Today, during the new Nintendo Direct presentation, Nintendo gave some new information about Yoshi’s Woolly World. The game will have two separate game mode (you can switch from the two at any times):

– Classic Mode;
– Mellow Mode: for beginners, giving players a winged Yoshi.

Nintendo also confirmed that the game would be compatible with amiibo: it’s even getting three figures (Green / Blue / Pink Yarn Yoshi). By scanning one of those, you can get a partner Yoshi in the game, that will help you in the various levels.

Here’s the North American boxart, the European boxart, and the packaging for the European amiibo bundle:
