You never know who you might meet here!
The many Layers of the Underground World are host to a variety of inhabitants. Some are friendly, some are mysterious, and some are…well, you’ll find out!
Familiar faces
As you venture through the Layers of the world, you might run into some familiar faces like Diddy, Dixie, Cranky Kong, and Rambi!
How low can you go?
The Void Company has blocked off all the routes to the lower Layers so no one could reach them.
Donkey Kong and Pauline, along with their pals, will come face to face with the enemies guarding these routes. You’ll need to use all the power at your disposal to take on a host of powerful foes!
By defeating them, giant sinkholes will open, clearing a path to the lower Layers of the Underground World.
A whole bunch of fun!
It turns out DK’s beloved “golden bananas” are actually called Banandium Gems. They can be found throughout the Underground World.

They're not always visible though. Sometimes they're buried in the walls, the ground, and other places.
You can also obtain these gems by completing challenges in the ruins found throughout your adventure.
As you collect Banandium Gems, your Skill Points increase, which you can use to improve your health, power, or even learn new skills!
Gold
There’s more than Banandium Gems in that terrain you’re smashing—there’s also gold, which you can exchange for items in the Stuff Shop.
Fossils
You can also find Fossils while you’re out exploring, which you can trade for new outfits at local Style Shops. Things you wear may have different benefits, marrying style and function!
