PAX West 2017 Impressions: Yoku’s Island Express

I’d like to thank Team17 for letting me visit their booth at PAX West 2017 and take a look at Yoku’s Island Express.

Yoku’s Island Express is platformer like you’ve never seen before! Have you ever felt like you love pinball, but hate the static nature of playing the same thing over and over again? Yoku’s plans to change that by mixing pinball and traditional side-scrolling platforming together. Using classic pinball mechanics, players will bounce and break their way through puzzles.

Players will be able to relive all the pinball glory in new form when this one releases on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, PS4, and PC in 2018.

I was born and raised in a town so small there were more cows than people. I joined the USAF as soon as I could, and I currently reside in San Antonio. I am a singer/songwriter on the side, but I've been a gamer since birth. I grew up with PlayStation and Nintendo, though, I don't discriminate between consoles and PC. I have a PC with a 3080, Steam Deck, and a PS5.
