Good-Feel confirmed as developer of Yoshi and the Mysterious Book
Just days ahead of its launch, Good-Feel has been confirmed as the developer behind Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, the new entry in the Yoshi series arriving on Nintendo Switch 2 on May 21.
The news closes a long-standing line of fan speculation and places the title squarely within Good-Feel’s decade-long relationship with Nintendo and the Yoshi franchise.
Paraphrased confirmation and credits
Fans had already suspected Good-Feel was behind the project based on the studio’s recent work, and the game’s credits now make that role explicit.
Nintendo has not issued a separate corporate announcement highlighting the developer, so interested players can verify the credit directly in the game.
Composer Kumi Tanioka has publicly confirmed her involvement in the soundtrack; Tanioka’s career includes work on Final Fantasy XI, the Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles series, contributions to Mario Sports Mix, arrangements for Super Smash Bros., and Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity.
Developer pedigree and platform details
Good-Feel’s association with Yoshi is well established: the studio developed Yoshi’s Woolly World (Wii U, later ported to Nintendo Switch) and Yoshi’s Crafted World (Nintendo Switch).
Beyond Yoshi titles, Good-Feel’s portfolio includes Wario Land: Shake It!, Kirby’s Epic Yarn, and the more recent Princess Peach: Showtime, demonstrating a strong history of platform and family-friendly projects for Nintendo hardware.
Release and availability
Yoshi and the Mysterious Book launches on Thursday, May 21 for Nintendo Switch 2, with digital availability through the Nintendo eShop.
Players looking for early impressions can consult contemporary review roundups and watch selected opening sequences released ahead of launch, including a sequence featuring Bowser Jr.
