through the titular Forgotten Land. Kirby and The Forgotten Land is said to be somewhat darker than past Kirby games as well, as it is the first in the series to receive a “Fear” warning from the Pan European Game Information ratings board.
