For those who already own the original version of Kirby and the Forgotten Land, there's a cost-saving option.

This allows current owners to upgrade without repurchasing the entire game, saving money in the process.

What is Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star-Crossed World?

In our review of Kirby and the Forgotten Land, we noted, "Kirby and the Forgotten Land successfully warps the series’ already fun mix of ability-based combat, platforming, and secret hunting into the third dimension. The post-apocalyptic setting may not be as thematically interesting as Planet Popstar, but it is still lovely and vibrant, with cleverly designed levels that make consistently smart use of Kirby’s abilities. Despite the change in perspective, Forgotten Land maintains most of what I love about classic Kirby games – and if the future means more 3D adventures for our hungry pink hero, I’d be more than happy to swallow them up."

This Nintendo Switch 2 version enhances the original game with improved graphics and introduces the Star-Crossed World expansion. Nintendo describes this new content as follows: “Kirby must use his amazing abilities, including some all-new Mouthful Modes, to clear a trail through uncharted territory after the world is struck by a powerful meteor.”
