The studio says the reason for the delay was to help give fans the kind of product they expect. “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,” said creative director and MD of Platonic, Gavin Price. “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.”
Yooka-Laylee stars the buddy duo Yooka and Layee, who use an arsenal of special moves to explore and expand 3D worlds filled with collectibles to find, secrets to unlock, and characters to meet.
To help fans cope with Yooka-Laylee’s delay, Playtonic has released the game’s official E3 2016 trailer, which is the first time we’ve seen actual gameplay of the title.
Check out the Trailer:
“While Yooka-Laylee won’t be arriving on schedule, it’s E3 2016 trailer has been made available ahead of the June 14, 2016 event. In the almost two minute trailer, we get to see in-game footage of Yooka and Laylee going through levels and interacting with NPCs.”
