Characters we could still see in Kirby Air Riders
Posted on 6 days ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
A few months back, we compiled a list of characters we’d like to see added to Kirby Air Riders. And fortunately, several of our picks actually came true – Marx, Taranza, Rocky, and Daroach were all revealed in the recent presentation held for the game. The same video also revealed that Kirby Air Riders won’t receive any DLC – a refreshing chance of pace to receive a complete game from day one, for sure, but it also means that the base game’s character roster will be final.
At the time of writing, we aren’t sure if Masahiro Sakurai has revealed every single character in Kirby Air Riders. During the game’s Direct, it was never clarified if everything during the presentation rounded out the roster Historically – and with the exception of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate – Sakurai tends to leave a couple of characters hidden for players to unlock. So today, we’re looking at a few remaining contenders that we could see in the game.
