New Gameplay Today – Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze On Switch
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is a pretty great game, but it may not have found the audience it deserved on its original Wii U home. Fear not! Nintendo is bringing the game to Switch in a few days, with a port that includes a new playable character. Join us as Kyle shows off Brian "Funky" Kong and his sweet moves.
Kyle calls Funky "easy mode," which is fairly self evident. The dude can hover mid-air on his surfboard, and even stand on spikes! Sheesh! Don't worry, though – he still manages to die at least once, though he will probably claim that it was on purpose so we could confirm that he wasn't using any invincibility codes.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze on Switch is coming out on May 4.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
