Anyone looking to 100 percent complete Kirby Air Riders is in for a challenge, because it’s got huge checklists for Air Ride, Top Ride, City Trial, Road Trip, and Online. You’ll need to complete them all in order to earn true 100 percent completion (plus a few other things), and thankfully many of the challenges you’ll need to clear are fairly self-explanatory. That being said, City Trial’s checklist is much more dependent on random luck and field events, meaning it’s probably going to be the one you finish last. Several of the tasks within require that you assemble Legendary Machines, of which there are four. Two of them are Dragoon and Hydra, while the other two are related to the story and are considered spoilers. We’ll be discussing them within, so keep that in mind before you continue.

The best custom Kirby Air Riders machines we’ve seen so far

Posted on 1 week ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments

Kirby Air Riders is out now on Nintendo Switch 2, and it’s got the best vehicle customization out of any racing game Nintendo has ever published. One of the game’s key features is that you can connect to the Machine Market and use your in-game currency to buy custom designs for each machine. Unfortunately, all of the popular ones are really expensive – the more people buy them, the more expensive they become. So we scoured the new section for awesome-looking Air Ride machines that aren’t anywhere near as expensive as the more popular ones just yet. That also means we aren’t including any of those crazy Chef Kawasaki designs here. Sorry!

Kirby Air Riders review for Nintendo Switch 2

Posted on 1 week ago by Nicholas Serpa in Reviews, Switch 2 | 0 comments

System: Switch 2
Release date: November 20, 2025
Developer: Bandai Namco / Sora
Publisher: Nintendo

Kirby is a versatile little fellow – outside of his core 2D (and as of late, 3D) platforming adventures, Nintendo’s most rotund character has starred in a battle royale, puzzle games, fighters, and more. His big 2003 debut into the racing genre, Kirby Air Ride, now receives a sequel over twenty years later that feels more like an expanded remake at times, revisiting the original concept but expanding and improving upon it at seemingly every turn. It’s also wholly unlike most other racing games, and its diversity of game modes, breakneck pace and Super Smash Bros-esque flair make it feel more like a party game at times. While not all the pieces of Kirby Air Riders are equally compelling, and I’m not sure the game will have the staying power for me personally that I had hoped, I was certainly never bored while playing—and often, the adrenaline from the game’s more intense moments had me on the edge of my seat.
