Kirby Star Allies marks the pink puff's Switch debut. He's gone on some pretty epic adventures throughout the years but this time he's getting a helpful hand. In Kirby Star Allies, players team up with various characters to traverse levels and take down enemies.

When it launches on March 16, you will also get a free batch of allies to use from across Kirby's expansive library of titles. King Dedede, Meta Knight, Bandana Waddle Dee are all set to assist. With the first update of the game comes Rick, Kine and Coo from Kirby's Dream Land 2, Marx from Kirby's Fun Pak and Gooey from Kirby's Dream Land 3 will be ready to help in their own special ways. Those five will be made available days later on March 28.

It's a pretty good amount to choose from and more are on the way in the future. Check out the Kirby Star Allies demo via the Switch's eShop right now.
