You’ll have a dash attack and a fast swim button at your disposal, and a new layer of depth has been added by way of an air meter - which needs to be periodically filled by grabbing bubbles in the sea. Although I was a bit worried as to how these would play out, I’m pleased to say that they not only are some of the best stages in the game, but I’m left wondering why Retro didn’t include them in the first place. Tropical Freeze also re-introduces swimming to the mix, which is tastefully done with the combination of light swimming levels and stages focused entirely around the activity. It is the fifth game in the Donkey Kong Country series and a successor to Donkey Kong Country Returns.

Fights can be lengthy but they’re extremely rewarding, and there are a few bosses in particular that I was highly impressed with. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze is a side-scrolling 2.5D platform game developed by Retro Studios and Monster Games for the Wii U. No doubt influenced by the return of David Wise, a few stages are even centered around a musical theme - much like Rayman Legends - but a little more seamlessly integrated into the level rather than celebrated. Bosses are legitimately hard this time around - so if you thought Returns had difficult encounters, you’re going to have fun with this one.
