Go bananas for new details for Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble

Sega have released a new trailer and details for Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble, showing off some of the worlds that players will visit as they roll about in the adventure mode, either solo or with friends, check it out.

As the story goes, AiAi and friends are visiting a tropical island where they encounter a girl named Palette, who is an adventure seeking the Legendary Banana. Deciding this is a worthy quest, the gang join forces and venture across numerous world to collect special parts, said to be the key to locating their prize.

While not a definitive list, Sega have released a few details about one stage from the first five worlds, which you can read about and see some images of below.

World 1 – Banana Farm

World 1 is naturally designed to progressively teach players all the tools and tricks to set them up for the rest of their adventure! A great example is the stage “Rail Slider,” where steps and ramps taller than the player’s ball are placed throughout the stage. Use the new technique, Spin Dash, to make it through the steps!

World 2 – Rose Garden

In “Wonder Maze,” the stage is designed like a large garden maze. Players will need to look for the correct route to make it to the goal. 

World 3 – Floating City

The “Switch and Go” stage has switches that move the different scaffoldings. Here, players will need to use switches at the best time to reach the goal.

World 4 – Golden Temple

The “Rolling Balls” stage has giant balls that block the player’s way. Players must maneuver these giant objects to make their way to the end.

World 5 – Stone Valley

The “Rocket Launcher” stage has a goal that is located high in the sky. Use the rocket to get launched up in the air and aim for the goal!

You may have noticed a few icons in one of the screens above, those are switches related to that stage, but there are other things you can do, if you are someone who is not super confident in your monkey rolling skills. These accessibility options include: 

  • The ability to Rewind to a previous point of a stage and attempt a tricky area once more.

  • A Ghost Guide option, which will add a transparent racer alongside the player, demonstrating the key methods needed to reach the goal.

  • A Route Guide that will point you in the right direction if you’re not sure where to go.

  • The choice to restart at a Checkpoint within certain stages, and more!

Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble is launching on June 25th exclusively for Nintendo Switch.
