Exciting news has been revealed with the announcement of Yooka-Replaylee. According to Playtonic Games, this is not just a simple remaster of Yooka-Laylee, but something much more. It’s evident that the team has a deep passion for this platformer series, as this is their latest project.
Drawing from over a decade of developer experience, Yooka-Replaylee has been crafted with player feedback in mind. The updated version boasts:
- Enhanced graphics and performance.
- Higher resolution and smoother animations.
- Revamped tasks and challenges.
- Introduction of a new in-game currency called Philosot for the vending machine “Vendy” offering useful items.
- World map and trial tracker features.
- Improved camera settings and controls.
- Orchestral soundtrack arrangement.
Yooka-Replaylee is set to launch on PC (Steam) and other consoles, with a Russian language translation in the works. While no release date has been confirmed, fans can look forward to a Q&A session with the Playtonic founders on June 11, where more details about the remaster and the studio’s future projects will be shared. Rumors suggest that the team is already working on something new.
For those unfamiliar, the original Yooka-Laylee was released in 2017 as a spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie. The sequel, Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair, followed suit. Both games follow the adventures of chameleon Yooka and bat Laylee as they strive to thwart the plans of the villain.
