In-depth Look at Donkey Kong Bananza

Nintendo just unveiled an 8-minute preview of Donkey Kong Bananza, showcasing diverse gameplay for this title, exclusive to the Nintendo Switch 2. With Pauline by his side, Donkey Kong embarks on a grand new adventure, leveraging his super strength to smash obstacles and uncover hidden secrets. This not only unlocks new areas but also provides him with items to aid in combat. Pauline also encourages him, and together they form a formidable team, allowing for cooperative play with friends. You’ll travel to the planet’s core to help Pauline return home. You can even play cooperatively with someone else across two separate Nintendo Switch 2 consoles, requiring only a single copy of the game. It’s important to remember: Donkey Kong Bananza is an exclusive Nintendo Switch 2 title. The game also features a robust co-op mode where a second player assumes the role of Pauline. She can even utilize the Joy-Con 2’s mouse mode for text-based interactions. Players can perform a wide array of actions in the game, such as tearing massive rock chunks directly from cliffs and then surfing on them, activating a Bananza power-up to demolish metal walls with a single blow, and freely climbing virtually any surface. Plus, you can collect attire that grants unique boosts. Furthermore, you can acquire new outfits for both Donkey Kong and Pauline.
