Yooka-Laylee , the Banjo-Kazooie spiritual successor developed by former Rare developers, is getting a surprise remaster for PC and consoles. Developer Playtonic Games said the 2017 3D platformer will re-release with a visual overhaul, new controls, and camera system, as well as new challenges and secrets. The game also has a new name: Yooka-Replaylee.
Yooka-Laylee released on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in April 2017, with a Nintendo Switch version following in December 2017. IGN’s Yooka-Laylee review returned a 7/10. We said: “Yooka-Laylee is a good reminder that this genre, once thought to be dead, still has some life left in it.
” Yooka-Replaylee is the result of the growth of Playtonic over recent years, it said, and “the things we have learned while working on other projects as well as the feedback we have taken on board since the original release.” Here are the Yooka-Replaylee key features, per Playtonic: • MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN EVER – With an art and animations overhaul and enhanced performance and resolution, the favorite buddy duo has never looked or moved better. • NEW AND IMPROVED CHALLENGES – Improvements to existing in-game challenges and many entirely new challenges to discover and undertake! • NEW COLLECTIBLE CURRENCY – Capital B's inept minions have dropped their hard-earned coins all over the place.
Collect the official currency of the Hivory Towers to spend on video games' most beloved sentient vending machine. • NAVIGATING THE WORL.
