Nintendo just announced a brand new game dubbed Kirby Fighters 2 in the popular Kirby series for the Nintendo Switch, and you can download it for just $19.99 from the eShop.
The game involves going toe-to-toe with up to three other players in either local or online multiplayer. You can choose from 17 different Kirbys, each equipped with one of Kirby’s famous copy abilities, in addition to a new Wrestler ability, as well as other characters such as King Dedede, Meta Knight, and Bandana Waddle Dee.

The game also offers a story mode where players can work their way through a myriad of battles to eventually lock horns with Meta Knight and King Dedede, and this can be played co-op with a friend. The game’s Single-Handed Mode requires you to single-handedly clear nine battles against increasingly difficult opponents as quickly as you can.
A lot of avid gamers still have no idea that there is a Kirby Fighters game before this, but Kirby Fighters 2 is the successor to Kirby Fighters Deluxe, which was launched in 2014 for the Nintendo 3DS. Kirby Fighters Deluxe was a standalone game, taken from a multiplayer mode in Kirby Triple Deluxe, also for the Nintendo 3DS.
