Skylanders creator working on “next awesome project”

Toys for Bob, the creator of Activision’s Skylanders IP, worked on the series’ first two games. But this year, Vicarious Visions has been put in charge of Skylanders Swap Force’s main development.

So what’s Toys for Bob up to? They’re certainly alive and well, and the team is busy developing its “next awesome project” – so says a job posting for a concept character artist that we recently discovered.

It doesn’t give much insight as to what Toys for Bob is developing, but the listing does mention that the new employee should “Be able to create characters in cartoony style (not hyper-realistic)” while also being “well versed in human and animal anatomy”. The staffer will also be expected “to create enemy/non-player characters and weapons”.
