The developer of Kirby Air Riders is now confirmed, with director Masahiro Sakurai sharing the news that Bandai Namco is working on the project.

Sakurai shared that tidbit on social media. He said that the “staff is giving their all in developing the game, but it will take some time before we can share more information.” Fans were also reminded that Bandai Namco worked on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and Smash Bros. for Wii U / 3DS.

Today, Kirby Air Riders was unveiled for Nintendo Switch. Nintendo will be publishing the title later in 2025.

Kirby Air Riders brings back the classic GameCube game directed by Masahiro Sakurai, the creator of Smash Bros. Once again, Sakurai will be directing here.

Only a brief trailer was shown today with Kirby on his Warp Star machine and other Kirby air riders on a variety of unique machines, as they joined together on a racetrack.
