Kirby & Yoshi is the tentative title for an upcoming pitch of a fan-based crossover game between the Kirby series and Yoshi's Island series for the Nintendo Switch.

Gameplay[]

Kirby and Yoshi HUD Sketch

A "1-min sketch" of a prototype screenshot of the game.

It is a platform game that combines many different gameplay mechanics from recent Kirby games with the core mechanics of the Yoshi's Island series, and introduces new gameplay mechanics that combine the abilities of both eponymous characters in order to complete the stages in a linear story mode.

On single player mode, the player may switch between Kirby and Yoshi anytime. Kirby can absorb enemies and make use of his Copy Abilities to his advantage. Yoshi can eat enemies in order to create eggs which he can throw them as an attack.

On two player mode, each player chooses the character they want to control at the beginning of a stage, and can use their abilities as usual. However, Kirby may absorb Yoshi and use a unique Copy Ability to create more eggs for Yoshi to throw. If Yoshi Kirby then eats an enemy that would usually yield a Copy Ability, the now-called Star Egg produced will have special properties related to that Copy Ability.

Both Yoshi and Kirby have 8 units of health, represented in a similar way as they do in Yoshi's Story and Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards respectively.

Yoshi may also eat Kirby to use it as an egg, similar to how he can make a Yoshi as an egg in Yoshi's Woolly World. If Kirby has a Copy Ability other than Yoshi Kirby, all of his current eggs, including Egg Kirby, will become Star Eggs.

amiibo may be used for character customization.
