A few days ago, through our official X account, we asked users what remakes they would like to see of Xbox 360 games, and although the majority opted for Lost Odyssey, and surprisingly for Project Gotham Racing 3, the truth is that there were several of you who asked us The return of a new Banjo-KazooieWhether it was with the return of the game for Microsoft's second console, or with a completely new installment, many of you would like to see this duo again on your screens.
There have been rumours for quite some time that Xbox is working on a new Banjoo-Kazooie, with the franchise even being considered for a feature at one of the company's Summer Showcases at one point. However, Windows Central member Jez Corden has spoken about the possibility of seeing a new installment in the series on the Xbox Two podcast. It's not good news.
Jez Corden rules out a new Banjo-Kazooie in the works
The well-known writer has “categorically” denied that Xbox is working on a new Banjo-Kazooie at the moment. At the end of last year, there were several rumors that the franchise would be making a comeback in the future, but it seems that, according to Corden's information, it is something that had absolutely no basis.
I can tell you right now, categorically, that there are no Banjo games in development as of this podcast. As of June 26, 2024, there are no Banjo games in development right now.
As we said, this contrasts with the previous information we had about the franchise, since it was said that, despite not receiving the green light until last year, It seemed that Xbox wanted to give prominence to the famous duo againHowever, Corden is a recognized voice in the industry, especially for having direct contact with sources from the company, so there is a possibility that the project that was once mentioned was finally cancelled.
