Mainly for core Kirby fans, you should already be familiar with Kirby Fighters. But as for more casual fans, the game is a subgame derived from 2014’s Kirby: Triple Deluxe which shipped uniquely to the Nintendo 3DS. While the title is only a side experience of a full game, the project later received an updated version later that same year dubbed ‘Kirby Fighters Deluxe’.
Howbeit, since the Deluxe version shipped there has yet to be a successor to fill the shoes of the original. Yes, there is the free-to-play Super Kirby Clash which hit the Nintendo eShop last year for Nintendo Switch, but not a direct sequel that might appease to the beloved fans of the franchise. But now, it looks that the wait is soon to cease thanks to Nintendo dropping the ball.
In that, Twitter user @OnTheDownLoTho shared to be surfing through the Play Nintendo website where a listing for Kirby Fighters 2 was found.
From what can be collected from the listing’s description, most of the traits already associated with Kirby Fighters is expected to be found in the follow-up. Except for the “new Wrestler ability” which is briefly shared to be a new attribute that can be used in the unannounced entry. Characters such as Bandana Waddle and King Dedede are also mentioned to be featured in Kirby Fighters 2.
The only tangible evidence for the listing is the remaining image posted by the Twitter user. After sharing the discovery, it was not long until the Play Nintendo website went down and the listing was no longer featured on the domain. But from what can be collected, perhaps this references a soon reveal for the game.
