It’s official, folks: the Kirby<\/strong> franchise is now 30 years old – can you believe it? When HAL Laboratory’s debut title in the series – Kirby’s Dream Land<\/a> – launched on April 27th, 1992, we doubt that anyone truly believed the little pink blob would go on to be one of the most widely recognised and celebrated figures in the gaming space.<\/p>\n

With the launch of Kirby and the Forgotten Land<\/a> on Switch, the franchise shows no sign of slowing down; in fact, we daresay that Kirby’s first proper foray into 3D has done nothing but reignite interest in the franchise. There’s a lot of love for the series on a global scale, and folks have been taking to Twitter to celebrate the huge milestone in the best way possible: with beautiful artwork.<\/p>\n

We’ve rounded up some of the loveliest tributes to Kirby below; be sure to let us know in the comments how you got started with the franchise and what it means to you today!<\/p>\n

First up, the official Kirby Twitter page celebrated the franchise with some brand new artwork, showcasing some of the most iconic characters in the series alongside the rather delicious looking ‘Karby’ cake.<\/p>\n
