Reggie appeared on the VGX 2013 Awards tonight, showing off two levels for Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. But what's even more important is that Cranky Kong was officially revealed as a playable character.
His cane can be used similarly to Mr. McDuck from DuckTales, where he can hop on it, even on dangerous platforms. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze releases February 21, 2014 in North America for $59.99.
