Donkey Kong Country Returns This Holiday Season
In a press conference that has seen the return of a number of classic Nintendo franchises, perhaps the biggest surprise was the announcement of Donkey Kong Country Returns, a brand new 2D platformer for the Wii created by Retro Studios, known for its work on the 3D Metroid games. The video shown demonstrated DK and DK Jr. in some fast and hectic 2D levels, and even -- if we saw correctly -- engaged in some pit fighting! The game looks great, and the best news: it's coming out this holiday season.
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.
