Kirby Air Riders Set for First 2026 Update Soon

Upcoming 2026 Update for Kirby Air Riders
According to Nintendo’s Japanese customer support, players can expect several improvements with this update. These will primarily focus on bug fixes and gameplay balance adjustments.
Important Update Information
- The update is expected to roll out soon.
- Bug fixes and balance changes will be included.
