Kirby™ Star Allies

Classic Kirby enemies are his new best friends!

When an evil threatens Planet Popstar, Kirby will need a little help from his...enemies?! By making friends out of foes, up to three** players can drop in or out of the adventure at any time. With expanded copy abilities, classic Kirby action is even deeper: combine abilities with elements such as ice or fire to create friend abilities!

Inhale, inherit, repeat

Kirby can inhale enemies to gain access to their powers. Here’s a look at some of the Copy Abilities he can get!

  • Spider

  • Artist

    Unleash the power of paint on your foes.

  • Cleaning

    Sweep your problems away with a broom!

  • Staff

Characters

  • Kirby

    A young traveller who blew in on a spring breeze.
    He may be easy-going and gluttonous,
    but he'll be the first to help if someone's in trouble or the planet is in danger.
    An unexpected hero.

  • The Three
    Mage-Sisters

    The Fortress of Shadows, "Jambastion," appeared out of nowhere.
    It was these three ladies who took command of it.
    Their past is shrouded in mystery,
    but it's said that they came to Planet Popstar under someone's orders.

  • Meta
    Knight

    A lone swordsman who trains diligently every day, striving to become stronger.
    After being affected by a Jamba Heart,
    his previous sinister designs are revived
    and he instigates deadly fights with Kirby.

  • King
    Dedede

    This self-proclaimed king runs a castle on Mt. Dedede.
    He's stood in Kirby's way countless times before, and challenged him to many battles.
    A Jamba Heart causes him to beef up and go on a rampage.
    His huge hammer-like arms are even strong enough to destroy a castle.
