The improvements were worked on by the Polish studio Forever Entertainment SA. The patch adds a new playable character — Dixie Kong. She is available in both single-player and local co-op. Players can choose who will take action — Diddy or Dixie, and in the two-player mode you can switch between characters with a single press of the stick.
Turbo Attack has appeared — a mode for speedrunning the level. It opens after the first completion of the stage, works in parallel with Time Attack and rewards a turbo medal for meeting the time limit. Support for Brazilian Portuguese has also been added, and image quality and minor errors have been fixed.
For Switch 2 owners, the key changes are improved resolution and image clarity, faster loading and optimization for the console screen and TVs. Additionally, a local GameShare mode has appeared: just go to the "2 player" section and select the desired option.
The update is distributed free of charge.
