A significant update for Donkey Kong Bananza is rolling out today, bringing with it the beloved DK Island and an exciting new roguelike DLC mode called Emerald Rush. Players familiar with the classic Donkey Kong Country series will recognize the iconic design of DK Island. For those who have already conquered the main campaign, a new opportunity awaits: seeking out Void Kong to undertake missions collecting currency within the fresh Emerald Rush mode.
The Emerald Rush mode presents players with the challenge of acquiring Emeralds under a strict time limit. Success hinges on strategically finding upgrades and developing a powerful build capable of shattering rock formations to uncover even more emeralds. Additionally, players can invest in various perks and abilities to enhance their gameplay. As a bonus, permanent statue additions can be purchased to further adorn and customize your DK Island.
Both the new DK Island and the Emerald Rush paid DLC are scheduled for release later today. Keep an eye out for these exciting additions to expand your Donkey Kong Bananza experience. For more gaming insights, be sure to catch up on all the major announcements from the recent Nintendo Direct.
