Kirby and the World Beyond will launch for Nintendo Switch 2 in spring 2027. Nintendo is positioning it as a new 3D adventure for the series, with Kirby freely exploring an expansive world and uncovering what waits beyond its horizon.
The central hook remains Kirby’s Copy Abilities, now framed as tools to use creatively while moving through the new world. The announcement trailer focuses on that sense of discovery, showing a broader adventure built around movement, exploration, and the series’ familiar ability-based play.
The timing also matters for Kirby as a franchise, since 2027 marks the series’ 35th anniversary. Players tracking the release window can follow Kirby and the World Beyond through the Playority Calendar, where upcoming games can be saved to a personal account for customized notifications, release updates, and platform tracking.
