Kirby Air Riders Amiibo Figure Sets Cost Up For Preorder Now
Nintendo is releasing two unique Amiibo figure sets alongside Kirby Air Riders. Unveiled during the September Nintendo Direct alongside a several other new Amiibo, Kirby & Warp Star and Waddle Dee & Winged Star Amiibo figures are up for preorder for $50 each. That's an unusually high price point, but technically these are bundles with two figures, as Kirby and Waddle Dee each come with their own machine from the game, too. Kirby Air Riders launches November 20 exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2.
The sequel to the 2003 GameCube hit has already had an in-depth Nintendo Direct showcase of its own, but Nintendo announced a second Kirby Air Riders stream will air prior to the racing game's launch. Kirby Air Riders preorders are available for $70 at Amazon, Walmart, and other major retailers.
Kirby Air Riders for Nintendo Switch 2
$70 | Releases November 20
The physical edition of Kirby Air Riders is available to preorder at Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy and GameStop.
Like all Nintendo-published games for Switch 2 (so far), Kirby Air Riders is a true physical edition with the full game file on the card. If you opt for the digital edition, just be aware that the download size is currently estimated at 25GB, which is over 10% of the Switch 2's usable storage space.
Kirby Air Riders Amiibo figures have two different in-game functions. You can scan Kirby or Waddle Dee on their own to train and level up your Figure Player (FP). If you place Kirby or Waddle Dee on their machines, you'll create a Rider & Air Ride Machine. And if you buy both Kirby Air Riders Amiibo sets, you can place Kirby on Waddle's Winged Star and vice-versa to unlock different character and machine builds.
