Most of Nintendo’s major franchises, from Mario to Zelda, made the big 3D leap 20 years ago or more, but one franchise has stuck stubbornly to the 2D plane – Kirby. Rumors of a true 3D Kirby game have come and gone for years, but never materialized.
Well, it was leaked earlier in the day, and then confirmed during the latest Nintendo Direct – everybody’s favorite pink marshmallow is making his 3D debut in Kirby and the Forgotten Land. It isn’t just the third dimension that sets Forgotten Land apart through, as the game trades in the candy-colored vistas of past Kirby games in favor of an abandoned, overgrown, semi-realistic world. Yes, believe it or not, Kirby is going post-apocalyptic. You can check out the debut trailer for Kirby and the Forgotten Land, below.
Welp, can’t say I saw this one coming! Need to know more about Kirby and the Forgotten Land? Here’s the game’s official description:
