Well folks, seems like we’ve got another Nintendo Direct on the horizon. Yep, as revealed in the Nintendo Today app, a new Nintendo Direct is due to air this Wednesday at 2pm.

A Nintendo Today post revealing a new DK Bananza Direct
What’s more, it’s a Donkey Kong Bananza specific one too. As mentioned by Nintendo, it’s 15 minutes of information about DK’s new adventure, with all kinds of details regarding characters, game mechanics and content in general.
And to be honest? It’s very heavily needed right now. Donkey Kong Bananza looks to be a great game based on the trailer and footage we’ve seen already, but there are still loads of questions as to how it all works. Are Diddy, Dixie and the other Kongs playable characters alongside DK himself? What role will Pauline play, based on that mysterious artwork from the Nintendo Korea site? Will Void Co be the only villains here, or will K Rool return alongside the Kremlings like fans predicted?
All these questions and more could be answered in a Direct like this. We could see more classic DKC mechanics in 3D, find out the role characters like Diddy and Funky play in the new story, and get a ton more info about the game’s progression structure and setup.
So yeah, get ready folks! A DK Bananza Direct is on the way, and will air at these times in each region:
Region | Direct Time |
---|---|
North America | 6am PDT/9am EDT |
UK | 2pm BST |
Europe | 3pm CEST |
Japan | 10pm JST |
Australia | 9pm AWST/11pm AEST |
It’s gonna be awesome for sure!
