When Microsoft announced that 1,900 people from its games division, mainly Activision Blizzard, were to lose their jobs, Toys for Bob (Skylanders, Crash Bandicoot: Nsane Trilogy) was among the hardest hit. There were even rumors that the studio might shut down for good after they closed their office.
Fortunately, that didn’t happen, and now the Crash/Spyro Youtuber has Canadian Guy Eh told us more about the fate of Toys for Bob. It turns out that they shrunk quite a bit, going from 86 to 50 people. That they closed the office was planned in connection with the lease ending for an old airport hangar, which was far too big for them, and they wanted an external solution instead. It is also claimed that the studio has projects underway, and that they may end up growing again, for “Microsoft is dedicated to Toys for Bob and their IP, so don’t worry”.
Although this is not confirmed information, Canadian Guy Eh is considered a serious channel, and hopefully this means that we will get more colorful adventures from Toys for Bob in the future. May we suggest that they take a look at a certain and very rare bear and bird duo that gamers often request, now that they are part of Microsoft…?
