Yoshi's Woolly World has two-player, out 2015

Knit bad.

Good-Feel's Wii U platformer starring Yoshi is called Yoshi's Woolly World and is due out next year, it's been revealed in Nintendo's E3 digital event today. It also has a two-player mode.

As we already knew, the game has the same knitted yarn aesthetic of Good-Feel's lovable Wii game, Kirby's Epic Yarn.

Gameplay seems similar to the Yoshi's Island games, with Yoshi followed by a string of balls of wool (as opposed to the usual eggs) which he can throw to defeat enemies and reveal secrets in the levels.

In the two-player co-op mode, one Yoshi can swallow and spit out the other, enabling them to reach new areas together.

Nintendo legend Takashi Tezuka appeared to introduce the game, saying "There is certainly a key phrase that I have - it's 'amazing Yoshi!'"
