Fans hoping to purchase a boxed copy of Yooka-Laylee received good news yesterday. In the most recent behind the scenes Playtonic Labour Updates, the developers addressed their plans for releasing their game at retail. “Do we have plans for a boxed release? Today we can confirm that the answer is, yes! We’re delighted to be able to offer Yooka-Laylee in both digital and boxed flavours in time for the game’s launch in Q1 2017.”

Playtonic also stated that their “business badgers are busily burrowing away on an initiative that will allow Kickstarter backers to upgrade their digital pledge to a physical version, if they choose to do so.” Playtonic had no further details to share at this time.
