-Donkey Kong is playable in all five released ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' games. Donkey Kong is always, as expected from a heavyweight, one of the strongest characters in the games. When he picks up a character, he also has the power to carry them a short distance, which is something that none of the other characters can do. He can also carry large objects, such as [[barrel]]s and [[crate]]s, without having his speed hindered.

-Donkey Kong's special moves are [[Giant Punch]], a punch that can be charged to increase its power, [[Headbutt]], which has him headbutt his opponents into the ground, [[Spinning Kong]], which spins him and lets him momentarily float, and [[Hand Slap]], which has him repeatedly stamp on the ground. For his [[Final Smash]], he used [[Konga Beat]], pulling out two [[Bongo]]s and tapping them in time to the beat of ''Donkey Kong Country''{{'}}s first level, with each tap sending shockwaves that deal damage to opponents.

 Donkey Kong is unique from other heavyweights; though he is unsurprisingly strong, he is also fast for a character of his weight. His combination of power, speed, and good range from his size and long arms contributes to making him arguably a versatile character to use throughout the ''Smash'' games.

His Classic Mode is titled "Journey to [[New Donk City]]". Donkey Kong's down tilt is officially nicknamed the Slouch Slap.

 Owing to [[King K. Rool]]'s ties to Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong appears alongside Diddy Kong in K. Rool's debut trailer for ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''. Specifically, Donkey Kong lounges lazily in his tree house after eating some bananas, only to be startled by quakes before looking outside with Diddy to investigate. They then see an ominous and familiar shadow, only for it to be revealed to be [[King Dedede]] wearing a cape and King K. Rool's mask, to their surprise. King Dedede then proceeds to laugh at the practical joke he played on them, only for him to be smacked upside the head and knocked away by the actual King K. Rool, much to Donkey and Diddy Kong's horror, with King K. Rool roaring. In the ending of the trailer, Donkey Kong is knocked backwards, only to proceed to charge at his nemesis on all fours, with King K. Rool doing the same in kind before proceeding to have their fists make contact with each other with enough force as to cause a shockwave to be emitted throughout the jungle.
