Nintendo revealed major details about Donkey Kong Bananza during a special presentation. The mysterious Odd Rock character turns out to be young Pauline who wants to become a singer. She teams up with DK to stop Void Kong from reaching the planet's core. The game features environmental destruction as players smash and rebuild parts of the world. Pauline uses her voice to solve puzzles throughout their adventure.
DK transforms into three powerful forms using Bananza powers from Giant Elders. Kong Bananza makes him bigger and stronger for breaking tougher obstacles. Zebra form grants super speed for running across water and crumbling platforms. Ostrich mode allows flight and dropping egg bombs on enemies from above. Players switch between transformations using the Bananergy meter filled with collected gold.
The game supports two-player cooperation with Pauline riding on DK's back. She sends vocal attacks to help with combat and puzzle solving during gameplay. Nintendo Switch devices can share the game locally or online for multiplayer sessions. Players collect Banandium Gems, fossils, and complete challenge courses for skill points. These points upgrade DK's abilities like smashing, surfing, and double jumping. Donkey Kong Bananza launches July 17, 2025.
