Check out the Yooka-Laylee E3 Trailer
Playtonic Games has just unveiled the Yooka-Laylee E3 trailer and revealed it will showcase the game for the first time at E3 2016, from June 14th to 16th in Los Angeles. We knew that, but we weren’t allowed to tell you we knew that! They also announced today that Yooka-Laylee now has a firm release window of Q1 2017 on PC and consoles.
Developed by Playtonic and published by Team17, Yooka-Laylee stars the charismatic new buddy duo Yooka and Laylee, who use an arsenal of special moves to explore – and expand – gorgeous 3D worlds filled with collectibles to discover, secrets to unlock and a cast of quirky characters to meet (or defeat).
Gavin Price, Creative Director and MD of Playtonic had this to say about the game, the release window and the trailer;
We are really excited to release today the E3 trailer for Yooka-Laylee and confirm our presence in Los Angeles where we will showcase the game for the first time to the media and influencers, saidÂ
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.
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.
COGconnected will be seeing Yooka-Laylee at the big show this year so keep it locked here for all our hands-on impressions.
