“Pull on a Transform Patch to reveal a Metamortex! Each Metamortex is different and will grant Kirby different abilities!”
— Kirby's Epic Yarn Instruction Manual, page 12

AMetamortex is a vortex-like object that appears inKirby's Epic Yarn andKirby's Extra Epic Yarn. OnceKirby (andPrince Fluff) have jumped in, the Metamortex will change them into a variety of special situational transformations.

Metamortexes appear in every stage that involves such a transformation, and will have a different icon in the middle of the vortex depending on what type of transformation it causes. At the end of the stage or section, aReel Gate is used to return Kirby and Fluff to normal. UnlikeCopy Abilities, they will not be lost when damaged.

In the fight againstYin-Yarn,Meta Knight drops a Metamortex for Kirby and Prince Fluff to transform into theTankbot, in order to counter Yin-Yarn's transformation into Mega Yin-Yarn.

Trivia[edit]

  • An official promotional website created in Adobe Flash forKirby's Epic Yarn listed off 9 of the 10 Metamortex transformations. The same site hinted towards more types of Metamortex transformations existing with the sentence"What other types of Metamortex could there be!?" in place of the 10th card. Although the phrasing of this sentence suggested that more than one Metamortex transformation not shown on the promotional website would be revealed in the full release, the only transformation at release that was not shown off on the promotional website was the Star Shooter.
