This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following content:

  • Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2:
    • Donkey Kong Bananza – The big guy is back – and he’s not alone! Explore a vast underground world with Donkey Kong and Pauline by smashing your way through it! With DK’s brute force and Pauline’s special singing abilities, you can crash through walls, carve tunnels with your fists, punch straight down into the ground and even tear off chunks of terrain to swing around and throw in groundbreaking exploration. Take a deep dive into fun with the Donkey Kong Bananza game – available now on the Nintendo Switch 2 system!
    • Shadow Labyrinth – Navigate an alien maze and consume darkness in this 2D action platformer and genre-twisting alternate take on the iconic PAC-MAN series. On a mysterious planet littered with relics from past wars, Swordsman No. 8 is awoken by a floating yellow orb known as PUCK. You will shift between three different forms – jumping and slashing as the agile Swordsman No. 8, exploring in classic PAC-MAN style as MINI-PUCK, and unleashing devastating power as the mecha construct GAIA. Use these different playstyles to turn the tables on your enemies and grow from prey to apex predator. Shadow Labyrinth launches July 18 on Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2. A Digital Deluxe edition of the game will also be available, featuring a digital artbook and soundtrack. Pre-order is available now on Nintendo eShop.
    • The Wandering Village – In a world where mysterious plants are spreading all over the earth and emitting toxic spores, a small group of survivors seeks shelter on the back of a giant, wandering creature they call “Onbu”.
