Announced as part of Nintendo Direct, Nintendo Switch players
will make history as the first three original Crash Bandicoot games
arrive on a Nintendo platform. With Nintendo Switch, fans can spin,
jump, wump and repeat as they take on the epic challenges and
adventures from the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy either
on the go in handheld mode or from the comfort of their living
rooms in TV mode.
Giving fans more UMPH in their WUMP, July 10 also marks the
first time that the original three Crash Bandicoot games will
appear on the family of Xbox One devices from Microsoft, including
the Xbox One X. The last Crash Bandicoot game that was available on
an Xbox platform was 10 years ago. Now the Xbox community -- that
has been craving to get their hands on the trilogy -- will soon be
able to experience the first three Crash games on their chosen
console.
What’s more, Crash Bandicoot is making his debut on PC when the
Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy launches on Steam. The
release of the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy on Steam
ushers in a new way for gamers to play with a variety of control
options including optimized Steam Controller support, as well as
the ability to play with mouse and keyboard.
The Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy is available now on
PlayStation 4 for the suggested retail price of $39.99. Fans can
pre-order the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy for all new
platforms now for the same suggested retail price.
Activision and Vicarious Visions are honoring the heritage of
Crash throughout the trilogy in a variety of ways. With more than
100 levels to explore, the Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy
fully remastered game offers brand-new lighting, animations,
textures, models and recreated cinematics—all in dazzling “N.
Hanced Fur-K.” The game’s soundtrack is packed with all the
didgeridoos, xylophones and thumpin’ bass lines you can handle, as
well as newly recorded dialogue from some of the familiar voice
actors who appear in the original Crash Bandicoot games, including
Jess Harnell, Lex Lang and Debi Derryberry, among others.
New features of the trilogy include playing as Coco, Crash’s
smart and spirited little sister who comes complete with her own
set of special attacks. Full analog stick support, a unified save
system and checkpoint system makes it easier for new fans to enjoy
the classic adventures, while improved bonus levels and time trials
in this epic trilogy will challenge the hardest of the ‘Coot
core!
