How to Unlock
To obtain the Bananarang, players must locate a **hidden banana** in any tier of the Forest map.
- The banana spawn is random, but most often appears during Forest Stage 1 runs.
- Once found, the weapon becomes permanently available.
- After discovery, it must be purchased from the Unlocks tab for 1 Silver.
- Unlocking Bananarang is also mandatory to free and unlock Monke.
