Kirby rereleases future

HAL Laboratory just came out with Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe, a remake of the Wii game. The studio has now spoken further about this approach in an interview with IGN.

Kirby director Shinya Kumazaki told the site that HAL Laboratory’s goal is always to “provide a new gameplay experience.” Instead of simply remaking games because they can, there has to be something new to it. Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe not only introduces the new Magolor Epilogue, but also Merry Magolor theme park with additional mini-games.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe review

System: Switch
Release Date: February 24, 2023
Developer: HAL Laboratory
Publisher: Nintendo


The original Wii launch of Kirby’s Return to Dream Land has always felt like a particularly important game for the franchise; at the time it released, it had been in development in some form for over a decade, after multiple attempts at creating a new mainline Kirby game never reached fruition. That’s a big part of the reason why Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe, a remaster of the 2011 original, feels like such a fitting way to wrap up the pink puffball’s 30th anniversary celebrations – it’s a testament to just how much the franchise has grown and evolved since then. But how well does this classic Kirby game hold up after all these years, and is the new content added into this remaster strong enough to justify a full-price rerelease?
