Yes, you're seeing correctly - this is an $80 game. There's no denying it's a premium price for an upgraded Switch title with expansion content, but that's Nintendo's pricing, so act fast if you want it.

Standalone Upgrade Option Available

For those who already own the original Switch version, here's some welcome news. Since this package simply bundles the base game with a Switch 2 upgrade, existing owners can purchase just the enhancement pack separately for reduced cost.

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

From our original Kirby and the Forgotten Land review: "This exceptional Kirby adventure masterfully translates the series' signature blend of ability-based combat, platforming, and exploration into 3D. While its post-apocalyptic setting lacks the charm of Planet Popstar, the vibrant environments showcase brilliantly designed levels that maximize Kirby's capabilities. Despite the dimensional shift, it retains everything great about classic Kirby games - and if this represents the future of our pink protagonist's adventures, I'll gladly devour more."

This Switch 2 Edition delivers the complete original experience with visual enhancements, plus the brand-new Star-Crossed World expansion. Nintendo describes the fresh content: "When a powerful meteor strikes, Kirby must deploy his abilities - including never-before-seen Mouthful Modes - to blaze through unexplored lands."
