Nintendo fans holding out for the next big Direct to finally find out the release date for Yoshi’s Crafted World got a surprise treat today when the Big N up and announced it out of nowhere.
Taking to social media as well as updating the game’s online information, Nintendo confirmed a release date of March 29th, 2019 for the much-anticipated spiritual successor to the Wii U’s Yoshi’s Woolly World.
It’s not just Yoshi getting a date either, with Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn, a 3DS port of Kirby’s Epic Yarn on the Wii, landing a date of March 8, 2019.

Kieron started gaming on the SEGA Master System, with Sonic the Hedgehog, Alex Kidd and Wonder Boy. The 20-odd years of his life since have not seen his love for platformers falter even slightly. A separate love affair, this time with JRPGs, developed soon after being introduced to Final Fantasy VIII (ie, the best in the series). Further romantic subplots soon blossomed with quirky Japanese games, the occasional flashy AAA action adventure, and an unhealthy number of indie gems. To say that Kieron lies at the center of a tangled, labyrinthine web of sexy video game love would be an understatement.
