Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Updates, Dixie Kong Joins the Party

Surprisingly, Nintendo has updated Donkey Kong Country Returns HD. Version 1.1.0 introduces none other than Dixie Kong to the 2D platformer remaster, who, as in the sequel Tropical Freeze, will allow for an additional mid-air jump. The Turbo Attack mode also makes its appearance, in which we can move faster through levels, but we will also have to complete them before time runs out.

In addition, the game has been optimized for Switch 2, with higher resolution, reduced loading times, and support for the Game Share feature. Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is available exclusively on Nintendo Switch. Here's the trailer for today's announcement.
