In addition, there are some barrels that can only be activated by a specific character. Bonus barrels hidden throughout the game transport the player to a bonus game, which features a challenge such as eliminating all enemies in order to earn a 'Kremcoin'. Aside from checkpoint barrels, some give the player temporary invincibility or an 'animal friend'. As with its predecessor, the game features barrels that will propel the player in any direction they are facing.

Some levels feature different mechanics and settings, such as underwater sections, riding a mine cart, grappling onto vines, and beehive levels which feature sticky honey-covered surfaces. The game features environmental effects throughout some levels, which include fog, rain, and thunderstorms. These animals have unique abilities which the player can utilise, such as Rambi's ability to charge at enemies, Squawks' ability of flight, and Rattly's ability to jump extreme heights. Playable animals include Squitter the spider, Rambi the rhino, Rattly the rattlesnake, Enguarde the swordfish and Squawks the parrot.

The game also features 'animal friends', which returns from its predecessor. The player can pick up the other character and throw them in any direction, similar to barrels. Дiddy and Dixie have unique attributes Diddy is more agile and will run faster, whereas Dixie has a higher jump and can spin her hair in order to glide. If the player loses all of their lives, the game will end. If both characters die, the player will lose a life and will restart from either the beginning of the level or from the last checkpoint, which comes in the form of a star-painted barrel. The player can reclaim their partner from marked DK barrels throughout the game. When hit by an enemy, the active character leaves the screen, thus control will switch to the other character. Similar to its predecessor, the player-characters may neutralise most hostiles by jumping on their heads, cartwheeling through them, or throwing a barrel at them. Each world culminates with a boss fight, which is required to be defeated in order to progress to the next world. Enemies in underwater sections include pufferfish, stingrays and piranhas. The game features a wide number of enemies, which include land-based reptilian Kremlings, rats, porcupines, bees, and vultures.

The main objective of the game is to rescue Donkey Kong from King K.
