Kid Icarus Uprising UK release date confirmed

Nintendo give Kid Icarus Uprising an exact release date

Nintendo announced that Kid Icarus Uprising would be coming to the UK in March back in December but this morning the company confirmed the actual Kid Icarus Uprising UK release date.

Pit will return to 3DS in Kid Icarus Uprising on March 23rd. Although Pit has been seen in Super Smash Bros Brawl, Kid Icarus Uprising is the first Kid Icarus game since Kid Icarus: Of Myths And Monsters was released for Game Boy in May 1992.

Nintendo's angel is enjoying a revival this year with the release of 3D Classics: Kid Icarus this month and then Kid Icarus: Uprising in March.

In Kid Icarus Uprising, Pit is recruited by Palutena to fight the the Queen of the Underworld, Medusa, and her Underworld Army in the air and on the ground.

Kid Icarus: Uprising isn't the only big game coming out in March. Mario Party 9 and Metal Gear Solid 3D are also on the way in a few months.

Are you saving up for Kid Icarus Uprising?

    I need money to see The Hunger Games on the 23rd so I won't be getting it on release..

    I want to get this but im so worried that its going to get boring really fast, maybe a demo would be a good idea for this game

    Very delighted, I cannot wait! Also looking forward to MGS 3D, March looks like it could be another really great month.

    (Also, isn't Luigi's Mansion supposed to be coming out around then as well...?)

    Errrm... Thomas!? I'm pretty sure it was called "Kid Icarus: Of Myths and Monsters", not of Myths and Men? ;).

    That is unlucky at least you won't have to wait to long after release to get it. :)
    For me it is the day after pay day so will be getting it on the 23rd March.

    Does anyone know when the AR cards that use Pit and the other Kid Icarus characters will be available?

    March really is "Christmas II"! I'm not sure I'll be getting it on release day, I definitely will be getting it.

    Am I the only one who thinks that Nintendo should've waited 2 more days and released this on the 25th March to celebrate the 1st anniversary of the 3ds in europe?

  13. PeaceGirl Wednesday 25th Jan 2012 at 15:48

    Well I'll be seeing The Hunger Games and then I'll buy the game afterwards.

    This is out the day before my birthday, of course I'm gonna get it!
