1. Tropical Freeze is the origin of Gorilla Glacier, (which was absent in the Returns)
2. Cranky Kong is apparently still young enough to join DK on the adventure and isn't AS cranky/ irritable as Country
3. DK didn't know how to swim in Returns, he finally learns in Tropical Freeze, and he of course is still able to do so in Country
4. DK, Diddy, and Dixie all look younger

This is the alternative theory to the "DKCR is the next generation of Kongs". Where DK in Country is now Cranky in Returns/Tropical Freeze.

At the time this is written, all we know of him is a silhouette. We can't make out his colors or all of his details, but what we can make out include scaly skin (odd for a walrus, and the other walrus Snowmads don't have it) and a body shape remarkably similar to K. Rool. Now, his head looks a lot like a walrus head, but this is K. Rool I'm talking about, lover of the PaperThinDisguise...

DKC2 was the first game to feature Dixie, who returns as a playable character in this game. Most of DKC2 was spent on Crocodile Isle, not DK Island; a lot of pre-game hype has been stressing that the Kongs are venturing off of DK Island in this game. DKC2 is famous for its atmospheric level design. The new camera angles seem to be invoking similar sentiment. In DKC2, the Kremlings and other enemies were pirate-themed. This game features HornyVikings, another nautical baddie type.

Since DKCR had so many throwbacks to the original Donkey Kong Country like remixes of certain DKC music and such, we'll see similar aspects here. We'll probably get several remixes of DKC2 songs like "Mining Melancholy" and "Stickerbrush Symphony" as well as a full Lost World-style hidden level this time around like in DKC2, instead of the one-stage Golden Temple of the first DKCR.

He'll return as the aquatic equivalent to Rambi as with the original DKC games. OxygenMeter won't apply since the Kongs will transform into him as opposed to riding him.
