Kirby and the Forgotten Land's Nintendo Switch 2 Edition has a smaller file size than the original release

The technical wizards over at Nintendo work in mysterious ways…


Even though Kirby and the Forgotten Land’s Nintendo Switch 2 Edition is getting a significant 4K resolution bump, 60 fps, and a whole new content expansion in the form of the Star-Crossed World, the Japanese Nintendo eShop has confirmed that the game’s file size will be shrunken down by just a smidge with its new-generation port.



Kirby and the Forgotten Land was originally 5.8 GB on Nintendo Switch. On Nintendo Switch 2, the game is only 5.7 GB.


While 100 megabytes isn’t much of a difference, it’s still important to remember that Nintendo and HAL Laboratory managed to upgrade Kirby and the Forgotten Land and add more content to the game without using more data!
