Next week, players will see the beloved Kirby's Return to Dream Land get a remaster, as well as receive a deluxe version with extra features for dedicated fans of the game, 12 years after its initial release.

In the game, Kirby must find five missing pieces and 120 energy spheres scattered across the planet to give back to Magolor, an alien from a distant world, so that he can fix his ship and get back to his home. Kirby must defeat many enemies and bosses in order to retrieve all of the pieces, earning himself and his friends a trip to Magolor's home with him.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land received many positive reviews when it first launched, so the announcement of a remastered version for the Nintendo Switch is cause of celebration amongst Kirby fans.
