LET’S take a look at the top five upcoming games this month.

KIRBY STAR ALLIES

WHEN it comes to Nintendo consoles, you just can’t have one without a proper Kirby game and that’s what we’re going to have.

Kirby Star Allies is a platformer featuring one of Nintendo’s most beloved mascots of all time, Kirby.

While not much is known about the

game, Kirby Star Allies can be played with up to four players, with Kirby capable of throwing hearts at enemies to convert them into his allies.

With companion characters on screen, Kirby will have access to new special attacks which involves it combining its abilities with said allies. There is also the new “Friend Abilities” feature, which are stage-specific abilities and allow you to interact with the environmen­t in a unique way.

FUN FACT: Kirby Star Allies was first teased back in Electronic Entertainm­ent Expo 2017 (E3 2017) which took place in Los Angeles, California. The game only had the name “Kirby” on it until it was announced during the Nintendo Direct presentati­on later in the year as Kirby of the Stars: Star Allies in Japan and Kirby Star Allies in English regions.

Kirby Star Allies will be available exclusivel­y for the Nintendo Switch this Friday.
