IRVINE, California – June 25, 2024.
SEGA and Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio are today very happy and excited to announce that their charming and crazy platform game “Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble” is now available for the Nintendo Switch via the Nintendo Eshop.

Join AiAi and friends in their first new Super Monkey Ball experience in more than 10 years as they journey to discover the Legendary Banana, making new friends and foes along the way.

To celebrate the release of Banana Rumble, check out this hand-drawn animated launch trailer for the game:

Become a party animal with friends and family joining in on the action in Battle Mode, with up to 2 local players or a whopping 16 online players battling it out. There’s also the all-new Adventure Mode, where you will journey through 200 newly crafted stages either solo or in 4-player co-op! Customize your character by picking from a barrel-full of apparel, including clothes, footwear, accessories – even the monkey ball itself so you can look your best while leaving the rest in the dust.
