Although there are lots of games about shooting, driving and sports, the open world platform game is hard to come by. Parents who grew up with Mario 64 and Banjo-Kazooie will therefore be excited to here about a new open world platform game Yooka-Laylee.

If it looks familiar that's for good reason. The developers come from working on games at Rare like Banjo-Kazooie although this new game is being created by developer Playtonic. If you are looking for a fun family game that you can enjoy together Yooka-Laylee is one to keep tabs on.
