Yooka-Laylee gets release date and debut trailer

6 June 2016

Upcoming platformer Yooka-Laylee has received its first official trailer and a definite release period.

Yooka-Laylee is a love letter to classic platformer-adventure games, from a team of veterans responsible for some of the genre’s most iconic games.

 

You can expect huge, beautiful worlds to explore, quirky characters to meet (and beat) and a vault-load of shiny collectibles to horde along the way.

 

Oh, and a whole load of word puns.

Yooka-Laylee is being developed by Playtonic games, a newly-formed studio featuring the creative talent behind genre classics Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong Country.

The game will release on PS4, PC, OS X, Linux, Wii U and Xbox One some time in Q1 2017.
