Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble Adventure Mode Includes Multiplayer

Sega offered an update on the Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble Adventure noted and mentioned it offers 200 stages that can be played in multiplayer. These levels can be gone through alone or up to four people can work together to clear them. 

For those unfamiliar, these Super Monkey Ball courses will involve getting your monkey in their ball to the goal at the end of the course. As you get through different worlds, the difficulty ramps up and stages become more challenging. This version’s new additions include the ability to turn on options to help someone through a run. For example, someone could restart from a checkpoint if they fall off of the course. There can also be a Ghost or Route Guide to show you which paths to take through some stages or the moves to make to get past hazards. There will also be the ability to rewind. 

A first Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble Adventure trailer explains the point of the story. All of the monkeys and other animals are in search of a legendary banana that grants its bearer powers.  The video also shows gameplay through some of the stages and worlds. Among them are the Banana Farm, Rose Garden, Floating City, Golden Temple, and Stone Valley. 

We’ve seen quite a few Monkey Ball games in the last few years. One of the most recent ones is Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania. That one is something of a compilation game, going through “greatest hits”  from Super Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball 2 and Super Monkey Ball Deluxe.

Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble will launch on the Nintendo Switch on June 25, 2024.
