A reveal trailer for a brand-new Kirby game has been revealed in today's Nintendo Direct .

The short version

  • Called Kirby and the World Beyond, the game is headed to the Nintendo Switch 2 in Spring, 2027.
  • The game has a very vibrant, colourful aesthetic as is the norm with the Kirby series.
  • Kirby is seen running through luscious green pastures, leaping across logs and other rushing across bridges.

What happened

You can suck up enemies, of course, providing Kirby new abilities that come in handy during combat and open world traversal. Kirby's Sword Copy ability also be seen - a long-running with Kirby charging around with the Master Sword and using it to quickly ascend vertically.

Why it matters

King Dedede is also present as a boss, who Kirby knocks through a Truman Show-style wall in the horizon.
