Kirby's design director hopes to derive non-actions

Riki Furmann of Hal Laboratory believes that the future of Nintendo's Kirby franchise will be different.

When communicating with Famitsu (via Nintendo Everything), the design director and other Kirby developers, chief action programmer Katsuyoshi Sumitomo, and general manager Shinya Kumazaki attended the meeting to discuss the future plans of the series.

Sumitomo said that although a large part of it is essentially marketing waffles-"I really hope that the next piece we created is called the pinnacle of Kirby games." "I'm pretty sure that the Kirby series can become more Interesting! "-Fu Man's comment is really interesting.

He said: "Personally, I really want to make a non-action Kirby-derived game." "… We will launch a variety of Kirby in the future."

Super Kirby Clash is the latest Kirby game in the franchise and was released on Nintendo Switch eShop last year. Like in previous franchises, Super Kirby Clash features classic Kirby games and introduces action-centric multiplayer boss battles.
