Looks like there's a new Super Monkey Ball coming
In fruition.
Sega's much-missed Super Monkey Ball series looks set for a return, thanks to a leaked (and now deleted) game listing.
Gematsu reported on a listing for a game titled "Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania" briefly being visible via the Australian Classification Board. The page now returns an error.
Hopes for a new Super Monkey Ball game have been high since 2019's re-release of Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. A remake of the series' so-so Wii entry, it marked Sega's return to the franchise after a break of more than five years.
At the time, Sega said it was hopeful that Banana Blitz HD's success could spark an all-new entry if all went well. So, fingers crossed. It's not Super Monkey Ball: Monkey Target the game, but it sounds like something.
