Controlled by a group of mischievous Tikis, the animals of Donkey Kong Island have raided Donkey Kong's Banana Hoard and stolen his stash of bananas - and he understandably wants them back.
Donkey Kong Country returns in this spiritual successor to Rare's landmark Super NES series. Developed by Retro Studios (Metroid Prime series), DKCR is the first Donkey Kong title since 2004's Donkey Kong Jungle Beat. At its core, DKCR is a throwback to old-school side-scrolling platforming, barrel cannons, mine carts, and banana-grabbing meant to evoke nostalgia in a huge nod to the original series.
New to the game is the ability for two people to play together at the same time, one as Donkey Kong, one as Diddy Kong. Players can navigate the levels separately or as one unit. Diddy Kong can ride on Donkey Kong's back and hop off whenever he pleases, allowing novice players to ride on Donkey Kong's back through more challenging areas of the game.
