Without jumping to conclusions, circumstantial evidence is accumulating to suggest a game starring Capital B as the main playable character. Didn’t Capital B say at the end of the game “I was only following orders!”? So maybe Yooka and Laylee have to team up with Capital B to defeat an even bigger ...

Playtonic has been tweeting about bees recently, and then these honey combs show up on the Team17 logo alongside references to a new game... And notice the subtle use of yellow Switch controllers in the photo for the competition held last week. Why not green/purple? Yellow controllers are quite unus...

As for the middle of the year announcement, I think Team 17 might be announcing a Yooka-Laylee 2 very soon, according to their latest news post ( https://www.team17.com/two-new-team17-games-to-be-announced-next-week/hell-let-loose/ . Here are a few choice quotes from that article: I HOPE you're rig...

I don't want to let anyone down, but I'm pretty sure it's common practice for staff to sign an internal NDA. This would mean Daley and most of the other devs would have signed a Playtonic NDA just as standard procedure, having nothing to do with any third party franchise. Alternatively, Team 17 is t...

If I could "like" Gorjo's post above, I totally would. Brilliant explanation -- I wish Piet would stop trying to spread his negativity around this community.

We know Playtonic is working on a second game Do we? Yep, it's been known for a long time now. I'm actually surprised we haven't seen anything from it yet because the first hints at a secret project were well over a year ago. Grant even said he had finished his contribution to the project. Music us...

the Kickstarter goals can/should be a bit less rigid than some fans might like, provided the reason for not meeting them is good enough. I actually agree, but you're underestimating the ferocious toxicity some of the community have regarding this issue. I think Playtonic want to stick to their stre...

I think this is very unlikely. We know Playtonic is working on a second game, which might be sequel to Yooka-Laylee, but the DLC is definitely separate to that project. The upcoming DLC is going to be free to all backers. It would be a disaster for a business to spend 2+ years on a full game just to...

I'm curious about all the beta stuff as well, but it's not exactly common practice to release works in progress to the public. Da Vinci never published drafts of the Mona Lisa before he finished the painting... not many people would like you to look at the first drafts of their finished product.

Always interesting to find out what goes on behind the scenes!

My ears perked up when Gavin was talking about what they'd do differently next time.

New trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=boAnuuJa2ZY Okay, so I've known about this game for a long time, but never took it seriously before watching this trailer. I have to give the developers props -- it actually looks pretty good! They nailed the nostalgic factor, and parts of that trailer l...

Were there any scrapped ideas for this world that you really liked, but ultimately couldn't include for whatever reason?

I know it's not strictly birthday related (unless you count it as late 20 year anniversary merch?), but I didn't want to create a new topic just for this - is anyone else excited for the Banjo-Kazooie Totaku figurine? https://www.mytotaku.com/Files/FigureImages/28_Banjo-Kazooie-20181015131457039.pn...

(Cheeky quote to notify the Community Manager) . Hey, Daley, reckon you could try and find out about this 'Penny' for us? Consider it a Community Manager challenge! Bonus quests: 1. Why is 'Evie' and 'Erin' graffiti'd onto the ship? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Df-nmSfV4AAj-SE.jpg 2. Why is 'G50' on ...

This is such an awesome post by the way! Lots of stuff I didn't know about, or had simply forgotten about. The Dr Quack statue confused me when I first saw it as it's identical to the one underneath Capital B's golden statue, right? So why is there a second one? I thought it might have been some sor...

I was too late to order my copy from Limited Run (and didn't really want to wait for the expected delivery time anyway), so I just downloaded Yooka on Switch a few days ago instead. I would have liked the physical version, but I won't pick it up now that I've gone ahead with the download. I am, howe...

This image was posted by Playtonic last year, after Yooka's release. The central character looks a bit like Schell , but the silhouette is different. Could this be a tease for the next game that nobody realised, maybe a character from Schell's universe? https://images-ext-1.discordapp.net/external/1...

(New post to avoid a million edits to my last post) https://i.imgur.com/cYqUhO5.png Kev Bayliss, character artist at Playtonic, put up this tweet just now. That wink is definitely implying something here! I'm pretty convinced Game #2 will be a kart racer, considering this tweet, all the speculation ...
