Yooka-Laylee Gameplay Footage

Announced by Playtonic Games (Tuesday, February 10, 2015)! The spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie! Will come to all platforms, including Wii U. Release: October 2016 (Worldwide).

More Info​


What they're calling Project Ukulele is a spiritual successor to Banjo-Kazooie being developed by Playtonic Games
They're a bunch of Ex-Rare developers.
They're making this game for PC, and have said it's possible they could work with Nintendo to have this game in the Wii U.
If it's any good, I'd love to see it on the Wii U.
I missed out in Banjo-Kazooie myself, so hopefully it would be similar.
They've been bringing in several more Ex-Rare people lately, so it's looking good right now.
 
Yeah, they just brought in Wise, Kirkhope, and Burke for the soundtracks.

Banjo-Kazooe back in the day were great games. I loved the platforming and collecting objects, like notes and jiggies. Hopefully they can make a deal with Nintendo to have this game on the Wii U.

Luma Party, you definitely missed out back then. Those Banjo games were stellar titles to play.

I'm hoping Nintendo finally goes through with putting N64 games on Wii U Virtual Console.
They released the original Banjo Kazooie on the Wii VC, so hopefully I could finally get a chance to play it.

No, they never released Banjo-Kazooie for the Wii Virtual Console. Banjo-Kazooie was a game made by Rare, and Microsoft owns Rare. Rare owns the Banjo-Kazooie IP. Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie will never be released for the Virtual Console as long as Rare owns the IP, which Microsoft owns the company, as well.

I could swear they did...
Either  that or it was DKC they released and they talked about Banjo Kazooie possibly releasing.
 
Playtonic will be presenting info about Project Ukulele at EGX Rezzed.

Not exactly sure what "Rezzed" is but at least they're presenting something.


Here's some concept art from the EDGE Issue they were featured in.

Neither have I, but everyone I know who has played it, loves the game.

Here is an interview with Playtonic from the Guardian.
It talks about Rare, minor Project Ukulele characters getting their own games, etc.


Also, that concept art from the EDGE issue, I found a single version of the concept world.

All they said this time was:
"Burly Minion grasps Monday with both hands and attacks the week. No negative sentiment, just optimism. Also, SMASH."

Thanks Luma. Maybe I'll actually get this game when it ever comes out....just to try it but idk if I'll like it yet :p
 
I've never been a fan of adventure games. I mean, I've played Borderlands 2 for about 2 hours, played GTA single player for a few hours,  played Super Mario 64 but got bored of it pretty fast. I've played Obilivion, got bored of that. Played Morrowind, gave up in 10 minutes... The only games that I've really beaten that are adventure are the Spyro games.

This looks pretty good though. I'm interested to see the reception of the game once it comes out.

As for the kickstarter, that'll get funded, easily.
