Yooka-Laylee, the spiritual successor to the extremely beloved Banjo-Kazooie, has successfully funded on Kickstarter many days before the campaign was to end. 45 days before the aspired 270K USD goal the campaign has already received pledges of 1,691,879 Dollars. Check out the full Kickstarter page here and pledge if you want to get a copy of the game, given that it actually gets completed – you know, it’s Kickstarted after all.
The game is being developed by Playtonic Games which includes talent from the original Banjo-Kazooie team. Watch the Kickstarter campaign below.
YOOKA-LAYLEE (previously ‘Project Ukulele’) will be released in 2016 and star the charismatic new heroes Yooka and Laylee. Using an arsenal of special moves like Yooka’s tongue grapple and Laylee’s sonar blast, players will explore – and expand – gorgeous 3D worlds filled with collectibles and secrets to discover.
The highly-anticipated project will feature worlds crafted by the artists behind the genre’s most beloved classics, plus a dream soundtrack created in collaboration with legendary composers David Wise (Donkey Kong Country series), Steve Burke (Kameo: Elements of Power) and Grant Kirkhope (Banjo-Kazooie series).
