Planet Popstar is being invaded by the Haltmann Works Company and its robotic army, and only Kirby can put a stop to it! Take the fight to the evil corporation using Kirby's trademark Copy Abilities, and turn their own technology against them by taking control of the powerful Robobot Armor! In this platforming adventure, Kirby can explore Planet Popstar in brand new ways, using the Robobot Armor's handy Wrench to move scenery, access new areas and uncover secrets. That’s not all this super strong armor can do either: by scanning enemies, it can transform and use more powerful versions of some of Kirby’s well known Copy Abilities. By analyzing an enemy with the Jet Scan Spec, Kirby’s Robobot Armor will engage Jet Mode, letting it fly across the screen shoot em up style, while the Wheel Scan Spec activates Wheel Mode, turning Kirby’s Robobot Armor into a speedy car that can race between the foreground and background! You can even customise the Robobot Armor using Stickers that are hidden in each stage, or received from other players via StreetPass. Kirby can breathe in opponents and objects alike, then spit them back out to smash away blocks or baddies, and he can also copy the powers of any enemies that he inhales, too! As well as loads of returning Copy Abilities, such as Sword, Beam and Bomb, Kirby can borrow a few new tricks from his enemies, too. Inhaling certain enemies will allow Kirby to unlock the power of his mind with the ESP ability, or throw pills and attack with a clipboard as Doctor Kirby. There are over 25 Copy Abilities to master, each useful in their own way, so give them all a go! For a breather from the main adventure, you can also get stuck into some fun minigames: partner with pals to take on bosses in Team Kirby Clash, or go for a high score in Kirby 3D Rumble! In Team Kirby Clash, Kirby can choose between four classes based off of traditional RPGs, like the Sword Hero, Hammer Lord, Doctor Healmore and the Beam Mage. After each battle, each Kirby will gain experience and has the potential to level up, improving stats that will aid in subsequent battles. During battles, enemies might also drop pieces of magical Power Tablets. Gather together any tablets that pop up and you'll be able to strike hard with a special cooperative Team Meteor attack! In Kirby 3D Rumble, suck up objects or enemies and eliminate all foes in as few moves as possible. By sucking up multiple enemies at once, Kirby can then unleash a powerful Star Bullet that will plough through any enemies in its way. Use this sort of technique to rack up the highest score you can! Stand up to the robotic invasion and save Planet Popstar from the metallic menace in this action packed adventure!
