Story

According to Rare, there is no story to the game, although it can be assumed that Cheato the Magical Spellbook lost all of his pages and Banjo and his friends must retrieve them by completing race courses. As Grunty is still in her original form it can also be assumed this is the first game in the series, apart from possibly Diddy Kong Racing.

Game Modes

Grand Prix

In this mode, the first player races against other characters in a series of tracks to earn points. There are four cups that each contain four tracks with an aerial boss fight at the end. The player is given a trophy determined on his/her rank. Different Grand Prixes include the Bottles GP, the Grunty GP, the Endurance GP, and the Jinjo GP.

Quickrace

In this mode, the player can do a quick single race with any character he/she has already unlocked. The player can choose tracks from the Bottles and Gruntilda Grand Prixes.

Time Trial

In this mode, the player races against the ghost of either Bottles or Gruntilda to try and beat their best time.

Trophies

Here, the player can view the trophies that he/she won throughout the game. There is also a photo album when the player completes all of the game's challenges.

Jiggy Challenge

In this mode, the player collects six jiggies on tracks from the Bottles and Grunty Grand Prixes while trying to finish in first place. If they succeed, they can unlock Bottles, the most efficient racer in the game.

Cheato

Here, Cheato pages are used to purchase unlockables within' the game.

Multiplayer

Head-To-Head

It's a multiplayer quickrace, wiht four player together in the same track.

Dogfight

Like a cup boss battle. Player can beat the opponent using weapons.

Items

When the player hits a Honeycomb, they receive an item. Items include:

  • Golden Feather: Grants the player temporary invincibility and boosted speed.
  • Mumbo's Head: Despite his name, it its a Mingy Jongo-like head that temporarily disables all other racers.
  • Turbo Trainers: Gives the player a short speed boost.
  • Saucer of Peril: Targets in on the race leader and causes them to crash.
  • Fire Egg: Homes in on the nearest racer in front of the player and causes them to crash.
  • Ice Egg: Dropped behind your plane and causes any plane that hits it to crash.

Music

Banjo-Pilot music was composed by one of Rare well know compositor, Robin Beanland and Jamie Hughes. Acording to Rare, as the game first title was Diddy Kong Pilot the game's music track are based on Donkey Kong Country soundtrack.

Cameos

Many characters from Rare's previous games make minor cameos in Banjo-Pilot. Characters like Tiptup, Gobi, and Master Jiggywiggy can be seen in various tracks. Sabreman, from Sabre Wulf, and Expresso, from Donkey Kong Country, appear in Jolly Roger's Lagoon and Jinxy's Dunes, respectively. Other non-playable characters include Cheato, King Jingaling, and Roysten. Before the game's release, many fans speculated that Roysten would appear as an unlockable character, but this has since been proven false.
