While it's not the news Banjo fans are hoping for, it does sound like Playtonic are gearing up to work on something new, which ❀sounds go🦹od to us.
Original Story: Could Banjo-Kazooie be heading to Project Scarlett? A series of too-suspicious-to-be🎃-circumstantial events has led the internet to believe a new Banjo-Kazooie game is in the works from Playtonic Games, the indie studio made up of former Rare developers currentlꩵy known for retro platformer Yooka-Laylee.
Not only that, but this same internet theory also holds that Playtonic has been acquired by 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft as a first-party Xbox studio, and we could be seeing an announcement of the purcha𝔍se from the stage of the company's XO19 event in London next week.
But where's the evidence for all this rumour? A compelling has outlined every piece of the evolving puzzle so far, beginning with the recent hire of Banjo-Kazooie character artist Ed Bryan to Playtonic's studio in Derby, UK. Bryan himself also acknowledge his new position by of an old Microsoft-branded bag from his Rare days on Twitter, teasing that "it's come out of retirement" when pressed about▨ the cryptic tweet.
Meanwhile, Gavin Price, Playtonic Games co-owner, has also recently to reveal that the studio is working on "game #3, #4 a𝕴nd the #5 one too which is the one I always thought would be game #1", while another ResetEra user discovered that the company as "PLAYTONIC GAMES DEVELOPMENT LIMITED" in September earlier this year.
Banjo-shaped or not, then, something is happening over at Playtonic, and Microsoft's aggressive approach to studio acquisitions of late does lend further plausibility to the idea that the indie team are about to become another first-party developer for the upcoming 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Xbox Project Scarlett. Here's hoping we find out more official details from next week's XO19 event, and you can be sure that GamesRadar+ will cover all the 💟news from the expo as so🦩on as it's announced.
