Kirby Star-Crossed World Review - Forgotten Land Gets Bigger, Only Slightly Better
"Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star Crossed World occupies a strange space in the spate of Switch 2 upgrades. Its upgrades to the original game are relatively modest, offering small performance improvements to a game that already ran well in the first place. But its new content is among the most expansive, consisting of a new mini-campaign that threads itself through original stages and culminates in even tougher challenges than in the main game."
"When you start up your existing save in Star-Crossed World, you'll be greeted by a new island centered on an ominous dark heart, the Fallen Star Volcano. Helpless Starry creatures have been scattered throughout the world, and at the same time, star crystals have fallen that transformed stages and enemies, so being the helpful demigod that he is, Kirby volunteers to rescue the Starries."
Star-Crossed World delivers modest Switch 2 performance improvements alongside a substantial new mini-campaign that weaves through original levels. A new island centered on the Fallen Star Volcano introduces scattered Starry creatures and fallen star crystals that transform stages and enemies. Crystalized variants of stages coexist with originals and can be selected separately, with about two crystal stages per world, making the campaign roughly one-third the size of the original. Crystal touchpoints unlock new crystalline paths and areas within familiar levels. The crystal effect slightly enhances visuals but creates a consistent visual motif across stages.
