Just over a year after it first released, Donkey Kong Country Returns HD – a port of a now 15-year-old Wii game – has received a new playable character alongside Switch 2 enhancements.
Obviously, Nintendo is big on Donkey Kong again with the theme park, rumored movie, and the best game of 2025, Donkey Kong Bananza. But it's easy to forget that Bananza wasn't the only DK release in 2025, as a remaster of Donkey Kong Country Returns sneaked out in January and was swiftly forgotten about, aside from the complaints about its price and missing visual effects.
