Toys For Bob have had an interesting few weeks. Following the completion of Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision-Blizzard, the studio announced their intentions to go independent. Microsoft obliged, though are still working with Toys For Bob on their next game. According to one insider, this game is Spyro 4.
Releasing a video onto his channel, Spyro and Crash YouTuber ‘Canadian Guy Eh’ has claimed that Spyro 4 is in development and has been since January of this year.
Though the statement should be taken with a pinch of salt, the insider claims to have had multiple conversations with different developers over the months who have confirmed that a new Spyro is in the works – and that Toys For Bob are working on it.
For the uninitiated, Toys For Bob were tasked with the development of the Spyro Reignited Trilogy as well as Crash Bandicoot 4, so they’re well-versed in the mascot platformer genre.
That, alongside various teases and hints by the studio, seems to indicate that Spyro the Dragon is finally getting a brand new original entry. Hopefully it matches the quality of the PSOne trilogy.
KitGuru says: What do you think of Spyro as a franchise? Do you want to see it return? Is Toys For Bob the right studio for the job? Let us know down below.
