Nintendo may have slipped up the other day and let us all know the name of Yoshi's upcoming Switch adventure ahead of today's Nintendo Direct broadcast, but now it's officially confirmed that Yoshi’s Crafted World is the final title.
In the game, you play as an adorable Yoshi travelling through a world crafted from household items like boxes and paper cups in this new Nintendo Switch platforming adventure.
After travelling through a stage, players can start at the goal and journey back to the start on the “flip side,” the rear side of the course, to discover new secrets.
Yoshi’s Crafted World launches on Nintendo Switch in spring 2019. Let us know if you plan to pick this up next year with a comment below.

Playing the levels backwards looks like a fun mechanic/gimmick.
Look forward to this at least. One of the only highlights form this direct.
I was pleasantly surprised by this game, Woolly World was fun, but this is just so much more visually appealing with the craft aesthetic
I'd rather hit my pinky toe in adamantium furniture than play this game.
This looks so much better now and I actually have interest in it. Is it no longer the Woolly World Yoshi? My wifi is pretty poor and can't tell from the quality
Looks nice. If it’s as good as woolly world I’m in but I think at some point Yoshi games need to change it up a bit more.
The art direction and overall setting is just delightful... I'm actually looking forward to this title. Albeit, my experience with Yoshi games unfortunately resulted in rotten fruit. Uh, Yoshi's Story. Still, that does nothing to mar my anticipation for this beauty.
@FireMario887 Unless I'm wrong, The Yoshi series has only ever had two legitimately good games (Yoshi's Island SNES and Wooly World). The rest were a mixed bag from what I've seen online.
@ImagineerNik Looked to be more like papercraft.
I’ll wait for reviews but I thought this looked sumptuous
Looks like it'll have as much replay value as Kirby Star Allies...
I was hoping the little damn eggs would at least hop and not float like they’re in space. Very visually appealing. Although I really dislike how “kiddie” Yoshi has gotten. Looking forward to it though. Wooly World while slightly kiddie, had a great difficulty level so I’m pumped.
Was going to pass on this since Amazon doesn't do the Prime 20% discount anymore but it turns out I already pre-ordered it.
I wonder if Spring means their big March game of their big end of May game? Probably end of May, so many games coming out on Switch I lost track of the release calendar too.
Good Feel are cuteness wizards.

Tell me about it. It's become the one stop shop, hall of fame hardware with all the best games released over the last 10 years, playable as console, handheld and portable console, along with plenty new games releasing in steady cadence.
Gosh dang I love this system.
We just got Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion 3, a total of 9, NINE different Final Fantasy games, NSMBU and NSLU, Civilization VI (the game I literally got a PC for just to play), Katamari Reroll which looks crazy, we still have Diablo 3, Dark Souls, Dragonball Fighter Z, Mario Party, Pokémon, Smash Bros, Xenoblade 2 Torna, The World Ends With You, Valkyria Chronicles 4, Valkyria Chronicles, Team Sonic Racing, Mega Man 11, Disgaea 1, Fairy Fencer F was just announced for Switch, Pillars of Eternity 2, My Hero One's Justice, Tales of Vesperia, Daemon X Machina, Fire Emblem, No More Heroes, Yoshi's Crafted World, Trials Rising, Starlink with Fox and Wolf (basically the Star Fox game I've always wanted), Ark Survival Evolved and PixArk, Warframe, Arena of Valor, Dragon Quest Builders 2 and XI, at some point Bayonetta 3, Metroid Prime 4 and SMTV...
And still no Pikmin 4 🤔
And the indies, my goodness. I think every week that goes by I get another three top notch, best of the best indie games, or more announced.. Bastion and Transistor, Hyper Light Drifter, Undertale, The Messenger, Flinthook, Dead Cells, Hollow Knight, Overcooked 2, Shovel Knight new campaign #47 (lost track of names)... it's got so many good indies you could buy a Switch just for those and it'd be worth it.
This looked really good to me. Must buy!
Wooly World was awesome, can't wait for this.
Really looking forward to this!
This is looking great! Looks better than e3 last year. A worthy successor to Woolly World indeed!
Looks frickin great! Those visuals are tasty and the gameplay looks fun
THIS GAME LOOKS SO FREAKING WONDERFUL NOW OH MY GOSH I NEED IT. ;-;
Needs online multiplayer.
This is 2018. Switch Online. Get it together already.
I'm still buying it, but my 2 family members who I play online with will definitely pass without online gameplay. Every time Nintendo releases a multiplayer game without online they loses 2 sales from my family. Every time.
@JaxonH "And still no Pikmin 4"
You're funny. My son who turns 16 next Monday, still think Hey Pikmin was Pikmin 4. Hard to argue at thsi point. Course I've been arguing that since they announced Hey Pikmin.
Great ND. Still wondering how good it would have been last week before half of it got announced but whatever.
"t some point Bayonetta 3, Metroid Prime 4 and SMTV..."
And the single player "Spirits" or whatever in SSBU. A new Subspace Emissary almost makes up for no Pikmin 4. Almost. MAybe even more so if it's good enough, I played so much Subspace EMiisaary I don't think I ever even battled.
Family is waiting, gotta go, catch ya later.
So much to talk about #Nintendominate
Should be named 'Yoshi's LABO World'. It's all based on cardboard, unlike Wii U's yarn generation, Switch's generation is all cardboard theme. I bet there will be some LABO gimmick tied into this game.
And I thought Woolly World looked amazing.
Looks like the game got a pretty decent visual upgrade. Looking forward to it.
Well it’s about flipping time!
It's finally on the calendar, woohoo!
In June 2017, Amazon put up a whole bunch of placeholders for Switch titles. I put Super Mario Odyssey, Yoshi, and Metroid Prime 4 in my cart. Each one for only $59.96CDN! It's sad that I'm happy about that, because $79.99 is ridiculous, but it's just icing on the cake to finally see that order get a proper listing.
Sorry, but as I said previously Yoshi's Crafty Country would have been a better title
Of all the first party announcements in this direct this was the only one that grabbed my attention. I'm not a big platformer fan but I have a soft spot for Yoshi and this does look genuinely interesting. The flip mechanic reminds me a lot of Super Paper Mario and the art style is beautifully crafted. Name is a bit clunky but nothing was ever going to sound good after Yoshi's Flipping World.
@Nincompoop Is that so Yoshi can't blame not having something to write on for not turning in his Tax Returns this year?
@Arpie What's tax return? A british cardboard?
@Nincompoop I thought it was an American thing, every year they have to send of their tax returns to their version of HMRC. In the UK we get taxed directly as we earn so there is no need for a similar system. My admittedly poor joke was all about this meme https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/yoshi-committed-tax-fraud
@Arpie Yoshi is a Nintendo Royalty, he doesn't need to pay tax. Tax was invented for poor working class people (rich people/company never pay tax, that's why the rich gets richer and poor gets poorer).
I just know that I want the game. It looks so pretty and cute.
Is it just me or does every new Kirby and Yoshi game kind of seem the same? Visually and play mechanics. I'm not super interested about this despite enjoying the last Yoshi game.
Yoshi's Labo World.
The game looks great, but it should already have been out. They are stalling!
