Summers are about big, fun, mind-numbing movies. Great escapes in the best of ways. I need that right now, and maybe you do too. I'm happy to say that Donkey Kong Bananza is here to whisk you off to multilevel worlds of satisfyingly smashing madness, to cheer you up and give you an excuse to punch the heck out of things. It's a game my 12-year-old son has loved playing along with me, although I've had to find ways to wrestle the game back to play for myself. I was wowed by Bananza during an ear

Donkey Kong Bananza turns destruction into joy

theverge.com Ash Parrish 2025-07-26 22:00:00

My first thought upon starting up Donkey Kong Bananza was, “Why yes, I actually would like to go ape shit.” The game starts by having Donkey Kong smash through a wall to reveal a glittering gem waiting to be liberated from the rock. But instead of punching the bright yellow gem into bite-size pieces, I kept punching through the walls and floors, digging tunnels into the landscape. With the Nintendo Switch 2 finally out in consumers’ hands for more than a month now and the luster of the console’

‘Donkey Kong Bananza’ Is the Switch 2 Launch Game You’ve Been Waiting For

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-08-20 08:00:52

Players who bought the Nintendo Switch 2 with the laser focus of playing Nintendo’s exclusive titles may have been disappointed that the sole first-party experience available at launch was Mario Kart World. You won’t have to sit on your hands for much longer—Donkey Kong Bananza, set to release on July 17, might just be the best reason to own a Switch 2 this early in its life cycle.

Donkey Kong Bananza unearths the franchise’s roots and rips them out

Several moments of my two-hour hands-on preview of Donkey Kong Bananza felt like I was playing the gritty 2009 action game Red Faction: Guerilla — except this time I was actually playing as a gorilla. For example, I had to level a multistory building during a timed minigame. Just like in Guerilla, I targeted the load-bearing columns with Donkey Kong’s ripped arms to quickly bring it down. Reveling in the destruction made me feel equal parts satisfied and sinister, all while Donkey Kong struck a
