Out July 17

There are no special editions available for "Donkey Kong Bananza." Your only decision is whether to opt for a physical or digital copy.

Yes, the MSRP Is $69.99

While Nintendo has introduced a new $79.99 price point for some Switch 2 titles like "Mario Kart World" and upgraded original Switch games such as "Super Mario Party Jamboree," "Donkey Kong Bananza" maintains a $69.99 MSRP. This is $10 more than the standard price for most original Switch games, but it's still a relief that it's not the higher $79.99.

What Is Donkey Kong Bananza?

Play

"Donkey Kong Bananza" marks the first new 3D Donkey Kong game since "Donkey Kong 64" on the N64 in 1999. The game introduces a novel digging mechanic where Donkey Kong can pound and smash his way through the ground or the sides of cliffs, uncovering secrets and treasures hidden beneath the surface.

Although much of the gameplay occurs underground, players will also explore a variety of above-ground environments, including forests, canyons, lagoons, and frozen tundras. Staying true to the series' roots, "Donkey Kong Bananza" includes classic side-scrolling and mine cart sections, promising a fun-filled experience.
