LogInCreative Director Dan Neil shared details on their relationship with Activision.
The Creative Director of Toys For Bob, Dan Neil, shared that Activision plans to continue investing in the studio and the Crash Bandicoot series. Previously, the team worked on re-releasing the classic trilogy and a full-fledged fourth installment, and on June 20, they launched their new multiplayer spin-off Crash Team Rumble.
Neil noted that Activision values the versatility of Toys For Bob, which can not only make platformers but also provide support for other titles – Call of Duty, for example. The developer shared they learned a lot working on Warzone and they used the experience on Crash Team Rumble. Neil thinks there's no need to worry about the franchise's future, but he didn't share any plans for the next Crash platformer yet.
“Obviously, there’s a passion and a core ethos of games that Toys For Bob have demonstrated that they’re excellent at producing over the decades. But it’s not only about what we’re passionate about, it’s that Activision is supportive and they continue to want to invest in new titles for this franchise. They also have a belief that we can do exciting new things,” said Neil.
Crash Team Rumble was launched on PS5, PS4, Xbox One, and Xbox Series. You can find the full interview here. Don't forget to join our 80 Level Talent platform and our Telegram channel, follow us on Instagram and Twitter, where we share breakdowns, the latest news, awesome artworks, and more.
