A Yooka-Replaylee kinda Christmas

Looking better than ever it Yooka-Laylee, which is back in Yooka-Replaylee form. The game’s been a while in the offing, revealed last year as a remake of the 2017 original. From what we’ve seen thus far too, it’s looking sharp, with updated graphics and an orchestral soundtrack. The new version of the game also touts a bigger play map, in-game currency, and more.

Here’s a look at it in action:

Yooka-Replaylee is the ultimate, rebuilt and enhanced version of the 3D indie platforming collectathon darling, Yooka-Laylee, developed by key creative talent behind the Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong Country games. New remixed challenges and old favorites await as you embark to explore the huge, beautiful open worlds as the lovable buddy-duo Yooka and Laylee once more, all while backed by a beautiful orchestral soundtrack. Did we mention there’s an even more expansive map now? A shiny new currency? And tons of customization options? Your favorite buddy duo has never moved, looked, or sounded better!
