What is Donkey Kong Country Returns HD?

This HD release combines the original Wii game with the eight additional levels from the 2013 3DS port. Known for its demanding gameplay, this version offers both the original challenging experience and an easier mode (from the 3DS version) featuring extra hearts and assistance.

Expect classic Donkey Kong gameplay: jumping, vine swinging, barrel blasting, banana collecting, and more. Two-player couch co-op is also available with Diddy Kong.

Our 8/10 review highlights the enhancements and overall quality of this Switch port. It's a fantastic addition to the Switch library.
