Yooka-Replaylee (Yooka-Laylee remaster) — Release details

Yooka-Replaylee, a remade and enhanced version of Yooka-Laylee, launches on October 9, 2025 for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch 2. Both digital and physical editions are confirmed.

Platforms & Release

Release date: October 9, 2025
Platforms: PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2
Editions: Digital and physical

Editions & Pricing

Digital price: $29.99
Physical price: $49.99
Preorders for physical copies are live from multiple retailers (check links below).

Switch 2 cartridge: full game included

Importantly for collectors: the Nintendo Switch 2 physical edition is a full cartridge that contains the complete game and does not use Nintendo’s “game-key card” system (empty cartridge + mandatory download). This makes the physical Switch 2 release particularly appealing to collectors.

Upgrade discount

Owners of the original Yooka-Laylee can receive a 30% discount on the remaster when purchasing on the same platform family as the original (e.g., Switch → Switch 2, PS4 → PS5, Xbox One → Xbox Series X/S).

What’s new in the remaster

The remaster adds updated challenges, an orchestral soundtrack, a larger map, a refined story, improved graphics and performance, and extra collectibles while keeping the collectathon spirit of the original (influenced by Banjo-Kazooie and other Rare-era platformers).
