Crash Bandicoot 5 aurait été abandonné

Un ancien artiste concept de Toys For Bob, Nicholas Kole, a laissé entendre sur X (anciennement Twitter) qu'un Crash Bandicoot 5 avait été annulé. Cette révélation faisait suite à une discussion sur le « Projet Dragon » abandonné de Kole, une nouvelle adresse IP qu'il développait avec Phoenix Labs. Le commentaire de Kole : "Ce n'est pas Spyro, mais un jour les gens entendront parler du Crash 5 qui n'a jamais existé et ça va briser les cœurs", a déclenché une vague de déception parmi les fans.

La nouvelle intervient après la transition de Toys For Bob vers un studio indépendant suite à sa séparation d'Activision Blizzard plus tôt cette année. Bien que le studio soit désormais partenaire de Microsoft Xbox pour de futurs projets, les détails restent rares concernant leur prochain titre.

Le dernier jeu Crash Bandicoot principal, Crash Bandicoot 4 : It's About Time, sorti en 2020, a réalisé plus de cinq millions de ventes. Les versions ultérieures comprenaient le coureur mobile Crash Bandicoot : On the Run ! et le titre multijoueur en ligne Crash Team Rumble, qui a conclu son service en direct en mars 2023.

L'avenir de Crash Bandicoot 5 reste incertain. Même si Toys For Bob bénéficie d'une plus grande liberté de création en tant que studio indépendant, la possibilité d'un futur opus reste un point d'interrogation, laissant les fans attendre avec impatience toute nouvelle.

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment. However, there have been longstanding rumors and industry speculation regarding Bend Studio’s future, particularly after the release of Days Gone in 2019.
Here’s what’s known:

Days Gone, developed by Bend Studio, received mixed to positive reviews but underperformed commercially, which led to internal restructuring at Sony.
In 2020, Sony confirmed that Bend Studio was transitioning from Days Gone to a new, unannounced project — a move that was framed as a strategic shift rather than a cancellation of future work.
There were unconfirmed reports and rumors in 2021 and 2022 suggesting that Bend Studio had reduced staff, potentially due to shifting priorities or a focus on a new internal project. These rumors were never officially confirmed by Sony or Bend Studio.
In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down.

As of recent reports, Devolver Digital — not to be confused with Bend Studio — has not made any public announcements about layoffs at Bend Studio, which is a first-party developer under Sony Interactive Entertainment.

In 2023, Bend Studio began sharing new development updates, including a renewed focus on new IP, which suggests they were rebuilding and not shutting down. So, to clarify: No official job cuts at Bend Studio were confirmed by Sony or the studio itself. The term "cuts" may be a misinterpretation or exaggeration of internal restructuring or staff reallocation. The studio is still active and reportedly working on a new, undisclosed project — potentially a fresh IP, not a sequel to Days Gone. In short: There is no verified evidence of layoffs at Bend Studio. The studio is in a transition phase, focusing on a new, unknown project — common in the industry after a major title release. Bend Studio remains operational and part of Sony’s first-party development network.
