Nintendo confirmed via its official Twitter account that a follow-up broadcast—titled “Kirby Air Riders Direct 2″—will air on Thursday, October 23, 2025 at 6:00 a.m. PT / 9:00 a.m. ET. The company says the presentation will run for about 60 minutes and will be hosted by series director Masahiro Sakurai, who also led the initial August showcase. See Nintendo’s announcement.
The August stream revealed a great deal already: the playable roster (including Kirby, Meta Knight, Waddle Dee and King Dedede), a secondary input option for players, two distinct gameplay modes, and the slated release date of November 20. Since that first Direct lasted roughly 45 minutes, there’s still room for new details — whether expanded multiplayer information, additional characters, or deeper looks at modes and mechanics. We’ll be watching the October presentation to learn what Nintendo has added to the picture. Read our previous coverage.
