Super Nintendo World’s Donkey Kong Expansion Is Getting a Nintendo Direct Broadcast

We have exciting news for everyone! A Nintendo Direct is coming up soon, but this time, it won’t feature any upcoming games or any news regarding “Switch 2.” Instead, Nintendo will offer a 10-minute preview of the new Donkey Kong Country expansion at Super Nintendo World in Universal Studios Japan. The broadcast will be live on 11th November 2024 at 2 pm PT/5 pm ET/10 pm GMT /11 pm CET/8 am AET (12th Nov).

Here is what the company said in their X post: If you’re curious about what’s in store for the upcoming Donkey Kong Country expansion, it’s definitely worth tuning in. Fans can look forward to exciting updates; even better, there’s a strong chance that Nintendo legend Shigeru Miyamoto will lead the presentation. His appearances always bring plenty of charm and fun, making the Direct even more engaging.



Nintendo’s last update on the expansion revealed a delay, moving its opening from Spring 2024 to “late 2024.” With this upcoming Direct, there is a strong chance we’ll finally hear the exact date. It wouldn’t be surprising if the new opening comes shortly after the broadcast, offering eager fans something to look forward to sooner rather than later.
