Nintendo announced that classic Game Boy title Donkey Kong Land 2 is now available for the Nintendo Switch Online – Game Boy app, just a few days after the previous game came to Nintendo Switch. Nintendo Switch Online subscribers simply need to start up the app and update to the latest version to start playing Donkey Kong Land 2.
Here’s an overview of Donkey Kong Land 2, along with the launch trailer, courtesy of Nintendo:
K. Rool is demanding the entire banana hoard as ransom! Donkey Kong has been ape-napped, and it’s up to Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong to rescue their pal. Play as either Kong and take advantage of their unique abilities. Diddy’s Cartwheel can take out the bulkiest of baddies, while Dixie’s Helicopter Spin will let you hover over some tricky spots. There’s also a wild assortment of friendly animals ready to help out the two little Kongs. There are over 40 levels in all—each filled with traps, collectibles, dastardly Kremlings, and a boatload of barrels to blast out of!
Previously, Nintendo added both Shadow Man and Turok 2: Seeds of Evil to the Nintendo Switch Online – Nintendo 64: MATURE 17+ collection. These games are playable on a separate app from the standard Nintendo Switch Online – Nintendo 64 app.
Nintendo regularly adds more games to the Nintendo Switch Online service, including classic Game Boy and SNES games. Subscribers may upgrade to the Expansion Pack tier for access to Nintendo 64 and Game Boy Advance games. This year saw the additions of Microsoft’s Rare catalog, Mother 3 (Japan only), Super R-Type, F-ZERO Maximum Velocity, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team, the Starfy series, and much more.
