Studio Toys for Bob, under the umbrella of Activision, known for their work on the Skylanders series, Spyro game remasters, Crash Bandicoot 4, and recently aiding in the development of Call of Duty, has announced their separation as an independent studio from Activision and Microsoft.

The studio cites this as an opportune time to return to their roots as a small studio. This separation has received strong support from Activision and Microsoft. Currently, the studio is working on undisclosed new game projects that may involve collaboration with Microsoft in the future.

TLDR: Toys for Bob, previously under Activision, has separated to become an independent studio, focusing on returning to their small studio origins and working on new game projects with potential collaboration with Microsoft.
