For the collaboration with Kirby and Craft Boss, Suntory uploaded a commercial featuring four arrangements of “Green Greens.” This concept is part of Craft Boss’s “Song & Craft Boss” campaign, which features QR codes on the labels of Craft Boss coffees. When you scan the QR code, it takes you to a playlist designed to help someone get into the mood to work. [Thanks, Famitsu!]
Both Craft Boss and Kirby turn 30 years old in 2022. The four genres for the “Green Greens” arrangements in this commercial are bossa, chill-out, pop, rock. Each one coincides with the four kinds of music that you can play from the Craft Boss labels. For a limited time, you can hear the full versions of the “Green Greens” arrangements via Spotify. However, it appears that you will need a QR code to access it.
Here is the Kirby and Craft Boss commercial with a “Green Greens” medley:

For the franchise’s 30th anniversary, the Kirby Cafe also introduced new items. The menu additions coincided with the release of Kirby and the Forgotten Land. You can get items such as a cake that looks like Karby (Kirby after he eats a car in Mouthful Mode) and a Happy Birthday Kirby dome-shaped sponge cake.
The Kirby and Craft Boss collaboration will run in Japan from April 4, 2022 to May 2, 2022.
