We're Playtonic Games. Our game Yooka-Laylee is out on Nintendo Switch Dec 14! Ask us anything

Hello!

We're Playtonic Games and our colourful 3D platformer, Yooka-Laylee releases for Nintendo Switch tomorrow, December 14! (Screens and more info: https://www.playtonicgames.com/yooka-laylee-leaps-onto-nintendo-switch-dec-14/)

Yooka-Laylee is an open-world platformer from key creative talent behind the Banjo-Kazooie and Donkey Kong Country games. There are lots of collectibles, crazy characters and bowel noises to enjoy.

The Playtonic team has spent many, many months optimising Yooka-Laylee for Nintendo Switch (with technical help and support from Nintendo and Unity themselves!) and we believe we’re delivering a version Nintendo fans can be proud of.

Players can expect a quality experience both on and away from the television and on top of that, Switch players will benefit from the huge list of updates we’ve added since launch such as a brand new camera mode, control improvements, menu options, music… and a lot more!

Most of the team has stayed behind for this AMA, including the golden oldies and tech geniuses. So please, ask away...



The lizard and bat are back in YookaLaylee and the #mpossibleLair; a brand new PlaytonicGames adventure that combines 2D platforming and 3D exploration! Coming to NintendoSwitch, googly eyes and all, in 2019.

Playtonic Games is Rebranding sometime in 2021

Playtonic Games sent an email to Yooka-Laylee backers earlier this month:

“We’re ssssliding into your inbox to deliver a backers-first update and insight into the future. Disclaimer: we’re not announcing any of the cool gamesss yet, but many great things will happen over the coming weeks, months, years, and we think you’ll be pleasantly surprised,” said Playtonic Games in a recent statement. “One of the things we’re doing is a rebrand… exciting hey?”

“Let us know if you want slides and graphs too, but there is a good reason for us doing so, my dear Playtonic friends. All will be revealed soon! It’s still a secret, so keep it mum. And that’s not all! A new team member has joined us at the helm of our social media and community channels, please give a warm welcome to Tegan!”

Xbox Insider Klobrille states that a purchase from Microsoft is unlikely because Playtonic received a loan from Iwoca Skye Finance Ltd in December.

Daley Johnson of Playtonic Games states that the rebranding has nothing to do with Banjo-Kazooie.

What would you guys wanna see? A conker successor? Tooka-laylee and yooka laythree? An original ip that will hopefully sell even though it doesn't play on nostalgia of old games they used to work on?
