What is Kirby and the Forgotten Land + Star-Crossed World?

From our review of Kirby and the Forgotten Land: "Kirby and the Forgotten Land masterfully transitions the series' engaging mix of ability-based combat, platforming, and secret hunting into a 3D environment. While the post-apocalyptic setting may differ from the charm of Planet Popstar, it remains vibrant and beautifully crafted, with levels cleverly designed to utilize Kirby’s unique abilities. Despite the shift to 3D, the game retains the essence of what makes classic Kirby games so beloved. If the future holds more 3D adventures for our pink hero, I'm all in."

The Nintendo Switch 2 version not only includes the original game with upgraded visuals but also adds the Star-Crossed World expansion. According to Nintendo, in this new content, "Kirby must harness his incredible abilities, including new Mouthful Modes, to navigate through uncharted territories following a meteor strike."
