Yooka-Laylee is the latest game to be delayed into 2017.

“We’ve made the difficult decision to lock the release of Yooka-Laylee to Q1 2017,” Playtronic’s Gavin Pearce said via press release. “While we felt confident we could ship the game in October as originally planned, the team has decided that it would like to add a few extra months’ polish to our schedule.”

An E3 trailer was also released.

Yooka-Laylee is planned for early 2017 on Windows PC, Mac, Linux, PS4, Xbox One and Wii U. Kickstarter backers are still set to receive a playable Toybox demo in July.
