June 10, 2026 - 18:18

A well-known insider who previously leaked the return of Spyro the Dragon has now hinted that another beloved mascot from the mid-1990s might be making a comeback. The source, who has a track record of accurate leaks, claims that a new game featuring this iconic character is currently in development.

While the insider did not name the character directly, speculation is running high among fans. The most likely candidate is Crash Bandicoot, who has already seen a successful remastered trilogy and a recent fourth installment. However, other names like Croc, Gex, or even Tomba are being tossed around. The key detail is that the character was a major PlayStation mascot during the 1990s, a time when platformers and colorful characters dominated the market.

The gaming industry has seen a strong trend of reviving classic franchises, from Spyro and Crash to more obscure titles. If this rumor holds true, it would mark yet another attempt by publishers to tap into nostalgia. For now, fans are left guessing which forgotten hero will get a second chance. The insider has promised more details soon, but no official announcement has been made by any publisher or developer.
