DK64 Chronicles: FAQts

FAQts

It is very, very unlikely that you have no idea what DK64 is, but there are probably things that you don't know about it. Based on this whole idea, this page takes some of the most frequently asked questions about DK64 (the answers to which are available) and displays them for all to see so that those who read them don't ask the same thing over and over again. Well, here goes. Hang on to your socks:

What is DK64?

DK64 is the highly-anticipated 64-bit sequal to the series of Super Nintendo games called "Donkey Kong Country" created by Rareware, a publisher for Nintendo.

Is the name of the game going to be DK64?

Although most people think that the name will remain, Rare haven't said anything about it yet and still have the right to change it without publicly crossing anyone. DK64 is, currently, a working title.

When will DK64 be released?

Again, there could be set backs, but Rare is currently gunning for a November release. Almost exactly a year after Zelda 64's.

Which Kongs will be starring in DK64?

The playable characters include old favourites Donkey and Diddy as well as new-comers Lanky, Chunky and Tiny Kong. Rare say that other non-playable members of the Kong family will also appear but won't confirm who. Cranky appears in the opening movie and so, it's safe to say he's in there somewhere.

Any old baddies returning?

Certainly! So far, we've seen familiar faces like Gnawty, Kritter and Klump but there's no doubt that others will appear in the game as well.

Are the Kongs' moves going to be the same?

All 5 Kongs will have differant abilities and weaknesses and the basic game will handle a lot like Banjo-Kazooie. The basic moves, from what we've seen, include the classic kong jumps, climbs and swings but with some zany additions like differant projectile weaponary for every player.

Why not?
