Yoshi’s Wooly World Announced for 2015, Embodies Kirby’s Epic Yarn

Nintendo announced a new title for the Wii U with Yoshi’s Wooly World, a platformer that employs an art-style similar to Kirby’s Epic Yarn and uses some pretty cool gameplay elements in the process. Check it out above.

Wooly World sees the entire world including Yoshi being made of wool. This allows for new gameplay elements. The eggs you shoot can now take on different properties for different purposes such as tying up enemies. You can even team up with another player for different opportunities. It’s certainly unconventional and embodies that same cutesy tone that previous games are known for.

Yoshi’s Wooly World will be available in 2015 for the Wii U. What are your thoughts on the game along with the art style being so similar to Kirby’s Epic Yarn?
