The folks over at Playtonic Games have unleashed several announcements for the Yooka-Laylee series of games, including an important update for Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The first announcement regards Impossible Lair’s erm… impossible lair, with a new update allowing players to dial down the difficulty if they’re struggling to overcome its mighty challenge. By adding a ‘State Change’ to the lair, you can now flip the switch and choose how you want to tackle the stage. Here’s how each option works:<\/p>\n

\n

Not So Impossible Lair
<\/strong>Each section now ends with a Checkpoint (Checkmates, technically). Checkpoints save your best \u201cBee Shield score\u201d, meaning you can choose which sections to start from, practice and improve on! Using these checkpoints is entirely optional.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\n

Impossible Lair
<\/strong>No Bee Shield, no Checkpoints! The \u201cGolden Try\u201d Tonic can now be earned this way \u2013 no new save file required.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

A second update for the game, coming on 14th April, sees an entire 8-bit soundtrack included within the game itself. You’ll be able to access it in the pause menu, but you’ll also be able to stream it on Spotify and Apple Music.<\/p>\n

Finally, Playtonic has also revealed that from the 9th – 19th April, if you own the original Yooka-Laylee on Switch, you can purchase Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair<\/a> at 50% off. Nice.<\/p>\n

Liking the sound of these new additions? The Impossible Lair really is<\/em> a challenge, so having the option to make it just a touch easier sounds very welcome to us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
