Playtonic removes JonTron's voicework from Yooka-Laylee after controversial comments

Coming from Playtonic...

"We recently became aware of comments made by voice artist JonTron after development on Yooka-Laylee had been completed. JonTron is a talented video presenter who we were initially, two years ago, happy to include as a voice contributor in our game. However, in light of his recent personal viewpoints we have made the decision to remove JonTron's inclusion in the game via a forthcoming content update. We would like to make absolutely clear that we do not endorse or support JonTron's personal viewpoints and that, as an external fan contributor, he does not represent Playtonic in any capacity. Playtonic is a studio that celebrates diversity in all forms and strives to make games that everyone can enjoy. As such, we deeply regret any implied association that could make players feel anything but 100% comfortable in our game worlds, or distract from the incredible goodwill and love shown by our fans and Kickstarter backers."

JonTron recently caught a lot of media attention for a number of controversial comments. We're not really looking to get into that stuff here on GoNintendo, but a quick Google search should fill you in on the matter.

UPDATE - JonTron has responded...
