Nintendo Treehouse talks Kirby Star Allies’ upcoming patch

Next week, Kirby Star Allies is receiving a new patch that will add in new Dream Friends. Each one will have unique move sets based on the games they appeared in.

The Nintendo Treehouse Log is now starting to focus on the update by giving insight into the different characters. Here’s an excerpt from a new post share yesterday:

Rick the hamster can now perform attacks based on copy abilities as they appeared in Kirby’s Dream Land 2. The most basic move is his “Continuous Fire Attack,” now known as Fire Rick, which allows him to burn enemies or obstacles. He can share his fire with friends to create fiery Friend Abilities, and protect himself with a front-facing attack.

Next, Rick’s dash attack takes the form of his Stone attack, aka Stone Rick, which allows him to roll over enemies, become temporarily invulnerable, and utilize any Friend abilities that Stone can use.
