Rumors surrounding the next project from Toys For Bob are intensifying. Evidence suggests the former Activision Blizzard studio is actively developing a new Spyro entry after the success of the Reignited Trilogy. A fresh clue from a developer’s profile supports this theory.

 

The Spyro Leak on LinkedIn Explained

YouTuber Canadian Guy Eh uncovered a significant detail on professional networking site LinkedIn. The information confirms Toys For Bob is likely working on an unannounced project tied to the iconic purple dragon.

The evidence comes from the profile of Donald Yatami. He served as a Senior Concept Artist at the studio between August 2022 and March 2024. Before this, he held long tenures at Bend Studio and PlayStation.

Yatami lists only two projects during his time at the studio: Call of Duty and Spyro.

This detail is critical. The timing rules out Spyro Reignited Trilogy, which launched in 2018. It also contradicts the theory that his work was solely for Crash Team Rumble. Spyro content arrived in Crash Team Rumble in December 2023, but concept art occurs much earlier in the production pipeline.

 

Why the Dates Point to a New Spyro Game

The timeline strengthens the argument for a standalone game. Toys For Bob faced layoffs in January 2024 before spinning off as an independent studio. However, Yatami remained until March.

His retention suggests he was working on an active project. Specifically, his expertise lies in pre-visualization. This phase defines the creative foundation of a new title, implying he helped shape the vision for a fresh Spyro game.

This aligns with previous leaks. In late 2023, an unrelated former game designer listed an “unannounced project” on their CV.

 

The Xbox and Toys For Bob Partnership

These clues fit the broader industry context. In May 2024, Toys For Bob officially announced a partnership with Xbox to publish their next game.

Microsoft now owns the IP following the Activision Blizzard acquisition. A new mainline Spyro title would be a massive asset for Game Pass and the Xbox ecosystem. The theory of a cancelled project holds little water; all signs point to active development.

 

In Conclusion: Is Spyro 4 Finally Happening?

The evidence is mounting. While official confirmation is still pending, the specific dates and role descriptions on staff profiles paint a clear picture. Toys For Bob appears committed to the franchise that defines their legacy.

For fans waiting since the PS1 era or the 2018 remakes, this is the strongest signal yet that the dragon is returning.

Do you think we will see a reveal trailer before the end of the year?
