Kirby Air Riders is nearly here on Nintendo Switch 2! I played the demo this weekend and wanted to give you my honest first impressions — is Kirby Air Riders actually good… or is this one a skip?
The races are surprisingly deep and stylish, Sakurai’s fingerprints are all over this thing, and the presentation is fantastic — but City Trial feels messy, chaotic, random and honestly more frustrating than fun.
Let’s talk about what actually works, what doesn’t, and if this is a full-price buy or a “wait and see” on Switch 2.
