Playtonic Vows Yooka Replaylee Will Release In 2025

Playtonic Vows Yooka-Replaylee Will Release In 2025

Last summer Playtonic Games promised we’d get to replay Yooka-Laylee as Yooka-Replaylee, but they didn’t reveal when. Now, with the arrival of a new video, Playtonic has stated they plan to get the revamped 3D adventure out the door and into your living quarters by the end of this year. They swear!

To pull that off, they’ve announced a partnership with PM Studios, who will serve as co-publisher. “Yooka-Laylee was always our love letter to the golden age of platformers, and Yooka-Replaylee is a love letter to that love letter. PM Studios innately understands this,” says Playtonic CEO Gavin Price. “They’re a perfect partner for Playtonic Friends as we enter this next stage of our journey with the game.”

Playtonic released a new gameplay video today showing off all the work they’ve done. While at first there seems to be nothing new here beyond a fresh coat of 4K paint, we did meet a new character named Coineleus — a yellow ghost who is also a pig. Seems that wherever you find Coineleus, you’ll be able to play new stages of pure platforming skill that will allow you to amass major coinage you can spend through Vendi.

  • MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN EVER – With an art and animations overhaul and enhanced performance and resolution, the favourite 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 WORLD – Now you can get lost in the game, not in the world! A brand-new world map and challenges tracker helps you know where you are and what needs to be done. Hooray!
  • VENDI HAS PLENTY TO OFFER – Tonics are back with all new flavours! With the option to equip multiple game-changing enhancements, you can truly customize your playstyle. And as if that wasn’t enough, Vendi has new lines of merchandise for the modern fashionable adventurer.
  • REVISED CONTROLS & CAMERA – A new tweaked move set allows you to combine moves more fluidly while the new camera controls makes framing the action a breeze.
  • A DREAMY ORCHESTRAL SOUNDTRACK – The original score from famed video game composers Grant Kirkhope (Banjo-Kazooie) and David Wise (Donkey Kong Country) returns but as a beautifully arranged orchestral score. Now seriously, clean out those ears.

Yooka-Replaylee will be released later this year for Playstation 5, Xbox Series X/S, PC, and “Nintendo platforms” (take that to mean what you will).

The Best Hit – A Typhoon Hit and I Ended Up in the Future!

“The Best Hit” (aka “Hit the Top”) is a 2017 Korean drama series with 32 episodes (about 35 minutes each), categorized as Time Travel, Youth, Idol Drama, Fantasy, Supernatural, and Comedy; and streaming on Viki and KOCOWA+.

Bro! IT’S REALLY ME!!

In “The Best Hit”, the year is 1993, and K-pop was in its early stages, and the music genre was beginning to gain traction. Yoo Hyun-jae was making his mark as a pop star and then … one day … he vanished. Nobody knew what to think. Did he die? Did he run away? There’s no trace of him. He had a pager but he can’t be reached. A pager? Uuhhh … yeah. It’s 1993. Or rather … it was 1993.

Fast forward to 2017. Wait! How did I get here? Let’s try to backtrack.

Star Trek

IDW Announces Three New Star Trek Comics

Publisher IDW, who’s held the Star Trek license for some time now, plans to exercise it further with three new limited series titles. Coming in 2025 are Red Shirts, Strange New Worlds: Seeds Of Destruction, and Voyager: Homecoming.

Red Shirts is what it sounds like. You ever wonder about those extras that appear for a scene or two on a mission with Kirk and Spock and then get blasted or incinerated or crushed? What were their lives like prior to those incidents? Did they really deserve it? Follow their lives…but try not to get attached to them. The book will be written by Eisner-nominated writer Christopher Cantwell and illustrated by artist Megan Levens.

“We will get to know these ensigns and lieutenants intimately before they are likewise crushed, disrupter’d, and sucked into space,” promises Cantwell. “Who will survive? Will any? And what is the true nature of their planetside mission to hunt down mysterious spies? This is a major melody Original Series-era story in the key of Death, one I’ve wanted to tell for years, equal parts fun and harrowing, subversive and celebratory of the boldest tunic color one can wear in Starfleet—security red.”

Following the first issue of Red Shirts, Star Trek: Strange New Worlds: Seeds Of Salvation will begin its five-issue run. The all-new story will follow Chapel, Una, La’An, Spock and a new robot sidekick named D6 as they explore an ice-covered planet and uncover its dangerous secrets. Robbie Thompson, writer for season four of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, is scripting this one, and artist Travis Mercer is bringing it to life.

“I’ve been a fan of Travis Mercer’s storytelling from afar, and it’s been a blast working with him and the rest of the team,” says Thompson. “We’re taking the SNW crew to one of the scariest and coldest corners of the universe, and I can’t wait for TREK fans everywhere to see the cosmic horrors we’ve cooked up!”

Finally there’s Star Trek Voyager: Homecoming, a five-issue series that reveals what happened right after the final episode cut to black after its brief shot of Earth. “What if just moments after that, there was one last emergency for the determined Captain Janeway and her brave crew?” IDW asks. Is the Earth in trouble? Or is the emergency in deep space? Don’t get lost again, guys. This tale comes from the minds of Tilly and Susan Bridges and artist Angel Hernandez.

“We can’t wait to give Janeway and crew one last adventure… will everything go smoothly? Well, this is Voyager… who’s to say (we are, but we’re not gonna spoil it, where’s the fun in that?). We all spent seven years getting to know and love this crew, and it’s an absolute honor to be part of the team that brings them home.” Tilly and Susan say.

The first issue of Red Shirts will beam into comic shops this July. Strange New Worlds: Seeds Of Salvation will begin its run one month later in August, and Star Trek Voyager: Homecoming will follow in September.

wild blue

Wild Blue Is Coming To Steam

Tired of waiting around for Nintendo to release another Star Fox? So are we. That’s why it’s excellent news Giles Goddard, the programmer who worked for Nintendo on the original Star Fox, has founded his own development studio, Chuhai Labs…and you’ll be thrilled with what they’re making. Wild Blue — a spiritual sequel to Star Fox with everything but the official name! If we were flying jets right now, we’d all be doing barrel rolls.

You are Bowie Stray, canine leader of the sky fighting team known as the Blue Bombers, on a mission to lock target and fire on the forces of the evil Baron. The setting is on Earth (or an anthropomorphic equivalent), not in space, but that doesn’t mean the environments won’t get exotic…oceans, deserts and cave stages are mentioned. This game will be totally on rails with no unnecessary side missions or ground levels — just like Papa Goddard used to make.

“The easy-to-learn controls make Wild Blue accessible to both newcomers and genre veterans alike, while the stunning, hand-crafted anime-style visuals fully immerse you in its world,” says Chuhai. “Featuring a compelling gameplay loop, branching paths, and thrilling missions, every flight is an adventure!”

  • Experience all the classic on-rails shooter action with new and modernized controls.

  • Discover a rich and colorful world with stunning vistas at every turn.

  • Fly through an action-packed campaign alongside a stalwart squad of allies.

  • Take on exciting boss battles and dogfights against a mysterious rival squad.

  • Discover secret paths and missions on your quest to take down the evil Baron.

  • Become an ace pilot and master every mission through a simple and challenging score system.

There’s no release window for Wild Blue as of yet, but you can wishlist it on Steam and keep watch for further developments.
