Kirby vs. Kirby vs. Kirby vs. Kirby

Choose from a cast of Kirby’s most iconic copy abilities—including the brand-new Wrestler ability—and duke it out to be the last Kirby standing. Familiar friends and foes like Bandana Waddle Dee and King Dedede also make an appearance as playable characters.

Prove your pink puffball prowess and scale the tower in Story Mode

Meta Knight and King Dedede have seemingly teamed up to challenge Kirby to a buddy gauntlet! Fight alongside a buddy (player or computer controlled) to scale the tower, choosing helpful items between each round that will power you up for the rest of your ascent.

Friends can join the fray locally or online

Up to four players can battle on the same system*, with local wireless, or online**! Choose a free-for-all or team battle and customize the rules to your liking.

Each of the playable abilities and characters has a distinct play style and set of moves. Abilities like Cutter and Archer excel at ranged attacks, while Wrestler and Fighter like to get up close and personal! Other characters like Gooey and Bandana Waddle Dee bring a variety of moves from past Kirby games. Experiment with them all to find and master your favorite.

Earn Fighters Points as you play to level up your Fighters Rank to unlock abilities, characters, stages, and more. You’ll even unlock Rare Hats that change the look of certain copy abilities—Cutter Kirby rocking a mohawk is a sight to see.

When you aren’t battling with friends or scaling the tower in Story Mode, Single-Handed mode is a one-player time trial of 9 back-to-back battles! It’s great for practicing your skills or gaining some Fighters Points.

Players with save data for the Kirby Star Allies game can get Rare Hats of the Three Mage Sisters, and players with save data for the Super Kirby Clash game can get a Rare Hat for Sword Kirby.

Gameplay

The base game is similar to its predecessor; however, 5 new Copy Abilities (including Wrestler, an ability original to this game) appear in addition to the 12 from the previous game, and five new playable characters have been added as well. The game also includes local wireless and online multiplayer modes, as well as a new roguelite Story Mode.

Demo

A demo for Kirby Fighters 2 was released for download on the Nintendo eShop on October 21, 2020, after the game's release. The demo version limits the Story Mode to Chapter 1, and only offers three abilities and an additional fighter: Sword, Bomb, Staff and Bandana Waddle Dee. Online and local play are restricted: the demo version cannot be used to create lobbies, but a player can connect to an existing lobby from the full version.
