Donkey Kong Country Returns







It may look familiar, but there's plenty of fresh gameplay under the hood, not to mention a whole new enemy. So long Kremlings!






As you'd expect, the dynamic duo of Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong are back for DKC Returns, but the most immediately significant difference between this title and the older ones is that it's no longer one player tagging between the two, but a simultaneous two player co-op experience. Each character has his own feel, and fans of the old games will immediately notice that DK has a very familiar weight to his movement. In terms of moves, Diddy Kong now has a jetpack on his back, which allows him to hover during a jump. It doesn't get him any additional height, but it does let him glide along, leaving curls of black smoke in his wake. Donkey Kong, on the other hand, has his normal large - but lumbering - jump, so the timing for long leaps is a little more demanding.
