With less than a month left before the release of the exclusive masterpiece "Donkey Kong Bonanza" on the Switch2 platform, Nintendo's official update shows that the game will take up 8.5GB of storage space. As the first 3D orthodox sequel since the N64 era, this work that puts Donkey Kong back in the center position is highly anticipated.

In a recent exclusive direct meeting, Nintendo revealed that Pauline will appear as a partner, support two-player cooperative mode, and character transformation. According to the latest data on the Japanese Nintendo official website, the game capacity has been optimized from the initially announced 10GB to 8.5GB. Although the reduction is not large, it can slightly alleviate the storage pressure of players.

Although Nintendo is known for optimizing storage capacity, the size of Donkey Kong Bonanza is still significantly smaller than another Switch2 exclusive Mario Part Would (21.9GB). Judging from the diverse terrains such as the destructible underground levels and snowy/tropical scenes that have been released, this game may present rich content far beyond the storage capacity.

At a time when the new 3D Super Mario Bros. is still unclear, Donkey Kong Bonanza, which will be released on July 17, may become a surprise to fill the gap.
