DKC Tropical Freeze Lead Designer back at Retro Studios

DKC Tropical Freeze Lead Designer back at Retro Studios

One of Retro Studios‘ big talents returned to give the company a well deserved creative boost it seems. As apparently, DKC Tropical Freeze Lead, Stephen Dupree is back!

Revealed thanks to an update on Dupree’s LinkedIn account, which now shows that he had rejoined Retro as of September 2019.

What did he do in between?

For the past two years before that, Dupree had departed Retro to work with Playful Corp. instead – where he worked on New Super Lucky’s Tale for Nintendo Switch.

On which I want to add he and the team over at Playful did a stellar job, just take a look;

Yeah it’s magical isn’t it?

But what is Dupree working on now?

For now, it’s not clear what Dupree is working on with Retro Studios – be it Metroid Prime 4, the Donkey Kong series, or something else altogether. 

What do you hope he is involved in?
