Kirby's Return to Dream Land, known in Japan as Hoshi no KÄbÄ« Wii and in Europe and Australia as Kirby's Adventure Wii, is a Kirby video game and the twelfth platform installment of the series, developed by HAL Laboratory, and published by Nintendo. Kirby's Return to Dream Land features the staple gameplay of traditional Kirby platform games, in which the eponymous character Kirby possesses the ability to inhale and copy enemies in order to attain forms which give him a variety of attacks such as breathing fire or swinging a sword. In the January 2015 Nintendo Direct, it was announced that Kirby's Adventure Wii and other Wii games will be released for download through the Wii U's Nintendo eShop. Differing from other games in the Kirby series, this game features a completely 2.5-dimensional style of gameplay, and 3D modeled characters, enemies, mid-bosses and bosses are used, rather than sprites like has been done since Kirby's Dreamland. New powers introduced to this game are the Whip, which lets Kirby grab out of reach items, Water, which allows Kirby to cool fiery areas, and Leaf, which lets Kirby fire leaves. If one of the three additional players loses all of their health, they can spend an extra life to rejoin the game.
