Game Description
Gruntilda is back, and this time she's got a bone to pick with everyone! Banjo-Tooie reunites Rare's beloved bear-and-bird duo for a massive 3D platforming adventure packed with outrageous characters, clever puzzles, and unforgettable surprises. After Grunty's scheming sisters rescue her skeletal remains, the wicked witches unleash a sinister plan to steal the life force of the Isle o' Hags. With their friend Bottles caught in the crossfire, Banjo and Kazooie set out to stop the terrible trio. Bigger worlds, wilder challenges, and Rare's unmistakable humor make this sequel an adventure worth getting lost in!
The Isle o' Hags is bursting with secrets, and every new ability opens another path to explore! Venture through Mayahem Temple, Glitter Gulch Mine, Witchyworld, and other imaginative locations, each overflowing with hidden Jiggies, unusual characters, and brain-teasing challenges. Learn powerful moves from Sergeant Jamjars, separate Banjo and Kazooie to tackle character-specific obstacles, and take control of Mumbo Jumbo to work his mysterious magic. With interconnected worlds, elaborate environmental puzzles, and challenges that span multiple locations, this Nintendo 64 platforming adventure rewards curious players who explore every corner.
Just when you think you've seen everything, Rare throws another wonderfully ridiculous surprise your way! Transform into everything from a mighty T-Rex to a washing machine with Humba Wumba's help, unleash Kazooie's egg-shooting arsenal, and confront enormous bosses with their own unforgettable personalities. Even the collectible challenges have grown more ambitious, with 90 Jiggies waiting to be discovered across the adventure. Developed by Rare and published by Nintendo in 2000, this Nintendo 64 console cartridge release delivers a remarkable sequel to a platforming favorite.

Historical Trivia or Fun Fact
Banjo-Tooie arrived in North America on November 20, 2000, following more than two years of development at Rare and expanding the original Banjo-Kazooie into a far larger, interconnected adventure. One of its most intriguing mysteries involved Stop 'N' Swop, an ambitious plan to unlock hidden content by exchanging data between Nintendo 64 cartridges; the original cartridge-swapping feature was abandoned because of hardware compatibility concerns, although mysterious eggs and an Ice Key remained part of the sequel. Composer Grant Kirkhope returned with an expanded soundtrack featuring dynamic musical transitions, while Rare managed to fit the entire adventure onto a cartridge without requiring the Nintendo 64 Expansion Pak. The intended Stop 'N' Swop connection was eventually revived in the Xbox Live Arcade versions, giving longtime fans a long-awaited answer to one of the Nintendo 64 era's most famous gaming mysteries.
