People have been going bananas for Donkey Kong Bananza during its launch weekend, and no, I'm not going to apologize for phrasing it that way.

The mildest of spoilers for those of you who haven't embarked on your Bananza journeys yet, but the game begins in a linear starter area. Effectively a tutorial that has been disguised as a mini level to kick things off, as there are a lot of mechanics to get your head around. Once you're done, DK takes the plunge to Bananza's first full sublayer.
Can we not just all get along?
