Doubt they'll even make a Crash or Spyro game.

They own Toys for Bob now so yeah sure. Vicarious Visions would do fine as well.

Kind of interesting how XBox basically owns a character from each of their rivals now.

Silly thing to get mad over though.

I'd rather Vicarious Visions do it than Toys for Bob. Was definitely disappointed in Crash 4.

Sony didn't even put Crash in their smash bros clone. Microsoft is absolutely a better home for the franchise at this point.

I'm sure Activision wanted to play hard ball, but there's a point where Sony needed to pony up real cash to make the game happen if they really wanted it to compete with SSB and it's pretty clear they went the "budget" route which is why so many of their most notable mascots are missing.

I think if they learned from the feedback that we don't need 100% completion to take 80-100 hours (which might be logic from Activision to give the game more value for $60) they'd do great. Game Pass eases some pressure to let them simply make an old school Crash game again.

If Banjo Kazooie is any indication of their future Microsoft will probably just whore him out to Smash Bros. and nothing else at all.

A major difference is that Rare doesn't want to make Banjo.

Pretty sure Toys for Bob and Vicarious Visions wanted to make platformers. Activision was the problem.

Psychonauts 2 was only multiplat because it started development as a crowdfunded game and already had PS4 set as a platform.

That will probably be the last we see of Crash before the franchise is killed off by Microsoft.

Wouldn't mind seeing them make a Banjo game. Even if it's just a remaster like they are known to make.

I'd be surprised if we didn't see Crash from them tbh. Phil Spencer has said they want more family content for Game Pass.

Game Pass needs to be broadly appealing to everyone. It's a different ball game than just releasing a $60 game. Even Netflix often has Cocomelon in the charts.

Not gonna lie, Crash 4 was an incredibly unfun game to play. I don't even think I managed to finish it. There was some serious bs you have to go through in the last world.

What the hell are people mad about?

Activision basically threw Crash in the garbage can by having Toys for Bob relegated to working on Call of Duty. If anything this is great news since Microsoft might have plans for Crash.

Activision definitely had another Crash game in the pipeline but it probably isn't what people actually want.

Apparently it's called Wumpa League and is some sort of multiplayer game. It might have been delayed or cancelled so that studio could help with COD.
