Mere hours after Nintendo's Kirby Air Riders direct, I was holding a Switch 2 Pro Controller and playing the game at a special preview event in New York City.
I watched back Mr. Sakurai's presentation while I rode the train into Manhattan, so I had an idea of what to expect after not playing the original title over 20 years ago. After actually playing this new game, though, I can say it's probably deeper than you may think, while also easy being accessible enough for any level of gamer to pick up and play quick matches.
