An E3 announcement seems very likely.ДЇollowing the arcade and NES releases вЂ“ as well as an excellent Game Boy outing вЂ“ Donkey Kong was entrusted to UK studio Rare in the '90s, which produced three titles for the SNES. It sounds like this game is launching before the end of the year.

Diddy, Cranky and the Kremling Krew should all be returning in this installment. Don't expect the 'Country' moniker to return, as EPD Tokyo are not interested in making a sequel to games they didn't make. Retro is obviously busy with other things, so Nintendo has taken it upon themselves to bring DK back in as internal series. It's the big ape's 40th anniversary, and while I'm not sure how Nintendo is celebrating the occasion, there is a new 2D DK game being developed by EPD Tokyo. This rumour is also backed up by recent comments made by leaker Zippo: I think I would actually prefer that to another 3D Mario.- LonelyGoomba May 12, 2021 I heard an unlikely rumour that the Mario Odyssey team are working on a 3D Donkey Kong game. However, our source claims that the game will be 2D (or 2.5D, if you prefer) and not 3D. YouTuber LonelyGoomba has mentioned the rumour in passing on social media and other sources have also discussed it, but Nintendo Life can confirm that it has heard the same rumour from an independent (and very trusted) source, which would appear to lend this report some degree of legitimacy.

However, there are rumours that Nintendo is looking to resurrect the series by bringing it in-house, with development currently underway at Nintendo EPD, the team responsible for Super Mario Odyssey. Original Story : Donkey Kong is one of Nintendo's oldest video game characters, and while the series has seen some massive releases over the years вЂ“ Donkey Kong Country and Donkey Kong 64 being two notable examples вЂ“ the franchise has remained pretty dormant since Tropical Freeze, which made its debut on the Wii U back in 2014 before being ported to Switch in 2018. It probably won't have the Country branding, as outside of some retro-tinged arcade memorabilia, Donkey Kong Country IS the Donkey Kong brand now.
