Following the teaser from a few days ago, the Kirby series’ official Twitter account revealed the next Dream Friend buddy that will join Kirby: Star Allies in the summer update with Dark Meta Knight. Here’s a little reveal video:

Dark Meta Knight made his debut in the 2004 Game Boy Advance title Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, where he appeared as a dark copy of Meta Knight. He’s been a recurring villain in the series ever since, but this time he’ll fight by Kirby’s side as a new Dream Friend in the summer update.
Kirby: Star Allies is available on Nintendo Switch.
