Kirby Battle Royale up for pre-load in North America, free 3DS theme included

Kirby Battle Royale launched in both Europe and Japan in November. As for North America, Nintendo is finally releasing the game next Friday, and you can now pre-load it on the 3DS eShop.

You’ll need 1,688 blocks of space (211MB) for the digital version of Kirby Battle Royale. The process will let you purchase the game in advance and download most of the required data. Then on launch day, you’ll only need a small update to begin playing.

The pre-load also comes with a bonus. Nintendo is handing out codes for a “Kirby Battle Royale: May the Best Kirby Win!” 3DS theme.
