The game includes several vehicles such as a Motor Boat and Hovercraft which can be used to traverse the overworld. The game overworld is also more complex, allowing players to explore between each area instead of forcing them along a linear path. For instance, in one level, Riverside Race, players are followed by a swarm of bees which can instantly kill them and must race to the end of the level against the clock. The level design is more diverse compared to its predecessors, with more complex puzzles and obstacles.

They are based around several returning themes including Forests, Cliff-sides, Factories and Mountain tops, and a host of new themes, such as a pier and inside a mill.

Levels in Donkey Kong Country 3 include a mixture of straight platforming, swimming and on-rails levels. The Kongs can also throw each other around levels to break cracked floors, hit switches or reach secret areas.

Both of the two playable Kongs have unique abilities, such as Dixie's ability to slow her descent by spinning her pony-tail, and Kiddy's ability to bounce across open water. Many of the gameplay elements from previous games in the series see a return in this game, such as barrels, animal helpers and co-operative play. Donkey Kong Country 3 is a platform game where players control Dixie Kong and her cousin Kiddy Kong through 48 brand new levels.
