Kirby Air Riders Update Adds Two Amiibo and Warns Players About Replay Incompatibility

The June 2 patch tells players to convert older replay files to video using a microSD Express card to avoid losing stored replays.

Kirby Air Riders 1.3.3 update
Kirby Air Riders For Switch 2 Has Received A Small Update Today

Overview

  • Nintendo released Version 1.3.3 for Kirby Air Riders on June 2, 2026, and the update adds in-game support for Sword Kirby (& Dragoon) and Noir Dedede (& Hydra).
  • The official patch notes say Ver. 1.3.3 may not play back replays from versions 1.3.2 through 1.3.0 and is incompatible with replays from 1.2.0 and earlier.
  • Players are instructed to use the game's Record option in Cached Data and Data Replay to convert important replays to video before updating, and that conversion requires a microSD Express card.
  • The patch lists no bug fixes or balance changes, making this release primarily a content and compatibility update rather than a gameplay revision.
  • This change continues Nintendo's pattern of enabling amiibo features inside games before physical figures ship, and King Dedede (& Tank Star) support was added in February ahead of that figure's July 2, 2026 launch.
