First of we see Artist Kirby, Kirby can let his creativity run free and you can attack enemies with drawn creations. Then we see Spider Kirby, which can capture enemies in his webs.

Additionally, for the first time since Kirby: Mouse Attack it’s possible to mix merge abilities with each other to use for example Zap Yo-Yo.

From March 16th we can start Kirby’s first Nintendo Switch adventure in Kirby Star Allies. Will you buy the new Kirby game?
