Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair

Playtonic and Team17 released Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair on various platforms this week, including Switch. As is tradition at this point, Digital Foundry examined the game to see how it holds up from a technical perspective.

When playing docked, Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair maintains a resolution of 1360×765. Portable mode reduces the image to 960×540. Fortunately, the platformer almost always run at 60 frames per second on Switch.

The Switch eShop has updated in Japan, and a demo for Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD has just gone live. We imagine that it will be offered in other regions soon as well, but as long as you have a Japanese Nintendo Account, you should be able to download it. Full English support is included.

Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz HD launches for Switch on October 29.
