Create some accommodations for the Kongs
- by Liam Doolan
Donkey Kong Country Returns HD is set to arrive on the Switch next week, and Nintendo seems to have recently updated the estimated file size of the eShop release.
According to the eShop, this new version (which includes the Wii and 3DS content) has been reduced from 9.0GB to 8.3GB. As previously mentioned, the sequel Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is considerably 6.6GB in comparison.
The pricing for the Switch eShop version is set at $59.99 / £49.99, or you may use a Nintendo Voucher to acquire it in selected regions. Here’s what else you can expect when the ‘HD’ version of Donkey Kong Country Returns becomes available on Switch next week:
“Experience the game as it was originally intended for the Wii, or decrease the difficulty for additional hearts and other rewards to enhance your journey. This barrel-blasting quest is visually upgraded in HD for the Nintendo Switch and includes extra levels from the Nintendo 3DS version!”
