Honestly, the addition of Rextro's Arcade and that new collectible currency has me way more hyped than I expected. Between the visual polish and those legendary composers, this feels like the version that'll finally win over the skeptics.
It's awesome to see Playtonic taking player feedback to heart and giving this gem the glow-up it deserves. With Kirkhope and Wise on the soundtrack, this is shaping up to be the definitive way to experience Yooka-Laylee's charm.
