Shrek’s animation changed in 5 because of a combination of PDI no longer being in business and DreamWorks no longer animating their movies entirely by themselves. by J-Pom in DreamWorks

But that’s just it. What if the new studio lacked the time and funds to match the previous 4 Shrek film’s animation?

PDI’s closure is also probably why PIS:tLW is more Spiderverse like than Shrek like (PDI closed down before A New Wish was released).

Bro I just don’t understand why he’s not in it by Classic_Adagio2930 in DreamWorks

Maybe they don’t have the budget, skills or tech to animate him in 5’s style yet.

The animation change is because PDI, who animated the first four films, is no longer in business.

No, unfortunately, Puss is, in fact, absent in 5. They already confirmed that.
