Nintendo has announced a Donkey Kong Bananza direct for later this week.
It’ll be taking place on Wednesday, 18th June at 6am PT / 9am ET / 2pm UK time. According to the official Nintendo App where it was announced, the Donkey Kong direct will last only 15 minutes.
We’ve seen little bits of Donkey Kong Bananza here and there over the past few months. Back in April the game was officially revealed, alongside some gameplay which shows everyone’s favourite gorilla punching through the ground and barrelling through the open world.

He’s got a new look too, with Shigeru Miyamoto stating that when going back to the drawing board with Donkey Kong the team developers wanted something “more expressive”. Fans eager for the game also cracked the banana-centric language seen in small clips of the game, way ahead of its release.
It goes without saying, but don’t expect any other Nintendo games to show up as part of this direct. It’s a pure Kong affair. All monkey, all monkey business. But if you’re looking for more info on a brand-new game created for the Switch 2, it sounds like an event worth tuning in for.
