Donkey Kong Bananza, a 3D platformer developed by the same team behind Super Mario Odyssey, is the second major Nintendo Switch 2 game, swinging onto the platform later this week.
In Donkey Kong Bananza, which looks absolutely bananas from early previous, you join Donkey Kong and a young Pauline on a trek to the planet’s core in order to fulfill Pauline’s wish — to go back home. On your way, you’ll meet a few friendly faces, collect huge golden bananas called Banandium Gems, and face off against a group of dangerous monkeys.
For anyone dying to get into the game and monkey around in the Switch 2’s second exclusive title, look no further! Here’s when Donkey Kong Bananza will release in your time zone.
Donkey Kong Bananza release time in your time zone
Donkey Kong Bananza will be releasing at midnight of your region’s easternmost time zone on Thursday, July 17. This can be a bit confusing for those who live in larger countries, but as soon as it hits midnight anywhere in your region, the game will become available to play — barring any hiccups.
To make things a little easier, here’s when Donkey Kong Bananza will be available in your time zone:
Now, you can technically change your account’s region to, say, New Zealand to get Donkey Kong Bananza as soon as possible, but that will come with a few drawbacks like unlinking your Nintendo Network ID and potentially being locked out of switching regions. Rather than having to deal with any issues, we’d suggest making an entirely new account in a different region if you want to go this route.
Of course, this will all only apply if you’re purchasing Donkey Kong Bananza from the eShop. If you’re getting a physical copy, you can play as soon as you’re able to get one.
Can you preload Donkey Kong Bananza?
Yes! You can preload Donkey Kong Bananza now as long as you’ve preordered it from the Nintendo eShop. You’ll need 8.6 GB of available space to download the entire game, so make sure to free up some space if you don’t have enough room.
Once it reaches midnight in your region, you can launch the game and monkey around!
