It looks like Spyro 4 is in active development at the talented development studio, Toys for Bob. The news comes from Crash Bandicoot and Spyro mega fan, Canadian Guy Eh. The information was shared in a recent video posted by Canadian Guy Eh and summarized Reset Era member of Nicoreese. Spyro 4 has apparently been in active development since January of this year and is the studio’s first new independent game. Here are the details:
- He’s had many private conversations with people in the industry over the past few months and has always heard whispers about Spyro 4
- On March 20th, he flew to Boston for PAX East and talked to a lot of developers
- Some of the developers he talked to also heard things about Spyro 4, and one person in particular heard things that matched what he had heard before
- Jez’s article on Saturday said that Toys For Bob had inked a deal with Microsoft to work on their first new independent game that was “similar to their previous games,” which was a quote from Xbox’s Matt Booty.
- Canadian Guy Eh heard about this before the article dropped.
- After the article, he spoke to those people again at PAX and now that the article is out, one of those people has confirmed to him that Spyro 4 is in active development as of January 2024.
