Yooka-Replaylee | Console Announcement Trailer!

Yooka-Replaylee seems to be the second confirmed game coming to the Nintendo Switch 2 — or whatever its name ends up being — according to some hints the developer dropped on Thursday.

Playtonic Games, which developed the original Yooka-Laylee and is working on this remaster, released a trailer announcing that the game is coming to consoles after initially only revealing the Steam page for PC.

In a press release, the studio also noted that it’s coming to “Nintendo platforms.” “Experience the definitive version of Yooka and Laylee’s very first adventure on a platform of your choice when the game launches on… wait, too soon for that,” it read.

While Nintendo hasn’t officially revealed the Switch 2 yet (although it’s acknowledged its existence), other developers have started teasing upcoming releases for the platform. For the My Time at Evershine Kickstarter, developer Pathea Games became the first to confirm the game would be coming to “next-gen Nintendo” consoles, adding that backers will receive a Switch 1 code if the Switch 2 isn’t out at the time of release. It also noted that the game is launching “on PC, Xbox Series X/S, PlayStation 5 and future Nintendo platforms yet to be announced.”

“Nintendo platforms” seems to be the adopted parlance for games that are being developed for the Switch 2, and now that we’re getting closer to an expected console
