Fun mini games but still I Dont have friends

This is not a standout Kirby game but it does offer an interesting selection of mini-games related to battle royale activities done in an arena as a competition.

The game can get frustrating in the later chapters as well as repetitive but this is not a huge issue considering the relatively short length of the game.

Honestly it's been so long I kinda forgot what you even do in this game, all I really remember is how bored I was.


very cute game which shows promise for kirby's inevitable jump to 3D but holy fuck what were they thinking making this 40 dollars on release
at most this is a 20 dollar experience

The first dud of this project! I never thought I would rage quit a Kirby game but I got all the way to the end of the Platinum league and straight up would rather die than play Dream Theatre or Apple Scramble again. Also, for a Kirby game that is entirely about combat, it's insane that this has a way narrower moveset than a standard kirby game.

There is potential for a great multiplayer experience, but the main campaign is nothing special, online is only ranked, and the battles range from great variety/depth to shallow at best.

they made a perfectly good reason for why there were multiple kirbys and then they IMMEDIATELY ruined it

It's like a Kirby version of Mario Party. It also has actual dialogue for all the main cast including a spotlight on Bandana Dee so if you like him, this is your game. The minigames are all mostly serviceable except Flagball which should be its own game cause its rad as hell

Clunky controls, many characters with the moveset being way too similar, achievements that practically require online play (and tons of it, far more than the game's lifespan!), modes ranging from okay to terrible, and worst of all, constant framedrops on any model that isn't the New 3DS, sometimes even going into the single digits. On a 30 FPS game!

It's a solid Shogo Sakai soundtrack and the hats are cute, but this has to be the single worst Kirby game ever made. I was gonna not call it bad to continue the Kirby has no bad games meme but nah bro, this is kinda bad.

rinha de bola, infelizmente é enjoativo

Kirby Battle Royal is a rather forgettable game in the series if I'm honest. As someone who really likes some of the spinoff games this feels like an overpriced game that just feels like filler to remind you the 3DS still was having games.

With some very low depth in the copy abilities and some events just not being fun at all, it makes Kirby Battle Royale a hard game to recommend. Even the story mode is a repetitive slog. With it's cheap price on ebay making it a bit easier to consider, I still would just say pass on the game.

Super fun! Good collection of powers! I remember the challenge feeling kinda luck-based at times, though.
