Yooka-Laylee Trailer Debuts at E3 As Game Delayed

Attendees at E3 have been getting a first playable look at Yooka-Laylee. The game is a much anticipated spiritual successor to Banjo Kazooie and features the brand-new titular duo. The game was tentatively expected by the end of the year, but Playtonic has confirmed that it will slip a little to the first quarter of 2017.

“After a lot of soul searching and knowing through dialogue with our fans that they value quality and polish above all, we’ve made the difficult decision to lock the release of Yooka-Laylee to Q1 2017. While we felt confident we could ship the game in October as originally planned, the team has decided that it would like to add a few extra months’ polish to our schedule. Ultimately, this will allow us to release a better game to the thousands of fans who’ve supported us throughout development” said Gavin Price, Creative Director and MD of Playtonic. “We’re sure some will be disappointed by the prospect of a few extra months’ wait, however the Playtonic team is confident that we’ve made the right decision for the game and that you’ll be pleased with the results when the game arrives early next year.”
