Yoshi and the Mysterious Book - is an upcoming side-scrolling platform adventure game for the Nintendo Switch 2 developed and published by Nintendo.
In the game, Yoshi enters the pages of a magical talking encyclopedia called “Mr. E” and explores colorful storybook worlds filled with strange and charming creatures. Each creature has unique abilities and behaviors that Yoshi can use to solve puzzles, discover secrets, and progress through the adventure.
The gameplay focuses on exploration, experimentation, and creature interaction rather than traditional fast-paced platforming. Players can test how creatures react to the environment, objects, and Yoshi’s actions, unlocking discoveries and new pages inside the mysterious book.
The game features a handcrafted stop-motion-inspired visual style and is scheduled for release on May 21, 2026.
