Check out the new video featuring Mr. Sakurai playing through the new Airtopia Ruins Air Ride course! We decided not to select our CPU rivals randomly for this one. #KirbyAirRiders

Swap between rails and aim for first place in the Rail Panic Stadium. Copy Abilities, items, and even Gordos can all present some unexpected obstacles here. Which machines do you think will give you an edge for this one? #KirbyAirRiders

Pick your rider and head off on a journey in Road Trip! As you clear tasks to make progress, you might come across some mysterious encounters. What will you find at the end of the road? #KirbyAirRiders

During the #KirbyAirRiders Global Test Ride, you can learn the basics in Lessons, race to the finish line in Air Ride, and power up your machine for battle in City Trial. Lessons will become available starting November 7, so you'll have some time to gear up for the main event!

The first round of the #KirbyAirRiders Global Test Ride is coming soon! Download the free demo and catch some vehicle action during these times.

Inhale or capture a Jabjab to use the Fighter Copy Ability and kick at any rivals who get too close! You can also Boost Charge to shoot out some jabs, and if you charge up all the way you'll let loose with a Power Shot! #KirbyAirRiders

The Fantasy Meadows Air Ride course features a windmill peacefully turning on a small hill surrounded by tranquil fields. Don't relax too much, or you might forget to Boost Charge! #KirbyAirRiders

If you play Swap Relay in Air Ride, you'll switch out your machine with each new lap. It's a great way to try out all kinds of combinations quickly. #KirbyAirRiders

There's a Field Event in Skyah where Grand Wheelie makes a sudden appearance! Word of warning: don't attack head-on. Approach from the sides or the back. #KirbyAirRiders

If you manage to get an Item Catcher during City Trial, you can use it like a magnet to pull other items to you from a distance. It's handy for snagging power-ups! #KirbyAirRiders

Ride through floating ruins in the Air Top Ride course! Hop off cloud trampolines, and try not to get caught in the tornado. #KirbyAirRiders

The Sleep Copy Ability can lull unwary Riders off to sleep even during a hectic race or battle. If you stray too close to a sleeping rival and end up catching a few Zs yourself, you can always wiggle the Left Control Stick to wake yourself up faster! #KirbyAirRiders

The Button Rush Stadium is all about territorial control. Push as many of the buttons scattered around the area as you can—some of them are up in the air, and some of them are gigantic! #KirbyAirRiders

@sora-sakurai.bsky.social： 「フリーズ能力の特徴 : だれでもかわいくなる」

Taranza's special, Spider Shots, shoots out webbing that can slow your rivals down. #KirbyAirRiders

Use short Boost Charges as Taranza to shoot out strings of webbing that you can use to pull yourself forward for extra speed! #KirbyAirRiders

With the Freeze Copy Ability, you'll lose less speed during a Boost Charge and surround yourself with an icy wind when you unleash it. Slip and slide ahead while freezing your rivals! #KirbyAirRiders

@sora-sakurai.bsky.social： 「前からも後ろからも開く宝箱､RPGなどをプレイしていてこうすればいいのになあと思っていたことがあり… なぜか『エアライダー』で実装しました｡」

@sora-sakurai.bsky.social： 「オーバル面白いです。 普通のゲームのオーバルコースと異なるのは、半周ごとにジャンプ台があること。 飛行マシンは飛んだ方がいいけど、絶妙なサイズで逃すことも。 飛んだら次のジャンプ台を使うか、飛び越えてまだ進むかを判断したり… コピーパネルもあります。」

One Field Event will cause a locked treasure chest to appear somewhere. Find the key and unlock the chest to get some power-ups! (It might be hard to notice during the action, but these treasure chests actually open in both directions. Interesting craftsmanship!) #KirbyAirRiders

In Top Ride, you can use the Chickie item to send little chickies at your rivals! Once chickie-fied, they'll have their controls reversed. #KirbyAirRiders

Slip through rising tides, leap down into the ocean, take a huge jump across a water pillar—the Flow Top Ride course is almost like a water park! #KirbyAirRiders

The Paddock is an online lobby that can hold up to 32 players at once. Join or host a Paddock and you can hang out and play any mode you choose with the other players there. #KirbyAirRiders

With the Needle Copy Ability, you'll automatically shoot out some needles if a rival gets too close. You can also Boost Charge to strike out in a bigger range. Be careful approaching a rival with this Copy Ability! #KirbyAirRiders

Aim for first place as you zip around a series of laps in the Oval Circuit Stadium! Making good use of the jump ramps and Copy Ability panels is sure to be key to success. #KirbyAirRiders

@sora-sakurai.bsky.social： 「ライダーにするには､ボス敵などよりザコ敵の方が向いているんですよね｡ 特にカービィの敵はコピー能力や一芸を体現しているので｡ もっとも重い､もっとも飛べる､もっとも格闘向き､怒ると変身､帽子が取れるとか､特化しやすい｡ 見た目がシンプルなのもよいですね｡」

Despite being quite small, Rocky actually boasts an unmatched Weight among all other Riders! That means it'll be tough to push you around if you choose this rugged Rider. #KirbyAirRiders

Here's today's #KirbyAirRiders photo!

Before you can play online, you'll need to set up your License. Choose a Street Name for yourself and decorate your License as you like—it's what other players will see when you play with them! #KirbyAirRiders

Grow to a monstrously powerful size in the Big Battle Stadium! The Size Up item allows for some truly epic battles. #KirbyAirRiders

Rare boxes containing power-ups are appearing en masse all over Skyah. Be careful as you're breaking them open, though—some of them are fake! #KirbyAirRiders

The Formula Star is unmatched in its Top Speed. Race like the wind, and don't let anything stand in your way! #KirbyAirRiders

In #KirbyAirRiders, you can use the Nintendo GameCube controller as well as any Nintendo Switch Joy-Con controllers or Pro Controllers you have. You can also play split-screen on a single Nintendo Switch 2 system.

Ride through shining crystals, and then dive down into an area full of magma, in the Crystalline Fissure Air Ride course! There's also a dragon that shoots out crystals. #KirbyAirRiders

Launch yourself off a ramp in the High Jump Stadium! Whoever flies the highest wins. Oh, and the scenery changes based on how high you reach! #KirbyAirRiders

Get a speed boost to pass your rivals with Golden Waddle Dee! This powered-up Waddle Dee can take all kinds of hits without budging in the slightest. #KirbyAirRiders

Just a regular Waddle Dee making a regular entrance! Waddle Dee is lightweight and cruises around speedily. #KirbyAirRiders

Mr. Sakurai has been sharing a series of daily photos from the #KirbyAirRiders development team. Starting today, we'll be posting those for you too!

City Trial, Air Ride, and Top Ride are all playable online or via local wireless. We hope you enjoy playing each of these modes with friends and family or with players from around the world. #KirbyAirRiders

The Flower Top Ride course is similar to Floria Fields. Coast on the windmill's winds and zoom around on the rotating floors! #KirbyAirRiders
