Confirmed Story

	This section is currently under construction

As Kirby naps under a tree, a group of robotic invaders—the Haltmann Works Company^[1]—descend from the skies of Dream Land and overrun Planet Popstar with machinery. Both King Dedede and Meta Knight retaliate against the invaders. King Dedede uses his castle's cannons and Meta Knight uses his Halberd, but the enemies' weaponry easily defeats both. Kirby wakes up and seeing the machinery, sets out to stop the invaders.

Spoiler alert: Plot-specific details are within this box

After defeating Clanky Woods in Patched Plains and Holo Defense API in Resolution Roads, Kirby encounters Susie in Overload Ocean, who informs him that the Haltmann Works Company is harvesting resources from Popstar, and it's natives are nothing more than nuisances to her. After a battle, she flees.

Kirby encounters Susie again in Gigavolt Grounds, where she praises their CEO, Max Profitt Haltmann. She then taunts Kirby, and reveals that Meta Knight was captured and mechanized into Mecha Knight, leaving them to battle. Kirby triumphs, but Meta Knight couldn't be saved and is launched into space.

Susie then reveals that multiple clones of King Dedede were made, as well as that the Haltmann Works Company is powering a wish granting machine, in Rhythm Route. The Dedede clones, however, were imperfect and couldn't stop Kirby.

At this point Kirby had defeated all of the areas supplying the company with power, and was able to breach the Access Arc. Mecha Knight puts up another fight, but after his defeat, President Haltmann reveals himself. He expresses disappointment in Susie's performance, and reveals his plans.

Haltmann had been studying the most advanced technologies in the world, and put together a wish granting computer named "Star Dream", and wasn't about to hand it over to Kirby. He fights in his Robobot, laughing like a madman, but as the battle progresses, he is revealed to be nothing more than a broken man desperate to revive his daughter (Who died in the process of creating the computer), and willing to destroy worlds for her.

After Kirby defeats him, he utilizes the power of "Star Dream" to fight back, controlling it with a head set, but Susie betrays him by forcefully taking it off. She tries to take over, but is shot down by the computer, which has gained sentience. It has possessed Haltmann, and speaks through him.

Haltmann speaks for Star Dream, who says that it's been studying the cosmos through the HWC, and that it's found all organic lifeforms to be a nuisance. It says it wants to thrive in a new age, after the destruction of all life forms. It sprouts angel-like wings and launches into space. Susie sees what's happened, finds a nearby Robobot Armor, and decides that Kirby would be the best suited to use it considering how far he's come. She pleads for Kirby to stop the machine.

In all the commotion, Meta Knight had escaped to Pop Star below, and retrieved the Halberd. From atop it, Meta Knight beckons for Kirby, who promptly uses the Armor to fuse with the Halberd. Kirby chases after Star Dream in the Halberd Mode Robobot Armor.

After a long battle, with the Halberd being shot down and Meta Knight ejecting Kirby and the Robobot Armor to finish the fight, Kirby loses consciousness. The Robobot Armor then proceeds to reach in and remove Kirby, sending him back to Popstar, but the Robobot Armor floats into space, shedding tears at the loss of Kirby. After all of the mechanization of Popstar is being undone, Kirby wakes up and is smiling at the sight of Popstar fully restored.

Players can scan amiibo to instantly obtain Copy Abilities, whether random or character-specific, depending on the amiibo used (for example, the Mario amiibo will give Kirby the Fire ability). Also, there will be a line of Kirby series amiibo, featuring Kirby, Meta Knight, King Dedede and Waddle Dee. When either of these is scanned, they will either give Kirby the UFO ability, or one of three custom-designed versions of existing abilities.

Trivia

On April 26, 2016, the ROM of the English version of Kirby: Planet Robobot was leaked on Reddit. This is the first instance of a Kirby game leaking online before its release in any region.^[6]
The "3D" part of the Kirby 3D Rumble logo appears to be an homage to Kirby: Triple Deluxe's logo.
Kirby 3D Rumble appears to be greatly inspired by Nintendo's second attempt at creating the canceled game Kirby GCN.
Kirby: Planet Robobot is the first the game in the series to come bundled with an amiibo figure.
All the first letters of the worlds together spell the acronym "P-R-O-G-R-A-M," hinting that the final boss is a program of some sort.
- This is similar to the acronyms in Kirby's Return to Dream Land and Kirby: Triple Deluxe, which spell out "C-R-O-W-N-E-D" and "F-L-O-W-E-R," respectively. These are only a few of the many acronyms in the series.
One of the pieces of artwork of Kirby greatly resembles his artwork for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U, which itself is based off his pose from Kirby's Dream Land 3.
