Activision had successfully brought back the Crash Bandicoot franchise with remasters of the N. Sane Trilogy and Crash Team Racing, but come October, they are looking to explore new ground. Just in, we have our first trailer for the next traditional Crash game, Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time.
Here’s the logline:
While there have been multiple entries in the Crash franchise before the remaster, it looks like the devs are going to be ignoring it, making this game a direct sequel to Crash Bandicoot: Warped. This could be a blow to fans who enjoyed Wrath of Cortex, but maybe Activision can find ways for other fan favorites to come to the game.
We don’t have a full breakdown of what the story will be for It’s About Time. It may stay true to the core Crash Bandicoot formula, with Cortex planning his revenge and Crash and Coco running around special maps trying to collect certain items. We can also expect those special missions which require vehicles or different terrain.
Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time is set to come out for the Xbox One and PS4 on Oct. 9.
