This week’s edition of Japanese publication Famitsu has shed some light on some new Kirby: Planet Robobot details including the various robot modes, and information on King Dedede and Meta Knight.
Here’s some details on Kirby’s robot modes:
- Stone Mode: This mode allows Kirby to punch with giant hands, allowing the player to defend from attacks and also punch the ground for a wide-range attack.
- Esper/ESP Mode: Gives Kirby the ability to throw electric balls and attack with Psycho Thunders from the Robobot’s hands.
- Mic-mode: Attacks with “ear-splitting” sounds from four big speakers.
The article also mentions an additional ability from Robobot, which involves inserting Robobot’s arm into a keyhole to rotate the platform you are on.
Finally, Famitsu mentions the roles that King Dedede and Meta Knight play. King Dedede appears to be a clone from the original, created using his cells, whereas Meta Knight seems to be controlled by the enemy using a device connected to his mask. Kirby will fight both of these characters in the game.
Hah…Stone Mode.
when is this game coming out?
