During the first round of the Kirby 25th Anniversary Copy Ability Poll, “Mirror” was chosen by fans. That meant the ability would be added to Kirby Battle Royale at some point.
Nintendo has now announced that Mirror will be available in Kirby Battle Royale on December 13. Of course, the game isn’t actually out yet in North America – only in Europe and Japan. When it becomes available stateside in January, we assume the Copy Ability will be out at launch.
