Three New Mouthful Modes In Kirby and the Forgotten Land

The three new mouthful modes coming to Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star Crossed World DLC are – Spring Mouth, Gear Mouth, and Sign Mouth.

With Spring Mouth, you’ll be able to reach high platforms with High Jump and smash down on enemies and break through the ground and objects.

Gear Mouth allows you to latch onto walls vertically to help you navigate through certain platforms.

Sign Mouth is for sliding along slopes, jump to reach things in the air and spin to attack enemies using this ability.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star Crossed World Overview

Here is an overview of the new Kirby update:

• A New Story, Star-Crossed World: A massive meteor has crashed into the Forgotten Land and an impending evil is about to be unleashed. To seal it away, Kirby must venture forth and gather Starries, fragments of stars scattered across the land, while exploring new locations and facing a variety of new challenges. Complete Natural Plains, the first area of the original story, to access the new Star-Crossed World story content and its Starry Stages.

• Brand-New Starry Stages: The meteor’s impact has changed aspects of the Forgotten Land, and once familiar locations have been transformed. Discover new paths and explore areas that were previously inaccessible – like the tops of buildings and even the ocean floor. Rescue the Starries in each stage to progress to the next one. But watch out: The meteor’s effects have made the Beast Pack more powerful, and some newly added foes will try to slow you down, too!

• New Activities: Collect Starry Coins in each stage and spend them to acquire new figures from Astronomer Waddle Dee. You can also head to the Colosseum and test your mettle in an extra-tough boss rush, The Ultimate Cup Z EX.

• Nintendo Switch 2 Enhancements: Enjoy high quality graphics and faster frame rates across both the original game and the Star-Crossed World expansion with the enhanced capabilities of Nintendo Switch 2.

Kirby and the Forgotten Land Switch 2 Edition + Star Crossed World releases August 28, 2025, and those who own the game already can purchase the $20 upgrade pack on the eShop.
