April 5, 2013

After a good eighteen month wait, the egg has hatched. Yes folks, Toki Tori 2 has finally been released on the Wii U’s eShop, and is ready to take the world by storm.

For a brief catch-up, Toki Tori 2 puts you in the role of a little yellow chick who has very little when it comes to abilities and has to use his environment around him to progress onward. As our recent review states (which you can read HERE), we pretty much fell in love with the game, and with the vibrant, open, and colorful worlds, there is a pretty good chance you will too. Until April 25th, you can get Toki Tori 2 for a discounted price by 10% (bringing the total to $13.49), so there is no better time to make the jump. Check out the new launch trailer down below.
