Donkey Kong Country Returns HD has gotten a new update and a Nintendo Switch 2 overhaul. The platformer, which we adored, has been update to version 1.1.0, boasts a number of changes, tweaks, and improvements. First, check out the overview from Nintendo:

Here’s the breakdown of what the update has brought to the game:

  • Dixie Kong: Dixie is playable in both single-player and two-player local co-op
  • Turbo Attack: High-speed versions of each stage
  • Nintendo Switch 2 Enhancements: Switch 2 users will get enhanced resolution, higher-definition graphics, and quicker load times. GameShare support has also been added.

The update is available now, so you’re welcome to boot up the game and give it a download to try it all for yourself.
