Recently, head of Rare Studio Craig Duncan has stated that they'd be up for allowing another developer handle one of their other IPs. Since 2015, fans have been wondering about Banjo-Kazooie's inclusion in Super Smash Bros. Phil Spencer Executive at Xbox Divisions said he's interested yet again. 

Could Playtonic Games pick up Banjo-Kazooie? Will the bear and bird be included in the upcoming Super Smash Bros for the Nintendo Switch?
