Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Announced for Switch, Launches January 2025
Leaks have been claiming that a new 3D Donkey Kong game is in the works (or was at one point, at least) for a while now, and though Nintendo has yet to announce such a game, fans of the franchise are, at the very least, getting the chance to revisit one of its most beloved entries soon.
At the recent Direct presentation, Nintendo unveiled Donkey Kong Country Returns HD, an HD remaster of Retro Studios’ beloved 2.5D sidescrolling classic, which originally launched for the Wii back in 2010. The game will feature new controls and updated visuals on the Switch, while it will also come with all of the additional levels that the game’s 3DS release, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D boasted. Check out the HD version’s trailer below for a glimpse of what it will have in store.
Donkey Kong Country Returns HD will launch for the Nintendo Switch on January 16 next year. In the meantime, you can also check out its excellent sequel, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, which is also available on the Nintendo Switch.
