Kirby and the Forgotten Land's Star-Crossed World add-on throws a handful of fun new levels into the mix, but isn't the kind of substantial upgrade that will irresistibly suck you in like one of Kirby’s mouthfuls.

I can see Nintendo making these lush revivals a common occurrence on its new platform, and after Forgotten Land, that would be no bad thing.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land was already a stellar Switch game, and Star-Crossed World adds more of the same.

Kirby And The Forgotten Land - Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star-Crossed World gives you the base Forgotten Land experience at a delicious 60fps with a whole big bunch of new content thrown in for good measure. The 12 remixed areas that make up the DLC are uniformly delightful, the new transformations are excellent, and there's even new challenges for hardcore Kirby fans to get stuck into.One of the best games on Switch, and one of my favourite 3D platformers in years, polished to a sparkly sheen and packing some meaningful new content? That's a very easy recommendation and a truly excellent addition to the Switch 2's early lineup.

Combined with the DLC, the full game is an incredible package that I'd give a 9/10 any day of the week, but when purely analyzing what the DLC adds, it's not anywhere near a third of the content of the base game, even if that's the amount you're paying.

Nintendo and Hal Laboratory have once again pulled off an adventure that not only improves upon the original adventure but the added content offers enough to consider it essential. If you enjoyed the base game, the additional content will delight you and won't disappoint you at all. A perfect example of how to offer a new version of the game for one of the most beloved characters that exist.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + The Astral World is the definitive version of one of the most creative platformers of recent years. New levels, much-needed technical improvements, and more additions bolster an already well-rounded game. No matter how much you gulp, Kirby never gets sick.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land Switch 2 Edition + Star Crossed World is the definitive version of one of the Switch's best games and this game in any form is practically an essential purchase. The new content is well worth the upgrade price too, but if you sold your copy of the Switch version then the full price to return is pretty steep.
