About Kid Icarus
Kid Icarus is Nintendo's Greek-myth action series starring the angel Pit on his quest for the Three Sacred Treasures. Release order is the recommended play order, running from the 1986 original through Kid Icarus: Uprising (2012).
Good to know
Director Masahiro Sakurai has said a follow-up would need a new team, and Nintendo has announced nothing, so Uprising remains the latest entry. The 3D Classics port of the original is the same game and gets no separate slot.
