For those out of the loop, Kirby Star Allies (2018) was the series’ return to home consoles ever since Kirby’s Return to Dreamland (2011). The new entry gave Kirby the ability convert enemies into playable allies – on top of multiplayer support for 4 players.

Since its release, the game has received many contents updates, bumping up the game to around 37 characters and 4 unique modes. Get a closer peek at our previous coverage of the game, starting here.
