Yes, the MSRP Is $69.99

Nintendo has been pushing a new $79.99 price point for some Switch 2 titles (we're looking at you, *Mario Kart World*) and even some revamped original Switch games (*Super Mario Party Jamboree*, anyone?). However, they're sticking with the more reasonable $69.99 for *Donkey Kong Bananza*. That's a $10 increase over the standard price for most original Switch games, but it's a relief that it's not hitting the $79.99 mark.

What Is Donkey Kong Bananza?

Play

*Donkey Kong Bananza* marks the first new 3D Donkey Kong game since the iconic *Donkey Kong 64* on the N64 back in 1999. The game introduces a novel digging mechanic, allowing Donkey Kong to pound and smash his way through the earth or the sides of cliffs. The trailer hints at a wealth of secrets and treasures waiting to be unearthed underground.

While much of the gameplay appears to delve into subterranean realms, you'll also explore diverse settings like forests, canyons, lagoons, and frozen tundras. Staying true to the series' roots, expect side-scrolling and mine cart rail-riding sections that promise a fun-filled adventure.
