- Up taunt has an altered animation.
Ground Moves
- Forward smash has an altered animation.
- Cargo throw now involves Donkey Kong hauling the opponent over his shoulder.
Aerial Attacks
- Forward aerial has an altered animation, with Donkey Kong performing a downwards punch without flipping, now looking identical to his aerial attack in Donkey Kong 64.
- Foward aerial is significantly faster.
Special Moves
- Donkey Kong can now use Giant Punch in midair without going into free fall.
- Donkey Kong now charges up Giant Punch with more circular arm motions. Additionally, his expression slowly gets angrier as he charges, and he has an altered pose upon using the punch.
- Donkey Kong now glints and strikes a pose upon ending a grounded Spinning Kong.
- Donkey Kong now has a new, yet unnamed Final Smash that comprises of a single punch that, if successfully landed, leads to a series of rapid punches that traps and launches the opponent, based off of his attacks in Donkey Kong Jungle Beat.
