The Temple Guards would finally get a nerf in the 2021 reboot, as teams are guaranteed two full pendants from the Temple Games to give them, making it impossible for a Temple Guard to end the run.
In some cases, this led to the partner wasting time in that room trying to unlock a door that's already unlocked, for example, pulling on ropes in the Tomb of the Headless Kings.
Some fans were excited while others wished they'd just do a straight revival of the series instead.
The announcement that the show would be getting rebooted as a TV movie.You can listen to all of the music from the series here.And the music that plays after successfully making it out of the temple with the artifact is perfect for the sense of accomplishment.The revival lives up to it with an urgent orchestral adventure theme that would sound right at home in Uncharted. The Temple Run theme really made that last three minutes feel like a life-and-death struggle.
