What is Donkey Kong Country Returns HD?

Donkey Kong Country Returns HD isn't just a new release; it's a remastered experience with a history. Originally launched on Wii in 2010 and later ported to 3DS in 2013 (with eight exclusive levels), this HD version brings together all levels from both releases. Prepare for a challenging platforming adventure filled with classic Donkey Kong gameplay: leaping across gaps, swinging from vines, barrel blasting, banana collecting, and more! Enjoy the original difficulty, or opt for the easier 3DS mode with extra hearts and assistance. Two-player couch co-op with Diddy Kong adds to the fun. This is an excellent addition to the Switch library, earning an 8/10 in our review. Check out our review for more details on what's new and improved!
