Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is not so impossible anymore

Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is not so impossible anymore

Team17 and Playtonic announced last week that Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair is getting a hefty new update that, among other things, would make the impossible lair, slightly more possible and the good news is that the update is out now.

The Impossible Lair now has two new ways of trying to get through it, the first is that it is now the Impassable Lair, as there are no 'Bee Shields', no checkpoints, though the “Golden Try” tonic can now be earned through this version of the Lair, without the need to restart the save.

For those seeking a more passable challenge, you can try The Not So Impossible Lair. In it each section of the Lair now ends with a checkpoint. Checkpoints save your best “bee shield” score. You can select which checkpoint you start from, and your highest bee shield score will always be saved. E.g., you previously cleared a section with 10 bees remaining. You select the checkpoint and clear it with 12 bees remaining. Your bee progress stays saved, so you have more bees for later sections. 

Finally, for something fun and different, the game now offers 8-bit tunes of the soundtrack, thanks to the work of Tatertottunes. This option can be found in the menu.
