Nintendo is slowly expanding its Nintendo 64 collection as Banjo-Kazooie is set to release tomorrow January 20^th for Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack subscribers.

As announced on the Nintendo’s official YouTube channel, the classic platforming action-adventure game makes its way back to Nintendo consoles for the first time since its original release on the Nintendo 64 in 1998. In the game, you play as Banjo the bear and Kazooie the bird and journey throughout Spiral Mountain to save Banjo’s sister Tooty who is kidnapped by Gruntilda the Witch so that she can steal Tooty’s beauty.

Banjo-Kazooie comes as a part of Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack. The original Switch Online service came with games from the NES and SNES systems. The Expansion Pack, on the other hands, adds Nintendo 64 and Sega Genesis games for a premium. When released, this will be just the second Nintendo 64 title (10^th overall) released for the service after the original Paper Mario.
