Sabreman's appearance in ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' was not much more than as a minor character. [[Banjo]] and [[Kazooie]] discover his frozen body on the icy side of [[Hailfire Peaks]] clutching a [[Jiggy|familiar-shaped treasure]]. But just trying to heat up his frozen self will not work because he is dead. The first step in rescuing this lost explorer is to use [[Mumbo Jumbo]] to bring him back to life; however, this still leaves poor Sabreman cold in the snow, requiring you to heat him up with [[Fire Eggs]], [[Hatch]] or [[Dragon Kazooie]]. Then Banjo must use the [[Taxi Pack]] to bring him back to the fire side of Hailfire Peaks. Once all is done and well, Sabreman will give the pair the Jiggy he found and hit the hay, where he sleeps perpetually for the remainder of the game.

Notably, while Sabreman sleeps, he talks in his sleep and says "I wonder what adventures await me...maybe I'll ride a dolphin." As at the time, Rare was still part of [[wikipedia:Nintendo|Nintendo]] and their [[wikipedia:Gamecube|next platform had]] been going by the codename of "Dolphin," many players speculated that Rare was using this as foreshadowing for a future next-gen Sabreman title. If this title ever existed, it's never been leaked and Sabreman's future game was released on the Game Boy Advance instead. A later next-gen Sabreman title, ''Sabreman Stampede'', was a reworked version of ''Donkey Kong Racing'', a title Rare had been working on for Nintendo until their purchase by [[wikipedia:Microsoft|Microsoft]]. Sadly, while beta footage of the game leaked in 2008 showing the game was now a full-fledged platforming adventure, the game was quietly canceled in 2007. The only "next-gen" appearance of Sabreman was in the 2009 ''[[Banjo-Tooie]]'' port for the Xbox Live Arcade.

*'''Sabreman:''' That's so much better!<br />'''Banjo:''' Glad to help an old hero.<br />'''Sabreman:''' Being frozen for so long has tired me. I need a cup of tea and 40 winks. Could yo possibly help me out one more time?<br />'''Kazooie:''' Of course. This sounds like a job for you, Banjo!<br />'''Sabreman:''' Can you carry me back to my tent? It's over on the fiery side of the mountain... If it hasn't burnt down by now.

*'''Sabreman:''' My tent! My equipment! It's just as I left it all those years ago!<br />'''Banjo:''' It's probably worthless anyway.<br />'''Sabreman:''' My treasue is still here too! You may have it, kind sir. It's a fine golden jigsaw piece. No use to me - I'm hanging up my boots.
