It would appear as though Spyro 4 is in active development at 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 published by Canadian Guy Eh and summarised by Reset Era member Nicoreese. Spyro 4 has apparently been in active development since January of this year and is the studios first new independent game. Here’s the details:
- He had many private talks with people in the industry over the last few months and always heard whispers about Spyro 4
- On March 20 he flew to Boston for PAX East and had conversations with a lot of developers
- Some of the developers he talked to also heard stuff about Spyro 4 and one person in particular heard things that matched up with what he heard before
- On Saturday an article by Jez said that Toys For Bob had worked out a deal with Microsoft to work on their first new independent game that is “similar to their previous games”, which was a quote by Xbox’s Matt Booty.
- Canadian Guy Eh heard about this before the article dropped.
- After the article he talked to these people at PAX again and now that the article was out, one of those people confirmed to him that Spyro 4 is in active development since January 2024.
