Our final Donkey Kong Bananza demo gave us a two hour tour of a chaotic platformer clearly built from Super Mario Odyssey's DNA.

Players who bought the Nintendo Switch 2 with the laser focus of playing Nintendo’s exclusive titles may have been disappointed that the sole first-party experience available at launch was Mario Kart World.

After playing Donkey Kong Bananza, it sure seems like the game is a prequel to Super Mario Odyssey, and the DK series as a whole.
