Nintendo showed off a new limited-time Donkey Kong event for Switch Online subscribers on Switch 2 at today's https://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-direct-june-2026-all-the-biggest-announcements-and-games/">Nintendo Direct.
Called DK Challenge, the experience sees players completing tasks across Donkey Kong games, ranging from Donkey Kong Country to even https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/donkey-kong-bananza-review-a-new-start-for-nintendos-first-star/1900-6418382/" id="https://www.gamespot.com/reviews/donkey-kong-bananza-review-a-new-start-for-nintendos-first-star/1900-6418382/">Donkey Kong Bananza (if you own the Switch 2 exclusive).
DK Challenge is accessed through the Nintendo Switch Online app on the Switch 2 Home Screen.
From there, tasks are available to complete: There's a mine-cart challenge in Donkey Kong Country, for example.
By successfully finishing one of these mini-sessions, the game will reward you with challenge cards.
There are apparently easy challenges to get a feel for games, like Donkey Kong 3.
But Nintendo noted there are harder tasks titled Developer Challenges to check out, too.
Later today will see DK Challenge go live, with the event running through September 1.
It's only available on Switch 2.
That wasn't the only Donkey Kong news either, as Nintendo revealed https://www.gamespot.com/articles/donkey-kong-banazas-mario-inspired-update-has-the-strangest-limitation-imaginable/">a Mario-inspired update for Donkey Kong Bananza.
