Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze announced for Switch

Donkey Kong will soon make his debut on the Switch with Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Nintendo announced today that the Wii U platformer will be released on the Switch on May 4.

The Switch version will include a new “beginner friendly mode”, which Nintendo describes as such:

“A new beginner-friendly mode lets players enjoy this critically acclaimed adventure as groovy surfing simian Funky Kong. Funky Kong can double jump, hover, perform infinite rolls and even perform infinite underwater corkscrews. Thanks to his sturdy surfboard, even spikes can’t slow him down.”
