Nintendo made the announcement Tuesday during a special, live streamed Direct presentation hosted by acclaimed game director Masahiro Sakurai (Super Smash Bros.)

Sakurai shared details about Kirby Air Riders alongside gameplay footage. The game is a sequel to 2003's Kirby Air Ride for the Nintendo GameCube.

Kirby Air Riders is adding a second button to be used during races after the first game only required one button on a controller to be used.

City Trail mode is returning with an open-world area that players can explore for power-ups before later battling others inside of a stadium. The City Trail mode supports up to 16 players online and eight players in local wireless.

The sequel will also feature a bigger cast of playable characters, with Kirby being joined by King Dedede, Meta Knight, Chef Kawasaki, Starman and more.

Kirby Air Riders will retail for $70 when it launches.
