Xbox CEO Name Drops Skylanders | Skylanders In Crash Team Rumble? 

To be fair, toys for bob did mention during an interview about crash bandicoot team rumble earlier this year that Skylanders 7 might be happening.

I’m just glad that Skylanders has not been forgotten. Although no new content has come out for it in years, the franchise is still recognized and acknowledged as something with potential going into the future, and that makes me very happy!!

You touched on it in this video but one thing I respect immensely about Toys For Bob is their unwillingness to back down about Skylanders. At the time of its' heyday, it was really only kids who enjoyed it, the only people who'd actually be vocal about the franchise were older Crash and Spyro fans who didn't enjoy that direction. It must've been quite discouraging for TFB. Once the Skylanders brand fell dormant and Spyro and Crash essentially took its' place as the new "Activision's main kids franchise" releases, it would've been really easy for TFB to basically never bring Skylanders up again; leave that franchise to die completely in the 2010s so they could fully get back in the good books with the vocal audience they were now developing for. Instead, TFB have stuck by their creation. Not super loudly, but in a silently persistent way. Consistently shoving in little references here and there (slipping *anything* Skylanders into Spyro Reignited was such a power move lol), hosting anniversary celebrations for the games simply because they want to, quietly but unapologetically supporting community works (i.e fanart and customs and whatnot), etc. They have a very respectable backbone, sticking with Skylanders like that. As a fan it's extremely comforting, it shows beyond a shadow of a doubt that those people truly do *care* about that franchise, just as much as we do.

If a Skylander gets added to crash rumble I will buy the game

seeing this. and this guy's philosophy of "devs should make what they want to make" gives me hope not just for the skylanders series. but modern gaming as a whole. you gotta appreciate someone who's genuinely passionate about gaming and knows that a game won't be good if the developers don't want to work on it. if we're gonna get skylanders in crash team rumble though then completing the original 3 with trigger happy and gill grunt feels like the obvious choice since those are probably what most people think of when they think of skylanders... but with a roster extending over 150 characters there's too much stuff they could do with it

Not only Toys for Bob; even CTR Nitro-Fueled, a Crash game developed by Beenox, had hidden references to Skylanders, mostly through Spyro content from the third Grand Prix. And I'm pretty sure the mobile game Crash On The Run had a few of their own, with the boss Dark Spyro taking more from Skylanders than from the Spyro series himself (even though it is acknowledged that Dark Spyro was a thing since The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night). Well, I wish you a happy Skylanders comeback.

Ya know i think this is the first time ive had a genuine glimmer of hope that skylanders could return somehow and i dont know how to feel about it If skylanders does return i will be more excited than i ever have been

I feel like Toys For Bob might resort to Skylanders in Rumble at some point, and if not that then one of their other projects, simply because Rumble is so reliant on recycled assets and is starting to run short of Crash content from their portfolio that they haven't already added. They are supposedly adding a haul of newly made characters related to Crash next year, though I can see another stopgap happening, since it has only a small section of TFB working on it, maybe next Winter like the Spyro themed event.

Something to remember about Toys for Bob returning to Skylanders is that a lot of employees that worked on the Skylanders games in the past have since moved on, especially with the top dogs Not saying a sky 7 would be bad but probably different

I think we can all agree that Skylanders is a franchise where we’re not wondering, “Is it gonna return?” but instead, “When is it gonna return?”

I guess if we ever do get Team Rumble Landers, I could see Tree Rex being a blocker. Trigger Happy could be a booster. And maybe they could tug on our strings with a left field kinda pick.

If they did bring it to Xbox, they would probably have to get rid of the toys to life concept. While it would suck it probably wouldn’t work to well nowadays. The way I could see it working now is either an online store you buy from or more preferable have an unlock system implemented. Plus, they could probably implement something where you could scan old toys you have to unlock them for free.

The whole first part of the video for me was waiting for gill grunt in the footage to hit that level up

I’d prefer we get Kaos and Flynn (or other npcs) before any of the already playable skylanders

Fun fact so in the data mine for the game there is a stealth elf themed skin for Elora

a city of arkus map would be insane.

Every time Boom uploads, it cures my depression temporarily

They're not saying they ARE going to bring back Skylanders but they're not saying that they are NOT bringing it back so there's still hope

0:25 skylanders news really isn't my thing, surprised I wasn't on the F tier with everybody else lmao I'm just glad people aren't trying to create false hope by covering it, or spreading false rumors all over again...

I feel like "all fired up" in crash team rumble is a skylanders homage, also they talked abt releasing a remastered spyro game so thats definitely cool

No way if Skylanders comes back I will cry 😭😢

If we do get a new skylanders game I just hope It's either SSA and giants remastered for Xbox one OR a updated battle mode

As someone who grew up with Skylanders, I wouldn't mind a potential comeback at some point in the future. BUT, not before Spyro 4. That should happen before anything else relating to the Spyro brand.

been saying this since CTRumble's first gameplay trailer but skylanders are absolutely possible in this game, the attack systems are the same even down to the 1-2-3 combos and so many characters from skylanders could genuinely really work for this game, also if they do a similar release format to spyro's with villain first then main characters i could totally see us getting Kaos, stealth elf, and eruptor Also if SpongeBob's jellyfish dance song is in this game you know damn well chill bill's theme will be a top performer music

"hope dies last" and it will never die! Another big leak (hopefully) for skylanders! either in CTR or a new game! You really did your best to get everything out of this video! Congrats! and we all hope TFB still have the passion to do some skylander things! they are all special kind of portal masters, and you too!

Well it would be awesome to a remake you also got to think it would be different like they probably give you the option to buy figures like boom said

"Greetings portal master, I am eon... You have not visited the sky islands in a very long time... But don't worry, kaos nor the other villainous bad-doers have done anything to harm the sky islands... Hopefully it stays that way... Goodbye portal master... Hopefully we meet again."

I feel like for skylanders to return it might have to innovate the analog part of it. Toys to life died off, so a change in the formula might be needed for it to succeed the way they want it to. Not that I need it to change though.

lets just pray for a skylanders remaster in the future

I think if anything skylanders related drops, I would legitimately cry. I found an old SSA strategy guide collecting dust in my school library and it literally made my entire day, so I think if anything NEW came out it would be over for me. I’d have to lock myself in my room for a week before I could function in society again

hmmm I wouldent be surprised if they tried to add games from the classic games of spyro and crash I mean that would be like Spyro reignited and Skylanders timelines coming face to face and intercecting at a kind of intercetion point between both gaming universes involving both gaming timeline universes and IPs

Phil Spenser is our only way to bring up not only skylanders, but the whole game industry.

"Take this as a grain of salt" IM TAKING IT AS A WATER BOTTLE FULL OF SALT! MORE HOPE, SO MUCH MORE HOPE, NOBODY CAN HAVE MORE HOPE THEN ME!

The fact that Xbox’s CEO is down for devs to revive old franchises and TFB loves Skylanders is actually the best (and only true) news we’ve had since 2016.

Thank you boombringer I hope we get a remake of the first 3 games with all skylanders playable or a new game spitfire and snapshot are some of my favorite to play as the only bad thing i could say about them is that they're in later games i want to bring them back to the previous 3 games why because they're fun.

I wish we had more skylanders related stuff (Monkey's paw curls)

As someone who works in a used video game store, PLEASE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DO NOT BRING BACK SKYLANDERS. THERE ARE TOO DAMN MANY OF THEM AS IT IS.

I like how we're just really excited about being mentioned lol

A thought: gamepass + skylanders. Would it be too farfetched to have it included in the subscription? figurines aside (at least in this scenario), I wonder if they could design an in-game unlock system with some reworks to allow new players to try the franchise without spending a fortune. The last 3 major releases of skylanders makes me think of the crash/spyro trilogies... Perhaps something is in the works for those.

It makes sense if they add a Skylanders character as Spyro was after Ripto which wouldn’t make sense unless they are gonna segway to Skylanders which would make more sense than if it was after Ripto

I really, really hope that *something* happens. Of course, that's just me hoping. I doubt that they would recontinue the series with a new game, so I'm hoping for a dlc for an existing game.

To add to it comingback . KFC brought skylanders back somewhat with this ad ( KFC |Made Your Decision | Wraps Holiday | :15 ) which used one of the greatest songs in skylanders which would be Chill Bill Theme. 🥶🥶🥶 "Coincidence, I think NOT" EDIT: ALL THE KFC WRAPS ADVERTISEMENTS HAVE THE CHILL BILL THEME SONG AND THE COMMENTS HAVE CHILL BILL ON MOSTLY ALL OF IT.

I only came here cause of that spongebob xbox incident who that guy left the game but discord said "playing spongebob for 2 hours"

10:26 on bottom screen, i think that's a game library but on the top screen i think it could be skylander main menu. at the bottom of the screen you can something that i think it's a flying island and in front of it you can see sky with clouds which seem to be under the island, and also you can see in right top corner something with a shape and earhty color of an bottom of an flying island. it could be hype tho EDIT: also icon on the left kinda looks like a ship one on the center kinda looks like a snake

I hope Smolderdash is added (Wonder where I can ask or suggest)

Ty for keepin us updated

Also just imagine if they do make a new Skylanders game, they make the figures digital things to buy for those that don’t have any figures, like fortnite skins

I want trigger happy in Fortnite

those 3 skylanders games are the 3 skylanders games that have instant skylanders so you could actually play them without a portal.

With how company’s have been destroying their ips lately do we really want it back

When the Gaming is Epic

If skylanders came back I feel like it would be like starlink where you can get a physical figure but you can also buy it digitally

I remember when I saw crash and Neo. Cortex as sensei skylanders figures and got them immediately.

If They just add backward compatability for giants and ssa ill be happy

I would crea- i mean scream out of hapiness if we ever see skylanders being revisited🤤🤤

I loved Skylanders as a kid and genuinely would love if it returned, but if it does I think that the toys to life aspect needs to be mostly left behind

I honestly don’t really care for Crash Team Rumble. But if they actually add Skylanders, I’m going to buy it

Honestly enough times passed that they could drop a new sky landers game and Aslong as it’s better than the last three toys to life would defo come back

They should make sky landers be in other game genres too

The blured screen looks to me like the skylanders giants menu screen.

I remember those skulls from Crash 4 too.

Can't wait for another peaklanders by peak for bob

Even if it's not a Skylander specifically, I'd think even one of the npcs/villains from the series would fit perfectly in the game (My heart's set on Kaos, but that's just me-)

R.I.P.

Also there is a music pack in crash team rumble called rip hop it sounds like broccoli guy’s theme

We need a Remastered or 7th game. 😢

The Xbox 360 port of SSA and giants would be a great addition to gamepass in my opinion as both games aren’t available on next gen consoles.

I prey for a skylanders remake everyday.

If we can't have a new Skylanders game, skylanders appearing in Crash Team Rumble would be awesome. But if we get a new Skylanders series, that would be boomtastic. I do wonder what would Skylanders 7 be about as the last game is about creating your own skylanders. How can Toys for Bob surpass that ultimate gimmick? My (uninspired) idea for Skylanders 7 would be about guest stars like; Shrek, Megamind, SpongeBob, Zuko, Sans, Papyrus, Jevil, Spamton, Birdly, Guilmon, Renamon, Cloud and Sephiroth from Final Fantasy 7 and Crono from Chrono Trigger.

Could you possibly give your ideas for a Skylanders 7? I know many others have done it but it’s fun to hear from different people and you never know, they might actually listen to the RU-vidrs keeping the games alive (and let’s face it if they let SB&G do the song for the credits of imaginators then they should listen to current people). Also how is that college going, I’m in dual enrollment and know it can be stressful at times.

I'd be fine with Skylander characters being added, but only after we get at least a season or two of proper Crash characters. We had two seasons in a row of Spyro. Best to take a break between Guest characters.

what if toys for bob is already secretly working on skylanders 7 (like god of war the dlc was rumors for almost a year but no real comfirmation till the week before the release) and i would like to see in the crash team rumble like whole new characters people would be like who is this and if a new skylander game comes out that charater could be in the game donno but would be cool foreshadowing and like a little tease without comfirmation

we gotta trust in skylanders 7

Dude you already got 30k INSANE

It seems like a nice idea for them to bring back a classic like skylanders but it just seems too far out of reach especially with stuff like cloud gaming on the quest 3 like how would skylanders work with that

As an old school spyro fan, I don't mind skylanders characters being added to Crash team rumble, as long as they keep the reignited design for Spyro because the skylanders design for him was hot garbage. Heck, throw in Cynder from legend of spyro too, give those fans a bone. Even Banjo and Conker can get in for all I care, as long as Spyro don't look like he fused with a pug, I'm good.

Hopefully this a new skylanders game will finally announce at summer game fest

I mean i all ready have crash team rumble, but i havent played since launch and this might get me playing again also when phil spencer was talking about what he wanted to bring back i was suprised he didnt mention voodoo vince, since he has said it was his favorite game to work on (probably due to the unique engine)

We need skylanders 7 game trailer to published.😭😢

It's a Christmas miracle.

Wow boombringer you must really like SpongeBob slam!

Speaking of elephant I’m still hoping for elephant skylander or woolly mammoth or mastodon their close to elephants

Skylanders Forever!!

Hey, I am a TfB and Crash/Spyro fan, and just wanted to leave some input. All the nods to Skylanders even All Fired Up is completely intentional. But as you said references aren’t really evidence of anything, they love the franchise but that’s all it says. I think it needs to be said that their next project will be Spyro 4 as they’ve been hinting it for a long time. This is the general expectations to have, but I will say the current studio head at TfB has been someone who’s been at the core of creating Skylanders games. It’s all up in the air still, but it’s food for thought

Im using a ton of my rng gacha luck to make sure another Skylanders games is made

gill grunt in fortnite

Skylander 7 i guested

Im happy about the acquisition. I think Xbox is the best house for TFB because they will have the freedom to do what they want.

0:24 thats a good way to lose freinds

Crash team rumble.....WHO??? 🗣💯🔥🔥

I hope it comes on steam

I think the teams want to revisit classic verisons like spyro 4 or crash 5.

Wait, what if it's like Spyro and Crash? Maybe they are making a Skylanders collection!

That sounds like a little bit of hope to me

I can't believe my favorite youtuber would reuse old gameplay footage. Truly disgusting, that some people would do this horrible thing.

All I want for Christmas is skylanderssssssss

If they were to port any skylanders game to pc or switch it would be amazing

in all honestly if they bring back skylanders I would be happy if they get to do a test with crash rumble I think that would be cool the one thing I do wonder is if they got a new game would they bring back toys to life on one hand I would like to see toy to life back but on the over hand I think they would end up being expensive and I don't think stories would want to care that anymore but if we got just a solid skylanders game I would be happy because they had a really nice world and fun characters that was one of the biggest parts of it and if we got the chance to play as are favorite skylanders again I think that would be prefect but this could just be me

Unrelated but just found my old imaginators disk

Ngl when he said bread I felt that 😔✌️🕊️🥶🥶🥶
