Yooka-Laylee has finally arrived, bringing the joy of N64 era platformers back to life. Built with the inspiration of games like Banjo-Kazooie, Yooka-Laylee is a love letter to fans of the platformers that made our childhoods so enjoyable, and Playtonic has done a good job of bringing that joy back to the living room. This guide will act as a hub for all of our Yooka-Laylee PC requirements and content, which will include collectible guides, detailed location information, and even tips and strategies to help you complete each fight, puzzle, or event.
Yooka-Laylee Quick Tips
- Collect every Quill you can. You’re going to need to purchase all of Trowzer’s powers if you want to complete the game and find every Pagie, so don’t miss out on any, and make sure you grab any Pagie you can.
- Prioritize moves for each world, and never leave a world until you’ve collected them all. You never know when you might need a power, so make sure you’re prepared by buying them all before continuing the story.
- Stumped? Can’t get past a section? Try thinking outside the box. Yooka-Laylee is built like puzzle platformers of the N64 era, which means the solutions to the problems won’t always be right there in plain sight. Alternatively, maybe you’re thinking too hard. Try something simple, as sometimes the solution is the easiest possible answer.
- Collect every Pagie you can before moving on to new worlds. Some Pagies will require moves you don’t have yet, so come back them when you get a move that feels like it should work in that situation.
- Expand before unlocking. Players can expand each of the game’s five worlds one time. We’d suggest expanding each world before you unlock new worlds, as this will keep you from getting too lost when you revisit those worlds to acquire new Pagies you couldn’t unlock before.
