That news comes from co-director Kazuya Takahashi. Speaking in an interview that went live today, he spoke about how the Nintendo Switch 2 exclusive provides “leeway in terms of progression”. While games often block off sequence breaking, it’s allowed in Donkey Kong Bananza.

Donkey Kong Bananza producer hoping the game leads to 2D and 3D branches, similar to Mario
Posted on 1 month ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch 2 | 0 comments
In a new interview, Donkey Kong Bananza producer Kenta Motokura shared that he’s hoping the game leads to separate 2D and 3D branches of the series, similar to what we’ve seen with Mario.
Mario clearly has a subset of 2D and 3D games. With Donkey Kong, however, things are murkier. Part of that is simply due to a lack of games. We’ve seen a good amount of 2D Donkey Kong titles, but 3D has been underrepresented – fans know that Donkey Kong 64 was the last time there’s been something in the 3D space.
