What’s more, Nintendo Life claims that a trusted source has also confirmed that Nintendo is working on a new mainline Donkey Kong game. Although the YouTuber admits the rumor is “unlikely,” the word of a new Donkey Kong game from the Mario Odyssey developers is corroborated by an extensive leak shared by Zippo. A new rumor suggests that a new Donkey Kong game is currently in development, what’s more, the game is reportedly being worked on by the team behind Super Mario Odyssey.Īs reported by Nintendo Life, YouTuber LonelyGoomba states that they heard a rumor that the Super Mario Odyssey developers are working on a 3D Donkey Kong game.
