Donkey Kong Bananza is the 3D DK game fans have been waiting decades for and also the perfect follow-up to Mario Kart World for the launch window of Nintendo Switch 2.
Donkey Kong Bananza differentiates itself from Mario by breaking the mold of the 3D platforming genre as a whole.
The Switch 2′s technology grants "Donkey Kong Bananza" destructible environments, in a perfect crystallization of Nintendo's game design philosophy.
A favorite is a full-on racing minigame which sees DK and Pauline facing off against Diddy and Dixie Kong on the back of a charging rhinoceros. Donkey Kong Bananza is densely packed with hidden goodies, the most significant of which are the Banandium gems.
Donkey Kong Bananza is the gorilla's first 3D platformer since 1999's Donkey Kong 64 and the first to be internally developed by Nintendo since 2005's Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. In our preview, it was confirmed that it is being developed by the same team behind Super Mario Odyssey.
