Donkey Kong Bananza

Join DK and his companion, Pauline, as they delve deep underground—and discover that this subterranean world is a lot more than it seems on the surface. Uncover a variety of environments such as arid canyons, lush forests, and frigid tundra as you peel back the world’s layers!

The Planet Core is said to have the power to grant any desire—and Void Kong, the ruthless head of the greedy Void Company, will stop at nothing to reach it and claim all the world’s riches for himself. Smash your way to the Planet Core before the greedy Void Company gets there first!

Key Features

BREAK IT DOWN Bash through just about anything with the raw power of Donkey Kong! Crash through walls, carve tunnels with your fists, punch straight down into the ground, and even tear off chunks of terrain to swing around and throw – the more you smash, the more secrets you’ll open up to explore.

PEEL BACK THE LAYERS Delve deeper underground to discover a subterranean world that’s more than it seems on the surface. From lush lagoons, enormous canyons, and even frozen tundra – each layer is full of surprises. These layers are also home to inhabitants who need help dealing with Void Company’s shenanigans.

OH, BANANA! Each layer is chock-full of golden goodies to unearth, and chief among them are Banandium Gems. Collecting these tasty treats will earn you Skill Points to increase DK’s max health, power up his punches and learn new skills.

UNLEASH THE BANANZAS! By harnessing Bananzas, ancient powers passed down in the Underground World, Pauline’s singing can make DK transform into new animal forms. These transformations won’t last forever though, so use them wisely and gather up gold to keep your Bananergy topped up.

TEAM UP WITH A FRIEND In 2-player co-op mode, one player controls Donkey Kong while the other can be Pauline, riding on DK’s shoulder, using her powerful vocal blasts to clear a path and zap baddies. (You can even try Joy-Con™ 2 mouse controls for more precise aiming!) Pauline can also copy nearby terrain to add some environmental umph to her blasts. When DK and Pauline work together, the bad guys don’t stand a chance!
