Nintendo’s beloved pink mascot returns to the spotlight as Kirby and the Forgotten Land Switch 2 Edition officially launches today, now enhanced with the anticipated Star-Crossed World expansion.

This latest update for Kirby and the Forgotten Land on the Nintendo Switch 2 aims to capture the hearts of platformer fans once more, offering fresh gameplay experiences alongside a suite of exclusive My Nintendo rewards. Developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo, Kirby and the Forgotten Land originally debuted on the Nintendo Switch to critical acclaim, known for its creative 3D platforming and whimsical worlds.

The new Switch 2 Edition enhances core visuals and performance, while the Star-Crossed World expansion introduces additional levels, novel challenges, and inventive Mouthful Modes that further broaden Kirby’s abilities across mysterious environments. As part of the launch celebrations, Nintendo has rolled out a new physical reward for fans via the My Nintendo loyalty program: the Tote Kirby bag.

This exclusive tote features Kirby prominently on one side, with the adventurous Kirby and Elfilin exploring together on the reverse.

Eligible My Nintendo users can redeem Tote Kirby by exchanging 600 Platinum Points through the rewards portal, adding a collectible flair to their Kirby fandom. To mark this milestone, Nintendo is also hosting Kirby’s Starry Sweepstakes—a limited-time contest offering members the chance to win coveted Kirby-themed prizes.

For just 10 Platinum Points per entry (with a maximum of five entries per account), users can vie for items such as a Nendoroid Kirby figure, a PowerA Wired Controller bearing Kirby’s likeness, and a plush replica of Car Kirby.

The sweepstakes is open through October 31, concluding at 11 PM Pacific Time on Halloween night. Kirby and the Forgotten Land has stood out as a top-selling title in Nintendo’s lineup, reflecting the character’s enduring popularity since his debut in 1992.

With the Switch 2 Edition and the newly introduced Star-Crossed World expansion, HAL Laboratory continues to evolve the franchise while engaging a dedicated global community through in-game content and exclusive rewards experiences. Players can access Kirby and the Forgotten Land Switch 2 Edition and participate in special promotions today on the Nintendo eShop and the My Nintendo rewards platform.
