The swords and traps drawn on the walls might be the cutest touch in this stage.
Our IGN First coverage of Yoshi’s Crafted World continues with another new stage reveal from Nintendo’s upcoming platformer. Here, Nintendo Treehouse developer Lindsey Newman joins us as our co-op companion – and coach, as she offers a number of expert gameplay strategies along the way – as we make our way through ‘The Shogun’s Castle’ and take on the mini-boss at the end. And then we play the “flip side” of the stage, trying to speedrun through it while finding all three Poochy puppies!
IGN First is our monthly, purely editorially driven initiative where we take a deeper dive into the games we’re most excited about. We’ll have more stages to reveal and costumes to show off in Yoshi’s Crafted World both next week and all month long, leading up to our review and its release later this month. And if you enjoy the video above, feel free to also check out our first new stage reveal from last week, which showcased the ‘Weighing Acorns’ stage.
