If you were one of those waiting patiently to get your hands on a copy of Yooka-Laylee, the sequel (of sorts) to Banjo-Kazooie, you will have to wait a bit longer.

“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. Ultimately, this will allow us to release a better game to the thousands of fans who’ve supported us throughout development. “We’re sure some will be disappointed by the prospect of a few extra months’ wait, however the Playtonic team is confident that we’ve made the right decision for the game and that you’ll be pleased with the results when the game arrives early next year.”

Developer Playtonic goes on to say that the delay has to do with making certain the gameplay across different platforms is equally enjoyable.
