In this game, Dixie and Kiddy can travel freely across overworld maps. [[Funky Kong]] builds vehicles that are used to travel across the overworld and reach new worlds, and the vehicles are unlocked at various points in the game. There were various items to collect, such as various coins and [[Banana Bird]]s. Beyond that, the actual gameplay of the levels are mostly similar to the previous installments. Dixie retains her special abilities from the previous game, while Kiddy Kong acts as a powerhouse character like Donkey Kong once was. He can be thrown the air to break through certain surfaces.

Other characters are found across the overworld and in individual worlds. [[Wrinkly Kong]] again saves the game, while [[Swanky Kong]] runs minigames. There are also a variety of shops owned by the [[Brothers Bear]] that were used to earn more Banana Birds. [[Cranky Kong]] appeared only as a participant in Swanky's minigame in the original version, although he runs his own karate dojo in the remake.
