Crash Bandicoot 4 and Spyro Reignited Trilogy developer Toys for Bob has formally confirmed that it’s going to associate with Xbox for its subsequent sport.
In a message on X (previously Twitter), Toys for Bob says Xbox will publish its subsequent venture, which is “nonetheless very early in growth”. As such, it is perhaps some time earlier than we hear something farther from the studio.
The developer does, nevertheless, say that it is “so sooo impressed about” the sport, and that it may well’t wait to share extra. Sadly, it would not appear like extra can be coming in subsequent month’s Xbox showcase, at any fee.
Rumors first started to swirl that Toys for Bob would group up with Xbox for its subsequent sport again in March, however right this moment’s announcement represents the primary official affirmation that the partnership goes forward.
Some would possibly take into account the team-up somewhat unusual contemplating that Toys for Bob turned unbiased from Microsoft in February, however a studio going indie does not imply it may well’t group up with its former homeowners, in any case.
Moreover, given the weird studio closure spree on which Microsoft embarked not too long ago, Toys for Bob is arguably in the most effective place in the case of working with Microsoft and the Xbox model.
Proper now, we’re unsure whether or not Toys for Bob’s sport can be Xbox-exclusive. Teaming up with Xbox as a writer would appear to suggest exclusivity, however in any case, a few of Xbox’s video games can be found on different methods.
With none additional details about Toys for Bob’s new venture to go on, we are able to solely speculate about what it is perhaps, however many will little doubt be hoping for a brand new Crash Bandicoot or Spyro the Dragon sport.
A partnership with Xbox may properly present some gas for that fireplace; in any case, these franchises are technically Microsoft-owned due to the Activision Blizzard merger.
Nonetheless, we’ll simply have to attend and see what Toys for Bob has on the playing cards. Keep tuned for extra.
