Kirby’s Dream Buffet – Worldwide launch August 17th

Japan just had the Kirby 30th anniversary concert, and the team had a special announcement to make. Kirby Dream Buffet, a recently announced multiplayer game, will be available on the Nintendo Switch eShop on August 17 for 1500 yen. The west hasn’t been given a date yet, but hopefully it will come out on the same day here as it does there. The game, which looks like it was based on the popular Fall Guys, was shown off by the company on its social media accounts last month.

About Kirby’s Dream Buffet

A very crowded race!

In Kirby’s Dream Buffet for Nintendo Switch, you eat your way to victory as you roll through levels with food themes.

A Grand Prix for Food

This full, four-course competition is a feast for the senses. Up to four hungry Kirbys have to race, play minigames, and fight it out on crunchy, creamy courses filled with chocolate, ice cream, and other tasty treats.

First, there was a race to get a pile of strawberries! The rules are easy: roll down the track and eat as many strawberries as you can. The more you eat, the bigger you get and the faster you roll.

Keep Kirby’s momentum going by avoiding tasty enemies or zipping past them with tasty Copy Food abilities.

The next thing on the menu is a small minigame. As sweet strawberries fall in the arena, you can jump and bump into other players who are also hungry.

Hungry for more? Before the next sugary stage, win another race by giving your opponents the wrong move.

Then you should get ready for the Battle Royale! In this tasty, timed challenge, give your opponents what they deserve. Knock them off the stage, eat their strawberries, and keep your own stash safe. Don’t worry, if you fall off, you can just float back and try again.

Weigh-in time has finally come. The winner is the most well-rounded and heavy Kirby.

You really are what you eat

You can find tasty Copy Foods in Food Boxes that are scattered around race tracks and Battle Royale stages. With these tasty abilities, Kirby can become a Stone Chocolate that can knock enemies away, a Burning Pepper that can burn through obstacles quickly, and a lot more. Take a look:

A party for people

It’s always better to eat with friends. You can invite them to play Kirby’s Dream Buffet in person or online.

You can play 1 vs. 1 on the same console, test your snacking skills against three other people in the same room with local wireless multiplayer, or use a shared password to play online against friends who live far away.

Want more people to compete with? In online multiplayer, you can play against people from all over the world.

Delicious clothes and treats

Who wants a little more? If you eat a lot of strawberries, your Gourmet Rank will go up, giving you access to a lot of tasty extras. Unlock new colors for Kirby and a bunch of fun costumes, some of which will look like people you know.

As you play, you’ll also be able to get Kirby-themed biscuits that you can use to decorate your cake.
