Sakurai Says Kirby Air Riders Team to Disband After One More Balance Update

Support is ending under a no‑DLC production plan.

Overview

  • Masahiro Sakurai told fans on X that the development team will dissolve soon after at most one additional balance tweak.
  • He reiterated there is no downloadable content planned because the game lacks a DLC production setup.
  • Sakurai said the goal is to lock in a balance that can be enjoyed for years after a short remaining adjustment window.
  • Version 1.2.0 just rolled out with balance fixes and online improvements, including solo course tryouts during matchmaking and better connection stability.
  • Kirby Air Riders is available now on Nintendo Switch 2, with Sakurai presenting the team’s dispersal as a normal post‑release transition.
