Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is a 2025 platform game developed by Forever Entertainment S.A. for Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2, presenting an enhanced version of the original Wii title in high definition. Players control Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong across 80 levels — including additional stages drawn from the Nintendo 3DS release — navigating environments that involve stomping enemies, riding mine carts, piloting rocket barrels, and mounting Rambi the Rhino. The game supports both single-player and local two-player cooperative play, allowing a second player to join the adventure. The level design spans a wide variety of obstacle types and traversal mechanics, maintaining the action-platformer structure of the original while consolidating content from its two previous releases into a single package.
The villainous Tiki Tak Tribe has stolen Donkey Kong’s precious banana hoard and the Kongs are barreling after them in pursuit!
