Last year Nintendo surprised when it announced that Kirby’s Return to Dream Land would return thanks to a remaster for Nintendo Switch. This edition will not only have performance improvements, but also additions to the Wii title and it has just been revealed that one of them is the possibility of competing against 99 players in a classic minigame of the series.
If you are one of the Kirby fans who did not miss the opportunity to play Kirby’s Return to Dream Land on Wii, you may still not decide whether to buy Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe. So, this is for you, since it has already been revealed that it will have some additions that you probably do not want to miss.

Kirby will learn 2 new abilities in Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe
First, you should know that this game will not be the same in terms of skills or copies that Kirby can get, but HAL Laboratory added 3 skills to make a total of 26 skills available. The first of these is the Festival ability, which originally debuted in Kirby Star Allies.
The ones that attract the most attention are the Sand and Mecha abilities, since not only had they not appeared in the original Wii game, but they had not debuted in the 35 years of the franchise either.
The first, as the name suggests, will allow Kirbys to create sandstorms and use fists made of sand to attack enemies from a distance. Also, those Kirbys with this ability will be able to hide in the sand.
On the other hand, the Mecha ability will give Kirbys a robot armor that can shoot lightning bolts and attack enemies from a distance or use the reinforced fists to respond at close range. Additionally, this suit will also allow Kirbys to navigate through the air.

Kirby Samurai will have a kind of Battle Royale
What some will also appreciate is that this game will have mini-games that can be enjoyed as an additional mode and among them is the Samurai one, which basically rewards the player with the best reflexes. This minigame (recurring in the Kirby series) in local mode will pit up to 4 players against each other, who will have to press a button as soon as the indicated symbol appears.
Well, it has just been announced that this minigame for the first time in the franchise will have online multiplayer support. It will be called Samurai Kirby 100 and it will allow the player to face the brands of 99 other players in the same game, so in that sense it is a kind of Battle Royale.
In case you missed it: Kirby’s memorable anime will return in HD, but its price is very high.

Participating in this minigame would be difficult if we take into account the lag and that its fun is to discover which player has the best reflexes, so the way Nintendo enabled online play is through time tables. Thus, the player will not face his opponents in real time, but rather compete with his record.
“Draw your sword and prepare for a Kirby Samurai duel of epic proportions! This new addition to Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe allows you to take on 99 online opponents from around the world to try and beat their records,” reads the statement. description of the minigame
You must take into account that in order to see and challenge the records left by other users in this minigame, an active Nintendo Switch Online membership will be necessary.
