The Switch 2 generation is really shaking things up with updates and changes, but one of the big topics of conversation has been the makeover of Donkey Kong. He’s got a fresh new look in Mario Kart World and the latest release, Donkey Kong Bananza. And guess what? Diddy Kong is also getting a little update, as we discovered last week.
New graphics have been released from Nintendo’s official website, showing off the redesigned Donkey Kong and giving us another peek at Diddy’s new look. Fans of Donkey Kong recently stumbled upon some new renders at a licensing expo, and both Kongs are looking pretty expressive in this fresh artwork. As part of this Donkey Kong revamp, Nintendo has also revamped its accessory line, with water bottles and key chains sporting designs that match the Kongs’ new appearance.
It would be awesome to see Diddy Kong back with DK, especially in Bananza where some of DK’s buddies have already been spotted. What do you think of the updated looks for DK and Diddy Kong? Are you feeling it, or do you miss the old style? Share your thoughts in the comments section.
