SPYRO & CRASH Studio Toys for Bob Teams Up with Microsoft for Next Game

Toys for Bob, the video game studio known for developing titles like "Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time," has secured a deal with Microsoft for its next project. This move comes after the studio's shift to an independent entity last month, which freed it from the constraints of working exclusively on Call of Duty titles under Activision. Delighted by this newfound independence, Toys for Bob looks forward to creating a familiar yet unannounced gaming experience that aligns with its past portfolio, potentially suggesting a new platformer or revisiting franchises like Crash Bandicoot or Spyro the Dragon.

Although specifics haven't been revealed, it's hinted that Toys for Bob's upcoming game with Microsoft could resemble their previous work, which includes platformers and possibly series like Crash Bandicoot or Spyro.

Toys for Bob has a storied history in the video game industry, with roots tracing back to the early '90s. The studio is renowned for creating beloved platformers like "Spyro the Dragon" and reviving the "Crash Bandicoot" series with "Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time." Notably, they're also credited with the creation of the "Skylanders" franchise, a pioneer in the toys-to-life category that blended physical toys with video game play. Their partnership with Microsoft hints at a potentially exciting new chapter for the studio and its fans.
