No surprise really but very welcome news. I did briefly look at where they were located when I was in Milan on Monday but was kind of on the outskirts unfortunately. They were looking for narrative folks not too long ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 I might get the season pass. Don't care about the other things, but it's only a few quid more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim B Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 I'm really enjoying the Donkey Kong Adventure DLC. After finishing the main game very recently, it's nice to go back to some easier battles again! The pre-requisite for starting this DLC is to have completed World 1 of the main game. Five battles down and I haven't had any trouble progressing...yet. You get to play as Donkey Kong, Rabbid Peach and Rabbit Cranky Kong in your team, and it doesn't seem you can switch characters at all, which I kind of like. Can do without the hassle of that.

Ashley Posted June 27, 2018 Share Posted June 27, 2018 So it's essentially a cheap (and I mean that in a good way) spinoff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MindFreak Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 The ultra challenges that unlock after clearing the 12 ordinary challenges are just no fun at all because it's impossible to get a clear overview of the entire field. Its really sad that they didn't add a better camera to the game. Other than that, almost done. I still need to find 4 puzzle pieces, though. Spent 7.5 hours on the story to get Perfect on all and then a couple of hours on the challenges that unlocked. I think that's great value for the money and can really recommend this for fans of the main game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob3008 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 (edited) Has anyone else encountered any errors with the post-game DLC? There's a challenge called Jungle 2 where you had to defeat 2 mid-bosses and some other enemies but the game keeps crashing and throwing me out.

Ashley Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I had a weird thing once where DK had used his weapon and the gameplay flow never went back to him, it just stuck on the zoomed out camera. Just finished the main story for the DLC. I think Eurogamers "it's more of the same, for better and worse" is an accurate description. It's still a fun challenge and has some great writing, but there are still frustrations such as the block pushing (as the game progresses it feels more and more like an attempt to expand the game time). It's a shame you can't use the DLC characters in the main game, although I'd understand DK would be nerfed as the levels wouldn't be built around his moveset. Spoiler What's with some weapons being unlocked after you've finished? Maybe the same in the main game and I forgot, but even so. Also, was the last level supposed to be lacking in music? It may have meant to be atmospheric, but just ended up feeling like the game was glitching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob3008 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) I finished the DLC over the weekend (aside from getting all the jigsaw pieces) and it's a HUGELY generous portion of content as there's a lot of extra challenges, even after the main story element. Now to go back and try to complete even one of the Ultimate challenges which keep whopping my ass Edited July 23, 2018 by Rob3008 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 On holiday atm so of course brought my Switch and thought I'd (finally) give the Donkey Kong Adventure a go. As reported and predicted, it's fantastic. I also get the impression they've made the cutscenes a LOT better, they seem to be of a higher quality than the original game. What a delightful game this is, a real gem. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheikah Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 So this game is on sale at £15 right now on the eShop, until 7th Jan. Or £12.79 if you buy it from the Russian eShop. I smell a bargain! I'll be getting this for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashley Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 If we did get a sequel I wonder if they'd expand it out a bit. Maybe have a crossover with Zelda as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindFreak Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 It could very well be that a sequal would not have Mario characters in it. That probably wouldn't really provide a new experience. A Zelda + Rabbids would be fun to see, perhaps a Fire Emblem + Rabbids? Or well.. StarFox + Rabbids! Or.. even F-Zero + Rabbids! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
