It seems that the Crash Bandicoot series could be close to receiving another game, this time with the presence of multiplayer mode. At least that is what the well-known journalist Jez Corden says. Check out all the information related to the upcoming Crash Bandicoot multiplayer game below.
New Crash Bandicoot Multiplayer Game Announcement This Week
According to the information, the future Crash Bandicoot game would be developed by Toys for Bob, the same as Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time. In fact, the studio would already be working on the new project.
If a confirmation comes, it would be a surprise to fans of the franchise. That’s because Activision Blizzard had already ordered the developer’s work on Call of Duty Warzone, last year.
The journalist Jez Corden added that the idea for the Crash Bandicoot multiplayer game is for it to be a four-player fishing game. The information brings to mind Crash Bash, the last in the series released for PlayStation 1, which was created by Eurocom and had a mechanic in this style, but not yet with online gameplay. However, it is worth mentioning that there are still no details about the next game.
Here’s what Windows Central’s Jez Corden said in a podcast: “New Crash? I wonder where you got that information from? I wasn’t supposed to leak that. I think we could see a new Crash Bandicoot, and not only is it gonna be a new Crash Bandicoot, it’s gonna be a multiplayer Crash Bandicoot… It’s like a four-player brawler almost, but Crash oriented.”
Despite being well received by the public, Crash Bandicoot 4: It’s About Time ended up with fewer units sold than the remastered Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy – from the defunct Vicarious Visions – and Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled – made by Beenox.
It is worth noting that Activision Blizzard has not yet confirmed whether it has actually ordered a new Crash game. The company was bought by Microsoft for nearly $70 million in early 2022 and is awaiting regulatory approvals for the deal to complete.
