  • @_mikey166
    This is EXACTLY how any future Banjo games should look, sound & feel. Incredible work 👏🏼
  • @iratepirate3896
    Banjo Threeie is the game I have been waiting for for quarter of a century
  • As a 35 year old man who had a great childhood playing games, Banjo has always had a special place in my heart. This trailer made me want to hope for a 3rd one again. One day...
  • @puppetier1313
    You torture me with a tease like this, but I love your work everyone who helped to make this. Please beg microsoft and Rare to not sue and give your blessings to make this.
  • @readyupwait6138
    This is the level of detail old school reboots / remasters should be getting.
  • The creativity behind the levels, characters and themes are completely mind boggling. Rare could never say there's no more room for creativity for this series after seeing this.
  • @lolrus5555
    Ahhhh man, so much about this trailer is so damn cool. I particularly loved how you took the unused concept of the 'Toymaker' from Nuts & Bolts and are turning him into a full-fledged main villain for this!
  • @KhaoShung
    man.... this would be the best release in the last 10 years of gaming
  • @KaiserAfini
    That feels like classic Banjo-Kazooie, kudos to the entire team, you did an amazing job.
  • @ShinzuMusic
    That's completely insane. The creativity behind this trailer, with all sorts of Banjos: knit toy Banjo, square Banjo, etc is astounding. You guys should definitely apply for a creative director job at Microsoft because that's genuinely one of the best, most nostalgic trailer i've seen. I'd pre-order this without hesitation. Thank you for all the hard work you put into this.
  • @nils920
    Shut up and take my money!
  • @Grimwinn
    Showing the title after Banjo swimming feels like a reference to that old banjo threeie cover everyone uses
  • @Zoniko
    This is the Truly "Project Dream"
  • @demonletsplays
    I would love for this to be a full-fledged game eventually
  • @Lightning-ig2do
    That image of the puppeteer controlling both Banjo and Gruntilda has some fascinating implications!
