Team 17’s voyage back to the golden year’s of the N64 with Yooka-Laylee is going to happen on the 11th April when it releases for the PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4. Although there’s been fairly mixed reviews up to this point, with the game standing at 68% on Metacritic, a lot of the complaints were about the fixed camera and performance issues.
The good news is that there’s going to be a patch released on launch that fixes a lot of the issues that have been mentioned, which is actually already available on the Xbox One, but it won’t be available on the PC or PlayStation 4 until launch.
Here’s all the list of changes the Yooka-Laylee launch patch makes:
