Hey guys! It's your lad, Galaxy Gaymer!
Franchises showing their versatility can be a vital part of keeping it both successful and relevant. Mario has games like Mario Maker, Pokemon has so many spinoff series, and nearly every series has had a kart racer at some point. Realising how many franchises have branched out to multiple genres has me thinking, what are some of the coolest games we could see in the future from my favourite franchises? Let's talk about that.
Yooka Laylee:
Yooka Laylee is the kind of franchise that may only be in the beginning of its lifespan still, meaning it could easily branch out into genres. We have already seen the 3D collectathon from the franchise, and even a 2.5D games coming soon, but what about a building game? Yooka Laylee is reminiscent of not only Banjo Kazooie, but Mario 64, and I truly think that it could have a Super Mario Maker styled game that could be extremely successful. As long as the game keeps the charm of the series, it could become so much more than just spiritual successor to Banjo.
Digimon:
There have been a lot of amazing Digimon games over the last 22 years. We have seen turn based adventure games, Smash styled fighting games, and even a lesser known racing game. I think Digimon would benefit from almost a Skyrim typed adventure where you digivolve, cool scenes like the anime and all, and you just have to survive with your digi-destined partner. I know this is kind of the same premise as Survive, but I think an open world RPG such as this would be epic.
Pokemon:
I feel like a series like Pokemon would benefit from a little bit of a revamp someday. I have always really loved the animations that happen on-screen before battles and encounters, but I feel like it is not always required. The best way to have a fresh take on this would be to have the wild Pokemon basically just walk straight up to you, same with the trainers, and the actual battle sequence even having them physically touching during battles, kind of like Pokken Tournament. This type of RPG would be really amazing if it was to come to the series.
Banjo Kazooie:
Banjo Kazooie is my favourite game of all time, but like many, I wish there were more spinoff series. We have had a racing game, platformers, and even a car building game that honestly, wasn't as bad as people say. One genre I would love to see from Banjo in the future would be a party game. How adorable would it be having all the amazing characters of the series like Banjo, Kazooie, Tootie and Mumbo playing a board game styled game run by Grunty? I feel like it would be even better than Mario Party if done correctly.
Animal Crossing:
We need an Animal Crossing racing game. It could be the most amazing and adorable game with potentially the biggest racing roster of all time. I know Isabelle is already in Mario Kart, but so are some of the characters of Diddy Kong racing. I would love to see the cute cars of my favourite characters such as Digby, Isabelle and Reese, and just feel complete happiness while playing it. Plus, the weapons and items could be insanely cool.

Have a nice day!
