''Kirby and the Forgotten Land'' is the first mainline ''Kirby'' game to take place in a 3D setting, albeit with Kirby having much of the same moveset as in the 2D games. He can walk, [[dash]], and [[jump]] to move around each level. He can [[hover]] as always, but it appears to have a limited height in this game, unlike the unlimited height seen in 2D titles. Kirby can also [[guard]] against incoming attacks and [[dodge]] out of harm's way. Lastly, he keeps his trademark ability to [[inhale]] objects, including larger ones, and spit them out as projectiles. It seems that [[Star Bullet]]s do not appear in this game, and Kirby instead spits out objects as-is, much like in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]''. The familiar [[Copy Ability|Copy Abilities]] also return, now with expanded attacks that take advantage of the third dimension.

Collectibles along the way include [[Point Star]]s and [[food]], as well as new objects of unknown purpose, such as a green diamond, and even a pile of bananas. Kirby can now obtain Point Stars by defeating enemies, along with finding them out in the open and within [[Pop Flower]]s. It is not yet known how Kirby travels to and from each level, but he is seen riding a [[Warp Star]] to various locations. Levels are much more open-ended than in previous installments, and [[door]]s appear to be fewer in number. The main objective appears to involve freeing Waddle Dees from cages, rather than simply reaching a goal door.
The game does not appear to be an open-world game, as it is said in official sources that Kirby runs through stages as he looks for goals.<ref>[https://twitter.com/Kirby_JP/status/1441171248260665344 Tweet about the game from Kirby_JP]</ref><ref>[https://topics.nintendo.co.jp/article/b795436b-7df8-4216-9dff-6c38e920b48a Nintendo's Japanese article about the game]</ref><ref>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/switch/arzga/index.html Japanese website for ''Kirby and the Forgotten Land'']</ref> However, details about how the game is exactly structured are currently unknown.
