I never knew I wanted a 3D Kirby game this bad. So happy to have a new 3D platformer to look forward to!
In this new unforgettable 3D platforming adventure, Kirby explores a mysterious world full of abandoned structures from a past civilization. What surprises await the pink puffball? #Kirby and the Forgotten Land releases Spring 2022!

I just 100% completed #MonsterBoy then saw that it's currently on sale at a big discount. This is one of the best Metroid-type games I've played in a long time and I'll probably talk about it on the next #NintendoPower Podcast. I highly recommend it! nintendo.com/games/detail/mo…
