'''Kirby''' is a playable character in the ''[[Brawl]]'' mod ''[[Project M]]''. For his appearance in ''Project M'', he has been given a buffed moveset that draws from both his ''Brawl'' and ''Melee'' versions, along with other unique changes that provide ''[[Project M]]'' Kirby with a distinctive playstyle exclusive to the mod.

As he was at the bottom of ''Melee''{{'}}s tier list, and only mid-tier in ''Brawl'', Kirby was heavily buffed in ''Project M'', keeping most of his attributes from ''Brawl'' while gaining buffed ones from ''Melee'', as well as receiving other new buffs (though with slight nerfs).

In addition, Kirby gains an alternate costume based on {{s|wikirby|Fighter Kirby}} as he appears in later ''Kirby'' games like ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'' in ''[[Project+]]''.
In ''[[Project+]]'', Kirby gains extra color palettes based on the {{s|wikirby|Spray Paint}} from certain ''Kirby'' games. His default set includes the chocolate spray paint. In addition, Kirby gains an alternate costume based on [[wikirby:Fighter|Fighter Kirby]] as he appears in later ''Kirby'' games like ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'' with his carbon color transferring to this outfit, and adding the citrus spray paint for green, a recolor based on {{s|wikirby|Prince Fluff}} and the orange spray paint for a fifth costume. The third outfit is a cowboy costume based on Kirby's appearance in the Quick Draw minigame from ''Kirby's Adventure''. This costume set uses the snow spray paint for the red costume along with the Whip Kirby hat. The green costume is based on emerald spray, the blue costume is based on the lavender spray paint and a fifth sepia costume to complete the set. The poses for all three model swap costumes now differ between them as of 2.4.

'''Z-Secret Costume:''' Yarn Kirby: Based on a 3D interpretation of Kirby's appearance in ''Kirby's Epic Yarn'' with a translucent exterior to help retain the authenticity from the source material.

'''R-Secret Costume:''' Headphones Kirby: Based on Kirby's appearance in the respective Sound Tests of ''Kirby's Adventure'' and ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards'', as well as when the [[wikirby:Mike|Mike Ability]] is used the second time in a row from ''Kirby Super Star'' onwards.


'''Z-Secret Costume:''' Yarn Kirby
==Trivia==
*His original R-Secret Costume in ''[[Project+]]'' was based on his original appearance in artwork and the Japanese cover of ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby's Dream Land}}'' and artwork of games prior to ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby's Dream Land 2}}''. This eventually transitioned to the Quick Draw costume from 2.3 of ''Project+'' onwards.
**Funnily enough, if one looks closely at Kirby whenever he's hit or launched, even in the base game of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'', his cheeks become whisker-like, possibly as a callback to his original appearance prior to ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards''.
*The sepia palette for the Quick Draw costume is based on the colors of the HUD icons of ''Kirby's Adventure'', from which the costume originated.
*The Fighter Kirby costume may possibly reference the ''Kirby Fighters'' series, which is a ''Kirby'' spin-off franchise similar to ''Super Smash Bros.'' that originated as a Sub-Game in ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe''.


'''R-Secret Costume:''' Classic Kirby
