These minions of Gaw must be dealt with, and you will use various combos and unleash your rage to heighten the impact of your attacks. You can even send enemies fleeing with your earth-shattering roar and use brutal finishing attacks.

Throughout the game, you will gain new abilities through special events and boss fights that unlock Kong's full potential. Collectibles can be earned by exploring the mountains, jungles, swamps, caves, and more. Exploration will also unlock new areas, during which time you will learn more about the the island.
