Thanks to the Nintendo parent site for leaking this.

Nintendo has dropped a random online fighter on the world.
Kirby Fighters 2, the sequel to 2014 3DS downloadable title Kirby Fighters Deluxe (itself a side game in Kirby Triple Deluxe), is now available on the Switch eShop. It retails for US$19.99/C$26.99.
The new Fighters 2 will feature 22 characters - 17 Kirby copy abilities and five friends including Metaknight and Gooey - battling in both a story mode and in multiplayer for up to 4 local / online players. Having save data for Kirby Star Allies or Super Kirby Clash on the same Switch will unlock special costumes.
This looks like that Free to Play Kirby Game, but with more content and perhaps better...but still doesn't look that exciting. Am I missing something? It is a budget Title for Nintendo being priced at $19.99 but still seems too much.
