Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble update version 1.10 patch notes are here and come with a bundle of new content additions and fixes.
The Super Monkey Ball X/Twitter account shared the changes coming to the arcade platformer, detailing a host of tweaks that help keep the game’s post-launch support rolling. Most notably, there’s a new Race stage called Sky Highway as well as a few stability improvements across the experience. The Sega game also brings some love to Sonic, who has been given a stat boost “to better showcase his unique character traits.” The character’s ball now shows the correct blue color, too.

A few small adjustments have also been made to the terrain across the Race stages in Battle as well as the Acrobatics stage in Adventure. Players should also notice some control adjustments that should make moving your monkeys around a bit easier.
Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble launched June 25 for Nintendo Switch and brings customization options, new courses, and more to Sega’s ball-rolling franchise. Sonic is one of a few Sonic cameo characters players can enjoy as DLC, with others, like Tails, Knuckles, and, Amy, set rollout in the future. Other Sega faces, like Jet Set Radio’s Beat and Crazy Taxi’s Axel, are also on the way. They can be purchased individually or together as a bundle as part of the Sega Bundle.
