<p>Ever since Banjo and Kazooie were officially confirmed as <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/super_smash_bros_ultimate"><strong>Super Smash Bros. Ultimate</strong></a> fighters <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/06/banjo-kazooie_confirmed_for_super_smash_bros_ultimate_this_fall">last summer</a>, rumours and speculation surrounding new games and remasters for Rare’s legendary series have been doing the rounds online. One such rumour suggests that Playtonic, a studio housing plenty of ex-Rare staff, is helping Rare, Microsoft, or both to create a new title.</p>
<p>Today, and <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/11/no_playtonic_games_isnt_making_a_new_banjo-kazooie_or_joining_microsoft">not for the first time</a>, Playtonic Games has taken to social media to gently let down any fans believing such rumours to be true.</p>
<aside class="object object-tweet">
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" align="center" readability="4.5790697674419"><p><span lang="en" dir="ltr" readability="4.3235294117647">They’re rumours.</p>
<p>We aren’t working on a new Banjo game. </p>
<p>We’re clarifying this because we don’t like the idea of fans getting their hopes up. Sorry. <a href="https://t.co/p7GSpF07jG">https://t.co/p7GSpF07jG</a></p>

<p>Playtonic says, “it’s never fun to come out and say these things, but we’re trying to avoid hopes being pinned on us”.</p>
<p>What the <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/yooka-laylee_and_the_impossible_lair"><strong>Yooka-Laylee</strong></a> developer really <em>is</em> currently up to is being kept under wraps for now, but it might be best to avoid dreaming about any brand new Banjo-Kazooie games guh-huh-ing onto your Switch. Is guh-huh-ing a word? <em>It is now.</em></p>
