It hurts a lot.

Chances of a new Banjo Kazooie are slim. Chances of It looking this good are slimmer.

Here’s the full reveal, with the devs talking as well.

In the other video I posted the guy says that the devs told him that they are not having a performance or quality mode, just one mode. They are not reaching 60fps right now but are working as hard as they can to get it up there for current gen.

If they can’t get it at 60fps I say make it 30fps and have it look as good as possible. They also said they might do something for PS5 Pro.

I recall a rumor not too long ago, that some things had changed but it’s still a thing. Honestly, it’s not a thing at all in my book until it’s officially announced.

We are sadly not in the 360 gen where you could pitch and put something together in 2-3 years. Any proper studio for it would not be realistically available to start on something until 2025 the earliest and that would be the Avowed team assuming they even want that and have a pitch for it, and that would release in 4-5 years after, the Fallout show is likely to last 6-7 years though so they could still cash on its existence with a game, though it’s not likely to be the mainline 5.

Usually those fan made teasers look pretty bland but this one looks surprisingly good!

Also I don’t think we are getting a new Banjo game anytime soon…but T4B is making a new Spyro game which could turn out amazing considering how good Crash 4 was so it’s not all doom and gloom as far as 3d platformers go (plus the next 3d Mario game is coming relatively soon).

I am pretty confident that a new Banjo is actively in the works.

Who is going to make them?

Why do you keep posting this? Go tweet Phil on X if you want to throw his quotes back at him.

Who do you think is making it?

As for people wishing to get a new Fallout way sooner, same here, I feel you 100%. It’s a bit depressing to think of how long the wait is going to be. But the reality also is…who would make a spin off? What other studio can handle their engine?

At least there’s still the remake of 3, or well maybe it’s a remaster. But tbh, F3 right now on XSX is a remaster already with 4K/60fps. Truly wonder what will be different.

No idea, haha. I’m not as anti-insider as most and that combined with the name Banjo coming out of Phil’s mouth is all I need to give it some more support. I think many people here thinks Phil likes to flap his gums, but dude is always hinting (whether it’s a t-shirt, something on his shelf, or some seemingly off the cuff comment in an interview).

What did Phil say regarding Banjo?

And true, he isn’t really the kind of person to just talk, talk, talk. I am hoping that him talking about Steam and Epic store on Xbox is more than just him hoping for it. :slight_smile:

I recently read Sumo Digital has 3 unnanounced games :thinking:

“Banjo Fans, we hear you”

He said this a few months back when he was talking about how they like to tease things. I took his comments as him saying they plan to make a new Banjo game, but it might not be in development at this moment.

Regarding Banjo, it was just:

Banjo fans, I hear you.

Which was part of a larger quote about revisiting older franchises. Here’s a bit more context:

You’ve seen from our history that we haven’t touched every franchise that people would love us to touch — Banjo fans, I hear you. But it is true that, when we find the right team, and the right opportunity, I love going back to revisit stories and characters that we’ve seen previously.

No clue, but there could potentially be a studio that think its worth taking a shot as a spinoff. I know FO76 gets updates still, but I feel it’s still a crazy long gap between games in a valuable franchise

Anyone buy No Rest for the Wicked in steam? Considering but wanted some user feedback first :joy:

Imagine if they were to shock and surprise us all come June with a announcement trailer, haha. Nah, I’m not kidding myself, but still, it would be so good. As long as none of those insiders spoil the fun.

Speaking of insiders, the whole BK thing started by one. Although I’m not sure if that person was guessing or really heard something but it sounded like Sumo, and that it was at least in development. But really who knows.
