Nintendo announced that Kirby and the World Beyond for Nintendo Switch 2 will launch in Spring 2027!
As a brand-new main entry in the Kirby franchise, Nintendo unveiled a debut trailer showcasing vast 3D fields and powered-up Copy Abilities.
Kirby and the World Beyond Launches Spring 2027! Debut Trailer Released
During Nintendo Direct 9.9.2026, Nintendo premiered a reveal trailer for Kirby and the World Beyond.
Set across expansive 3D environments featuring lush grasslands and towering waterfalls, the video captures Kirby adventuring freely while wielding Copy Abilities and an array of new actions.
Powered-Up Copy Abilities! Explore 3D Environments Freely
Venture freely across sprawling landscapes while vanquishing foes along the way.
Furthermore, this title significantly enhances Copy Abilities, enabling actions such as rapid traversal, jumping, and gliding.
Whether surfing atop Cutter blades at high speed, planting Sword into tree trunks to climb, or blast-jumping high into the air with Bomb explosions, the scope of exploration has expanded tremendously.
A Mysterious Girl and an Enigmatic Wall
A mysterious girl held captive by King Dedede also appears.
Whether her identity is linked to the newfound powers Kirby has acquired is a captivating question.

Furthermore, as King Dedede is sent flying, a massive rupture opens in the sky.
Kirby shatters a colossal wall using his newly awakened power.
What could possibly be waiting beyond the wall?
