Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is coming to Nintendo Switch
The game will include the levels from the 3DS version of the game
Nintendo has announced Donkey Kong Country Returns HD.
Announced during a Nintendo Direct on Tuesday, the HD version of the Wii platformer will be released on January 16, 2025 for Nintendo Switch.
The title, which is a remaster of the Nintendo Wii title, includes 80 levels, including the new levels later added to the 3DS version of the game.
Donkey Kong Country Returns was released in 2010 on the Nintendo Wii. Developed by Retro Studios, the game was a commercial success, selling over 6 million copies.
The 3DS port of the game, Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D, was developed by Monster Games and released in 2013.
The game received a Wii U sequel, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze in 2014, a game which would later be released on Nintendo Switch in 2018.
Donkey Kong has remained a focus for Nintendo in wider media, taking a starring role in the Super Mario Bros. movie. A Donkey Kong-themed area will also be added to Super Nintendo World in Japan this year, with its American equivalent set for launch in 2025.
