Mario vs. Donkey Kong Release Date

The remake will be released on Feb. 16, 2024. Players can pre-order the physical or digital versions on Amazon, Best Buy, GameStop, and the Nintendo eShop for $49.99. Mario vs. Donkey Kong is also Game Voucher eligible. As of writing, no premium editions are available for the game.

This Nintendo Switch version of Mario vs. Donkey Kong is a remake of the original 2004 Game Boy Advance title. In it, Mario must find the mini-Mario figures that Donkey Kong stole from the factory. Each stage has a puzzle that requires players to carefully observe their surroundings to get to a key in the level. Several obstacles, like enemies, spikes, and moving platforms, will make the journey difficult. Players must also use backflips to reach high places and press buttons to change the environment.

In this visually-enhanced version of Mario vs. Donkey Kong, players can also travel with a friend in local co-op mode.
