Barrel Cannons appear in every game of the ''Donkey Kong Country'' series to date. In these games, if a [[Kong]] goes into the barrel, it will either stay still (as is the case with barrels marked with arrows), move horizontally or vertically, or spin around (also referred to as '''Spin Barrels'''; these sorts of barrels have no markings on them).<ref>M. Arakawa. ''Donkey Kong Country'' Player's Guide. {{Media link|DKC Guide 20-21.jpg|Page 20}}.</ref> The player can usually blast out the Kongs by pressing the jump button. Barrel Cannons often appear in groups, which often includes their auto-fire variant, the [[Blast Barrel]]; an example of this is in the ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' level [[Barrel Cannon Canyon]], where Barrel Cannons are prominently featured for crossing wide pitfalls throughout. | Barrel Cannons appear in every game of the ''Donkey Kong Country'' series to date.

Blasting from a Barrel Cannon often requires timing, as the player must take various things into account, including obstacles, enemies, or sometimes even other moving Barrel Cannons. This is to avoid crashing into an enemy or obstacle or falling down a long pit. | Blasting from a Barrel Cannon often requires timing, as the player must take various things into account, including obstacles, enemies, or sometimes even other moving Barrel Cannons.

Barrel Cannons come in many varieties in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' games, especially in ''Donkey Kong Country'', ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', and ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' These include [[Arrow Barrel]]s, Blast Barrels, [[Tracker Barrel]]s, [[Spinner Barrel|Rotatable Barrel]]s, [[Steerable Barrel]]s, and [[Booster Barrel]]s. In ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]'', ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'', and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]], Barrel Cannons only come in four varieties: regular Barrel Cannons, Blast Barrels, and skull versions of both, which destroy themselves when they fire the Kongs. In ''Tropical Freeze'', Barrel Cannons gain a more rugged appearance, having chipped or faded paint in many places. | Barrel Cannons come in many varieties in the ''Donkey Kong Country'' games, especially in ''Donkey Kong Country'', ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', and ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' These include [[Arrow Barrel]]s, Blast Barrels, [[Tracker Barrel]]s, [[Spinner Barrel|Rotatable Barrel]]s, [[Steerable Barrel]]s, and [[Booster Barrel]]s.
