NS2 Kirby Air Riders

Ready, set, fight!

Charge up, speed up, and spin into action against your opponents in Kirby Air Riders! This fast-paced vehicle action game for Nintendo Switch 2 features Kirby and his entire crew.

Riders, get ready!

Choose your rider, select your vehicle, and get ready to race! Compete against other opponents in wild arena battles or fast-paced races on land and in the air. Use the Boost Charge button to brake and handle turns better while trying to reach maximum speed. Fill up the Boost Charge gauge by drifting through turns and then release it for an explosive acceleration!

A wide range of riders will be available: Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede, and Magolor from Kirby’s Adventure Wii. You can choose from machines like the Warp Star, Wheelie Bike, Chariot, and many others. Each vehicle handles differently, and each rider has their own stats and special abilities – they can also take on the Copy Abilities of their enemies, giving them an edge in battle.

Engage in diverse arena battles in City Trial mode

Ride through the city of Skyah in City Trial mode. This battle is designed for up to 16 players, both online and locally. Explore Skyah to find better vehicles, collect power-ups, and survive unpredictable terrain events, from falling meteors to battles with powerful bosses.

After five minutes from the start, you and your opponents will compete in one of a variety of different stadium competitions, each with its own goal. These include drag races, battle arenas, skydiving, and more, so it's good to be prepared for anything!

Race to the finish line in Air Ride

If you prefer straightforward racing, try Air Ride – a frantic sprint where you face off against five other riders online or locally. Attack opponents or stay close behind them to collect stars. Alternatively, use the boosts they provide to defeat enemies and secure first place right at the finish line!
