Kirby & The Forgotten Land Video Shows Funny Elden Ring Similarity
As it turns out, Kirby and The Forgotten Land lets players take the form of one of Elden Ring's most unusual and difficult opponents, seen in a video that showcases a similarity between the two games. Kirby’s latest adventure takes his trademark ability to copy the powers of anything he inhales to new levels with Mouthful Mode, which allows the cute pink creature to stretch himself into the shape of larger objects. The most famous and noteworthy of these new modes is Kirby and the Forgotten Land's Carby, a form that sees Kirby draped over a rusty old automobile like a cute pink dust cover. There are other Mouthful Mode forms in the game, such as a vending machine and traffic cone, and Nintendo recently promoted the new game by releasing special Mouthful Mode-themed Switch OLED boxes in Japan.
Meanwhile, Kirby and The Forgotten Land shares a few traits with Elden Ring, another open-world title that was released earlier this year, and pits players against a wide variety of different monsters. However, the similarities seemingly end there: while Kirby is colorful, lighthearted, and rather easy in terms of difficulty, Elden Ring is dark, gory, and incredibly challenging in the tradition of other FromSoftware releases like Dark Souls and Bloodborne. Still, it looks like fans of both are finding a few more common elements among these tonally different open-world titles.
