Playtonic Celebrates 10th Anniversary Announcing Shovel Knight Joining Yooka-Replaylee

2025 marks Playtonic Games’ 10th anniversary, and they have some delightful surprises planned for gamers. One of these surprises will be incorporated into the platformer game remaster Yooka-Replaylee, which initially launched with “refreshed challenges reimagined,” an interactive map, a “sparkling new currency,” and numerous customization possibilities for gaming’s beloved duo – the favorite pair.

Regarding the upcoming surprise, it’s going to be a gleaming character resembling a platformer icon, who will be joining forces with Yooka and Laylee in an assistive role. However, the exact arrival date of this radiant knight, also known as the legendary shiny knight, is yet to be disclosed by Playtonic. For now, players can add Yooka-Replaylee to their Wishlist on consoles and PC, as it is currently not yet released.

As a gaming enthusiast, I can’t help but feel the excitement bubbling within me! The question on everyone’s lips is whether he’s back or not, and let me tell you, I’ve got a feeling it’s a resounding YES! 💥✨

Shovel Knight, that timeless character from Yacht Club Games, will be gracing the screens in Yooka-Replaylee, and it seems he’ll be sporting a shinier, more challenging look than ever before! 🏆🌟
