Tuesday 11-28-17: Ports for A Hat in Time, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, and Yooka-Laylee

I think I made the “Tuesday News Day” joke last week, so I should probably refrain from that this week. Today’s news is all port based, weirdly enough.

  • A Hat in Time comes to consoles
  • PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Mobile Version
  • Yooka-Laylee coming to the Switch

A Hat in Time on Consoles
The adorable platformer released not long ago on PC and Mac. During this time it received amazing reviews. Developers Gears for Breakfast have announced that it will soon be releasing on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, specifically on December 4 (that’s about a week away). The game will cost $30. You can see the trailer announcing this HERE.

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Mobile Version
You heard(read?) right! A big name Chinese game publisher who has been in workings with developers Bluehole about a Chinese version of the game have recently announced that China will also be getting a mobile phone version of the game. No details have been given, or even if this version will come to the States. Stay tuned for more on that.

Yooka-Laylee coming to the Switch
This spiritual successor to the Banjo-Kazooie games announced a while back that they would be coming to Switch in the future. That future is about 3 weeks from now, on December 14. The game generated some controversy when popular YouTuber, JonTron, was originally a voice actor for the game. Until he made some racist remarks online and had his lines later patched out. The game had mixed reviews overall, unfortunately, and now that the hype of release has died down, I doubt the Switch version will do much better. Regardless you can get Yooka-Laylee for Nintendo Switch on December 14 for $39.99.


So many port announcements. December will be a repetitive month. Thanks for reading everyone. Be sure to check back tomorrow for the latest and greatest in video game news. Otherwise, have a great night!
