Sometimes, taking a well-deserved break from all the actions and fighting is a necessity. Donkey Kong Bananza offers us a world filled with vibrance and beautiful scenery across all the layers in the game. This is where a particular feature in the game helps us appreciate the game even more and savor the moment.
In this article, we will look at how the photo mode works in Donkey Kong Bananza.
Photo Mode in Donkey Kong Bananza

Donkey Kong for the first time features an in-game photo mode to help capture some of the breathtaking moments you experience during your gameplay. Through this feature, you will be able to pause the game while having complete control of the current scene on the screen.
To enter photo mode, you can press the down (D-Pad) button. This action will pause the ongoing action on the screen, allowing you to move the camera around. You will have various tools at your disposal, which you can use to apply effects and get your perfect photo. Once you feel the photo is ready, you can use the capture button on your Joy-Con under the ‘Minus’ button and save the picture.
Photo Mode Controls
The photo mode can be used anytime during the game, regardless of whether you are free-roaming or during battles. The only condition is that you will need to have control of Donkey Kong to have it activate.
