The studio behind Crash Bandicoot 4 is going independent
Toys for Bob, developer of Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, is separating from Activision to operate independently.
In the latest game news, we learned that Toys for Bob studio, the developer of Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, will separate from Activision to continue its activities independently. After the recent retrenchment of the Activision Blizzard company, some fans thought that the Toys for Bob studio would be closed forever, but this studio surprised everyone with the news of its independence.
Toys for Bob Studio will become independent, but this probably does not mean a complete termination of cooperation with Activision Blizzard; Therefore, there is a possibility of their cooperation and the development of a new version of the Crash Bandicoot or Spyro series by this studio in the future.
We are proud to announce that Toys for Bob will become an independent studio. Over the years we have brought love, joy and laughter to the child in gamers. We were the founders of new IPs and technologies for the Skylanders series. We improved the quality level of remasters in Spyro Reignited Trilogy .
We brought Kirsh Bendicott collection to new levels of success in terms of innovation and attracting critics. We believe that now we should go with the same enthusiasm to achieve more success for the studio and future games.
This position allows us to return to our roots and operate as a smaller and more agile studio. To make this news more exciting, we have to inform you that we are investigating a possible collaboration with Microsoft. While we're still in the early days of developing a new game and far from making any announcements, we're excited to create new stories, characters, and gameplay experiences.
Our friends at Activision and Microsoft strongly supported our decision to make the studio independent, and we are confident that we will continue our close cooperation in the future; So stay tuned for more news. Thank you to the fan community for always supporting us along the way. We look forward to sharing more details about our adventure as an independent studio!”
It seemed that the Activision company intended to turn this developer into an auxiliary studio for making the Call of Duty series of games; Therefore, Toys for Bob could no longer make other games. Mentioning the game series Crash Bandicoot and Spyro in the statement of this studio could mean making a new version of these works in the future.
