Nintendo Music App for Switch Online Subscribers Adds Massive 'Kirby and the Forgotten Land' Soundtrack, Creating Online Buzz

The smartphone app "Nintendo Music," exclusive to Nintendo Switch Online subscribers, has added a massive collection of songs from the popular game *Kirby and the Forgotten Land*, generating significant buzz on social media. Today, August 26th, 91 new tracks were released, bringing the total number of available songs to 114, including existing ones. The news spread rapidly, garnering such a reaction that "Nintendo Music" even trended on Yahoo! Japan.

The newly added tracks include numerous background music (BGM) pieces from *Kirby and the Forgotten Land*, even those heard after completing the game. Fans are particularly excited about the long-awaited Japanese version of "Welcome to the new world" and the emotionally stirring "Faded Psychometric Dream." Other classic tunes in the lineup include "Wondaria Parade Dream," "Decisive Battle! Ultimate Z," "Battle of Blizzard Bridge," "Frozen Metro," and "Washed Away in the Sewers." Additionally, a special playlist centered around the popular character "Leongar" has been released, allowing users to dive deeper into the game's world.

On social media, numerous voices expressed their joy, with comments such as "The complete BGM for Forgotten Land is here!", "I'm so happy, I was a soundtrack CD refugee!", and "It brings back all the excitement." Many users are delighted to relive their memorable gaming experiences through the BGM, leading to new habits of enjoying game music during commutes, school, or work. Some users even expressed their astonishment at the sheer volume of added tracks, saying they were "trembling with surprise." Furthermore, with the release of *Kirby and the Forgotten Land Switch 2 Edition + Starry World* on August 28th, this music addition seems to be an excellent opportunity for fans to prepare or review the game.

On the other hand, some requests have surfaced regarding Nintendo Music being an ancillary service of Nintendo Switch Online and its availability being limited to smartphones, with users wishing for "PC support, like Spotify." However, the rapid expansion of the service with the addition of songs from various popular titles has also garnered praise, with many calling it "Nintendo Music, too strong," further enhancing its appeal to subscribers.

This massive addition of *Kirby and the Forgotten Land* tracks has once again demonstrated that Nintendo Music is becoming an indispensable tool for game music fans. User anticipation continues to grow for what other game BGM titles will be added next.
