Phil Spencer’s wardrobe choice hints at Battletoads’ return

The pause menu theme from Battletoads is in your head now. Embrace it, along with the hope that Battletoads will return soon, as Phil Spencer, who has a history of hinting at new game releases with his choices of shirt, took stage at the Windows 10 event today wearing a Battletoads tee.

Polygon has outlined both the shirt and a Spencer tweet from November that hinted at what Rare was working on next, but the dots look to be connecting a picture of “toads with ‘tude”. It seems like the world is ready for a Battletoads revival, even if in my opinion the original is more fondly remembered than it deserves.

While there is no official confirmation yet, if history repeats then we will be hearing about the new Battletoads shortly.
