I can still remember the first day the original Yooka-Laylee Kickstarter went live, setting the chameleon-bat duo up for a 3D platformer revival. Now look at them, celebrating a first anniversary of a 2D side scroller. Playtonic knows how to revisit their roots, as you can see in our Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair review.
In honor of its first “bee-day”, a new comic has been shared featuring familiar characters and a sweet surprise from a not so sweet guy right at the end.
We're celebrating Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair turning a year old on Thursday!
As a special treat, we're releasing the pages of a specially made comic by our very own @Kev_Bayliss!

Also announced on the Playtonic website is a steep discount on the game, marking it down by 60% on the eShop until October 11th. If you haven’t jumped into this second showing from the pair, now’s a great time to celebrate and save.

When he isn’t writing for Nintendo Wire, Ricky’s anticipating the next Kirby, Fire Emblem, or if the stars ever align, Mother 3 to be released. Till then he’ll have the warm comfort of Super Smash Bros. to keep him going.
