Priced at $80, this game might seem expensive for an upgraded version of the original Switch title plus an expansion. However, it's the price set by Nintendo, so if you're eager to get your hands on it, go ahead and make the purchase.

Upgrade Pack Is Also Available Separately

For those who already own the original version of Kirby and the Forgotten Land, there's a cost-effective option. Since the Nintendo Switch 2 Edition includes the original game and the Switch 2 Edition upgrade pack, existing owners can buy just the upgrade pack separately, saving some money in the process.

What is Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star-Crossed World?

From our Kirby and the Forgotten Land review: "Kirby and the Forgotten Land successfully warps the series' already fun mix of ability-based combat, platforming, and secret hunting into the third dimension. The post-apocalyptic setting may not be as thematically interesting as Planet Popstar, but it is still lovely and vibrant, with cleverly designed levels that make consistently smart use of Kirby's abilities. Despite the change in perspective, Forgotten Land maintains most of what I love about classic Kirby games – and if the future means more 3D adventures for our hungry pink hero, I’d be more than happy to swallow them up."

This Nintendo Switch 2 version not only delivers the full original game with enhanced graphics but also includes the Star-Crossed World expansion. Nintendo describes this new content as follows: "Kirby must use his amazing abilities, including some all-new Mouthful Modes, to clear a trail through uncharted territory after the world is struck by a powerful meteor."
