Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble brings in all-new looks for the returning monkeys, an all-new 16-player Battle Mode, local/online multiplayer, a new Spin Dash ability, more guest characters as DLC (including Knuckles, Amy, and Axel), and an extensive storyline.
This marks the first completely new mainline entry in the series since Super Monkey Ball Banana Splitz, released back in 2012, as well as the first game in the series to deliver dedicated post-launch support via continued content updates. As a result, there's quite a bit of content that cannot be seen in-game just yet. Most of it is content that will certainly be added at a later date, and thus will not be documented. The rest is either unused content or leftover content from previous games like Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania and Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD.

Unused Battle Mode Items
Text strings pertaining to multiple unused Battle Mode items can be found in the battleroyale_itemtype_text_en asset bundle. Some of these items have thumbnails attached to them, found in the ui_icon_batl_itemicon bundles among the other sprites in the game.
Unused Sounds
Announcer Voice Lines
There are a number of voice lines from the in-game announcer that did not end up getting used in the final game. Among these are name calls for all of the characters that appeared in Banana Mania.
AiAi! | |
MeeMee! | |
Baby! | |
GonGon! | |
YanYan! | |
Doctor! | |
Sonic! | |
Tails! |
Curiously, Sonic & Tails have completely new takes from the Banana Rumble announcer, but other characters from Banana Mania that aren't currently present in-game did not have new takes recorded for their lines. These characters instead had their announcer calls carried over from Banana Mania.
Jam! | |
Jet! | |
Kazuma Kiryu! | |
Beat! |
While these characters are currently not present in-game, Beat was confirmed to be returning to Banana Rumble prior to its release as part of the SEGA Pass. The fate of the other three characters is currently unknown, and their announcer calls will likely remain as carryovers.
Clear! | |
Danger! | |
Good! | |
Moon Team! | |
Success! | |
Sun Team! | |
Super Goal! | |
You Lose! | |
You Win! |
Miscellaneous unused voice lines from the new announcer. Alongside these, there are many leftover voice lines from the previous announcers from Banana Mania and Banana Blitz HD scattered throughout.
Unused Music

Multiplayer/Lobby Tutorial Stage Names
Banana Rumble has several stages in an internally labeled "11th world". This world BG is used for the stages that appear in the tutorial at the beginning of the game, as well as the Battle Mode lobby stage. By checking the stage_text_en bundle or hacking the game to play these stages in Adventure Mode, it's revealed that these stages actually have names, despite the player never being able to access these stages outside of their intended uses.
Stage Name | Stage Description |
---|---|
Coconut Promenade | The first tutorial stage, where the player chases Palette and learns the game's basic controls. |
Woods Steps | The second tutorial stage, where the player is taught to use Spin Dash to cross a gap. |
Arch Park | The third tutorial stage, where the player can optionally test their camera preset by walking into different Wormholes. |
w11_004 | The Battle Mode waiting lobby. |
course_category_text_en
A text file containing strings for the titles of the game's various game mode types. Notably, there is a Test string, and one for Challenge Mode, a returning main game mode from previous Super Monkey Ball games.

PC-Specific Options
Various strings for absent Options settings are present in option_kind_element_item_quality_text and option_kind_element_item_screenmode_text. These could be either hints at the game potentially being ported to PC at a later date, or leftover development strings.
