In ''Banjo-Kazooie'', Extra Lives appear in every level, including [[Spiral Mountain]] and [[Gruntilda's Lair]] hub worlds, and there are a total of 49 Extra Lives. Each level features either two or three Extra Lives, although in the final level, [[Click Clock Wood]], the Extra Lives are relocated based on the current season. Extra Lives most often appear in well-hidden or hard-to-reach areas. When Banjo and Kazooie obtain an Extra Life, it is added to their [[health bar]], where a number represents their current number of lives. If Banjo and Kazooie exit then later re-enter a level, the Extra Lives return to their original locations, if the duo have obtained any.

By default, Banjo and Kazooie start out with four extra lives. Their current number of extra lives is displayed from the health bar, next to an icon of their heads. The counter is only represented by one-digit numbers, therefore only counting up to ten. However, Banjo and Kazooie can exceed this number and obtain ten or more extra lives; if they lose a life, the game internally subtracts from their total number of lives, and the counter remains at ten. If Banjo and Kazooie lose their tenth extra life, the lives counter goes down to nine, and so forth. If the player resets the game, Banjo and Kazooie's lives are reset back to four.

In subsequent ''[[Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' titles, starting with ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'', the lives system was removed. To reflect this change, the lives counter was removed from the health bar.

In ''[[Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts]]'', a massive Extra Life statue appears as a Jinjo Fetch item in Act 6 of [[LOGBOX 720]], where it belongs to a [[Jinjo#Yellow|Yellow Jinjo]]. The Extra Life statue retains its physique, although it was changed to be twice Banjo's height, and the bottom trophy base was removed.
 
The Extra Life statue is on a ledge in the console's upper portion, which Banjo can only reach by using a plane vehicle. After returning the Extra Life, Banjo and Kazooie are rewarded with a [[Jinjo Token]].

In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', on the [[Spiral Mountain]] stage, an Extra Life can be found on top of [[Banjo's House]] and behind the waterfall, just like in the original ''Banjo-Kazooie''.
