Plus a free costume inspired by Saegusa Akina from NIJISANJI.

Publisher SEGA and developer Ryu Ga gotoku Studio will release the version 2.0 update for Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble on November 26 alongside new downloadable content that brings Hatsune Miku and Godzilla to the game as guest characters.

Get the details below.

Godzilla and Hatsune Miku arrive as Guest Downloadable Content Characters
Smash through the competition as Godzilla, the mighty King of the Monsters, or party as the cheerful virtual singer Hatsune Miku, ready to share her love for music with the world. As noted, both will be available for purchase as playable guest downloadable content characters on November 26! Players can wreak destruction on fellow players as Godzilla, with banana pickups replaced by trains, or groove through various stages as MIKU, collecting musical notes in lieu of bananas.
NIJSANJI Costume Available for Download
For the Virtual YouTuber fans out there, a “NIJISANJI UKIUKI CUP Outfit Set”—which includes a NIJISANJI UKIUKI Cup logo t-shirt, monkey ball with the NIJISANJI UKIUKI Cup logo emblazoned on it, and costume inspired by Saegusa Akina from NIJISANJI—will be released on November 26 as a free download on the Nintendo eShop!

Super Punchy Brawl added to Battle Mode
Super Punchy Brawl is a new multiplayer game that will be added to Battle Mode as part of the 2.00 update. Here, players can send their opponents flying by knocking them off the map with a big boxing glove! Players can use panels scattered around the stage to buff their boxing gloves up to two times to make punches even stronger, increasing the amount of damage caused. They can also store damage from an opponent’s punch up to two times—the more damage stored, the easier it is to knock opponents away. The player with the most points at the end of the round wins! Furthermore, a new stage has been added to the existing Banana Hunt game.
Exciting New Content for Adventure Mode
Adventure Mode has received various updates to enhance players’ journey in finding the Legendary Banana in the 2.00 update, including a fun set of new rules, including:
Time Attack will now include a new Banana Bonus option where the players can collect bananas to reduce their overall time.
The No Miss Challenge tests players to see how far they can survive in Adventure Mode with only one life.
Super Speed makes players’ balls roll even faster. Don’t fall off the Stage!
Step into the world of your character with Monkey See, where players can see the world from inside their ball!
The bravest monkeys can show their skills with even more difficult courses in Ultimate EX stages.
A quick retry feature has also been added that allows players to immediately restart a stage without pausing the game. Plus, when you’re playing Adventure Mode with friends, you won’t have to disband your room anymore when going between Worlds.
The latest update will also include plenty of other content, including a character selection randomization feature; a bulk purchase function in the in-game Shop; the option to carry over save data from the demo; color options for players’ names, and more.
