"Evidence, fans believe, stems from datamined information from the Nintendo Today app, which shares daily bite-sized pieces of news and offers several themes based on various Nintendo franchises. A new Donkey Kong theme came to the app recently, and per datamines (which you can see on Mario Wiki), it looks like the app will highlight a character that had a surprise appearance in Donkey Kong Bananza."
"Back when Mario Kart World launched alongside the Nintendo Switch 2, sharp-eyed players noticed that the Japanese voice performers for K. Rool and Bananza boss Void Kong appeared in the credits, despite their characters not appearing in the kart racer. While it's possible that the two voice actors played different roles in the base game, fans took it as evidence that a Donkey Kong Bananza-themed expansion is coming to Mario Kart World."
Datamined assets from the Nintendo Today app point to a new Donkey Kong theme and an intro animation for King K. Rool appearing on December 15, marking an official acknowledgement of his surprise role in Donkey Kong Bananza. Credits in Mario Kart World list the Japanese voice actors for K. Rool and Bananza boss Void Kong despite those characters not appearing in the base game, which fuels speculation of a Donkey Kong Bananza-themed expansion. The timing of the app rollout shortly after The Game Awards has led to theories about a DLC announcement at the awards, and the limited Donkey Kong costumes leave room for a larger DK-centered expansion.
