Toys for Bob's departure from Activision in 2024, facilitated by Microsoft's $69 billion acquisition, marked a strategic escape to regain creative control. This move allowed the studio to announce its passion project, Spyro: A Realm Beyond. After years of being occasionally diverted to support blockbuster IPs like Call of Duty, the studio is back to its roots.
Toys for Bob, developers of the successful Spyro: Reignited Trilogy, have achieved independence from Activision after a corporate mandate shifted their focus to supporting Call of Duty: Warzone. Following Microsoft's 2024 layoffs, the studio secured a buyout, described as "many mini miracles" by studio head Paul Yan. Now, they're developing a new, original Spyro game.
