'''Mecha''' is a [[Copy Ability]] that will be debuting in the upcoming 2023 game ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'', as an addition to the base game. With this ability, [[Kirby]] gains a futuristic helmet with a translucent visor similar to the one for [[Jet]] Kirby, and also gains two mechanical fists and two giant jetpacks on his back which are painted blue. He can use this gear to fire lasers at enemies using the packs on his back, punch them up close with his robotic fists, or release a fiery burst attack that can light up dark places. When Kirby is [[dash]]ing, he will hover along using the pack instead of running.

'''Mecha''' is a [[Copy Ability]] that debuted in ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe]]'' as an addition to the base game, making its first appearance along with [[Sand]]. With this ability, [[Kirby]] gains a futuristic helmet with a translucent visor similar to the one for [[Jet]] Kirby, and also gains two mechanical fists and two giant cannons (which also function as a jetpack) on his back which are painted blue.
 
Kirby can use this gear to fire his Blaster Cannon at enemies using the cannons on his back, punch them up close with his Blazing Palm, release a Sizz-Zap Burst that can light up dark places, target skyborne enemies with Fireball Mortars, or place a Shock Bomb downwards. This ability also comes with a unique [[dash]] and [[hover]] where Kirby uses his jetpacks.
 
Mecha is exclusively obtained from [[Armoroid]], a new enemy added in the remake.


The name of the [[enemy]] that provides Mecha is unknown, but it appears to be a small bipedal robot.

==Trivia==
*The armor Kirby gains when copying Mecha strongly resembles the [[wikipedia:Gundam (fictional robot)|Gundam]] from the ''[[wikipedia:Mobile Suit Gundam|Mobile Suit Gundam]]'' series, a giant battle robot that is heavily influential in Japanese pop culture. In particular, the design takes from the Gundam's pointed samurai-like helmet, primarily white-and-blue color scheme, blocky robotic fists, and back-mounted laser cannons.
**For specific inspiration within the ''Kirby'' series, however, Mecha Kirby's attacks seem to draw heavily from [[Metal General]], while also incorporating ideas presented in elemental attacks from ''[[Kirby Star Allies]]''.
*Mecha is [[Kenta Nakanishi]]'s favorite Copy Ability from ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe''.<ref>Nintendo DREAM May 2023 interview ([https://gigi9714.wordpress.com/2023/04/07/translation-of-the-kirbys-return-to-dream-land-deluxe-interview-from-the-may-2023-edition-of-nintendo-dream/ translation])</ref>
