Yoshi’s Crafted World is releasing today and Nintendo has released the launch trailer in the nick of time to celebrate its release. The new trailer shows us a pretty decent amount of gameplay and different Yoshi’s abilities that it will be using in the new game.
The new demo shows us Yoshi’s ability to swallow enemies making Yoshi drop eggs and then using the eggs as throwables to kill other enemies on the level. This ability can also be used to unlock new hidden paths in the levels to explore more secrets in each level. You can have multiple eggs at the same time as they will follow you as you move around a level.
Apart from killing enemies and opening up paths, the eggs can also be used to activate different mechanisms which will allow Yoshi to move around each level to get more coins or simply advance in a level. The trailer also shows plenty of level switching as Yoshi flips around the level to give players a better view of levels
Check out the new launch trailer below.
Yoshi’s Crafted World may look like a 2D scroller but it actually a 3D game as level flipping shows and Yoshi will also keep moving back and forth between levels to collect items or progressing in levels. It is a very unique take on the level design which is certainly entertaining to look at.
You can also check out the earlier gameplay demo of Yoshi’s Crafted World which shows even more gameplay from the upcoming title. You can also download the free demo for Yoshi’s Crafted World from Nintendo eStore right now and try out the game before purchasing the full game. The demo will give you a small slice of what to expect from the full title.
Yoshi’s Crafted World is releasing today exclusively on Nintendo Switch.
