The Japanese release date for Yoshi’s Woolly World has leaked out ahead of today’s Nintendo Direct, which will begin in just a short while.

According to Amazon Japan, it’ll launch on July 16. Amazon actually lists July 15, though that’s for the downloadable version. The eShop edition of Nintendo’s games tend to arrive a couple of hours before midnight of a game’s release. That means we can assume that the “true” launch is slated for July 15.

Check out the Japanese Yoshi’s Woolly World boxart above, and screenshots below.

This month’s issue of EDGE has a short interview with the developers behind Yoshi’s Woolly World. The magazine spoke with Nintendo producer Takashi Tezuka as well as executive producer Etsunobu Ebisu from Good-Feel. Given the unique style featured in Yoshi’s Woolly World, the discussion focused on the game’s visuals.

Tezuka first spoke about Yoshi’s Woolly World’s art style in general:

We’ve always felt that Yoshi deserves to have a handcrafted feel to the graphics, and we’ve strived to bring this into games like Yoshi’s Island and Yoshi’s Story. With those previous titles, it was just that – an aesthetic – and didn’t really have much influence on the gameplay itself.

Tezuka also specifically explained the decision to use wool in the title, and how the graphics impact the gameplay:

– Yoshi takes damage as you’d expect him to
– Recover health by collecting hearts that are like the jumping star collectables from previous Yoshi games
– Yoshi’s tongue is the main method of taking down enemies
– Yoshi unravels them and turns them into balls of wool
– Use eggs to bind larger enemies made of materials other than wool, create warp pipes, boxes, platforms, and many other parts of the world to help Yoshi achieve his goal

– Doing so reveals secret passageways or hidden items
– The game has dozens of hidden items

– Beads are used as a generic currency and can be used to buy special badges that can assist you in a level

– Transformations happen a few times in each world
– They task you with reaching a goal within a certain time limit, or face having to restart it all again
