Yooka-Laylee Update Lets You Speed Up Dialogue - Full Patch Notes
Playtonic Games is preparing to roll out a hefty update for Yooka-Laylee this month. The patch will deal with many problems players have been complaining about. The main draw for many will be the option to shorten the gibberish dialogue, as well as the ability to speed through it and skip cutscenes.
Yooka-Laylee is getting a pretty hefty update this month. It will be addressing a bunch of stuff that the players have issues with. One thing that will certainly make a lot of people happy is the option to shorten the gibberish voice sounds. You finally won’t have to suffer through all the annoying noise.
The exact date when it goes live is still unknown, but we do know that it will come out on PC first and then consoles a little later. You can check out the patch notes below. However, you should keep in mind that there are no bug fixes in the list, because the devs will release those at a later date.
