Dream Friend
Dream Friends are special playable characters which Kirby can recruit in Kirby Star Allies. They are distinct from the normal Friends in that they do not represent any particular Copy Ability, instead having unique movesets. To obtain them, Kirby must unlock them, enter a Dream Palace, and then use the Dream Rod within to call them forth. They can then remain with Kirby indefinitely, only disappearing if they are un-friended or defeated. Dream Friends are also playable in Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go! where they can be chosen as the primary character, and The Ultimate Choice where they must be unlocked by completing this mode once.
List of Dream Friends
Kirby can recruit one Dream Friend each time he visits the Dream Palace. He can also recruit multiples of the same friend.
From Story Mode
These Dream Friends are available in the Story Mode, but two of them need to be unlocked by defeating them as Bosses first:
- Bandana Waddle Dee (available at start)
- King Dedede (unlocked once he is defeated in Clash at Castle Dedede)
- Meta Knight (unlocked once he is defeated in Sacred Square)
This trio are notably also the playable characters in Kirby's Return to Dream Land.
Wave 1 Update
These Dream Friends have become available from March 28th, 2018 when the game was updated to Version 2.0.0:
(Note that Rick & Kine & Coo are actually treated as a single character. They switch out for certain moves, and share the same health bar.)
Wave 2 Update
A new set of Dream Friends are scheduled to be added from the next game update in summer, 2018.
The following characters are confirmed in this set:
Jingle
Each Dream Friend plays their own jingle when they are summoned by the Dream Rod, or when they are selected on the title screen of Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!.
