Third party Switch ports don't necessarily need to sell as much as PS4 to be successful

That said Crash probably never was a big deal. Even as it sells pretty well, it is a one-off thing. Call of Duty releases regularly and is always big, Skylanders may not so big anymore, but still releases regularly and brings in extra profit with the figurines. Crash simply doesn't matter overall. What managers decide with such projects is nothing the shareholders really care about. So the managers make such decisions with their gut feelings or their personal gaming preferences.

Skylanders is actually on hiatus, this will be the 2nd year in a row with no new title after being a yearly release from 2011-2016. The Toys to Life market has crashed with Skylanders, Disney Infinity & Lego Dimensions all gone at the moment.

The devs behind Skylanders (Vicarious Visions/Toys for Bob) are actually the ones that made the Crash/Spyro remasters and since these remasters are/will be multimillion sellers, i think these devs might get assigned to making new entries in the Crash/Spyro franchises.

Hmm, interesting if they actually revive Crash. I'm not sure if it is revival for Spyro, as he was around somehow, but probably as a game IP it is revival too. Let's see how that works out.
